In a sign of the stronger economic ties between the U.S. and China, Verizon Communications is part of a plan to spend $500 million building the first high-speed optical communications line linking the two countries.

The Trans-Pacific Express, as the line will be called, will be an undersea fiber-optic system that can handle voice and data in huge batches -- the equivalent of 62 million simultaneous phone conversations, according to Verizon.
