Narrative:
Low hydraulic 2 qty advisory while at cruise; followed by low hydraulic 2 press caution indication. Followed QRH procedure and elected to divert. We elected to be vectored to the longest suitable runway in that point of time. Advised dispatch and maintenance aircraft on runway centerline and waited to be towed safely from the runway. There were no injuries noted or reported; nor any damage to the aircraft. There were no approach charts for the diversion airport which task loaded ATC causing delays in communication.
