Kao Data, a £200M colocation data center campus providing around 150,000 sq. ft. technical space and 35MW power for IT equipment, has started announced its cooperation agreement with Western European bandwidth infrastructure provider, euNetworks. This would enable the delivery of high-density fiber and duct to the Kao Data, Harlow based data center campus north of London.
The new fiber infrastructure would provide unique routing opportunities, taking advantage of Harlow’s strategic location between core hyperscale campuses in Dublin and Amsterdam. It also offers “fast” connection to Slough, to the West of London, and Docklands in the East of London.
“Massive data traffic increase is driving data center market growth. It is essential that Kao Data is investing in guaranteed access to the most advanced and dense data capability,” said Jan Daan Luycks, CEO of Kao Data. “This attracts customers from the widest base, from hyperscalers, financial, retail, media and enterprise. Kao Data’s recent OCP Ready status demonstrates our forward thinking in the market. Combine that with access to euNetworks’ fiber network and it is a compelling customer opportunity.”
