Recent developments
We’re working on a number of network and product development projects and deployments. If you’d like to find out more information, get in touch and our Sales team will work with you and answer any questions.
Super Highway - Amsterdam to Frankfurt
Continuing our Super Highway development further into Europe, linking Amsterdam to Frankfurt. We’ve delivered new fibre capacity, new ILA sites, and new route diversity
Brussels metropolitan network
Following the addition of 1,660km of fibre network in Belgium in 2023, we’ve invested in a new duct and fibre-based network in Brussels. Our 41km city network connects key data centres, with more in the pipeline.
Delivering the lowest latency to the Euronext exchange
We completed a series of network optimisations on our ultra-low latency routes from London and Frankfurt to Euronext’s core data centre in Bergamo, Italy.
Quantum communication success on Rockabill
A series of experiments were conducted on our Rockabill subsea network, pushing the boundaries of quantum communication and paving the way for the future security of private data.
Belgium expansion
We’ve expanded in Belgium through the acquisition of a duct-based 1,660km fibre network, adding unique routes in Brussels and across Belgium to the benefit of our customers.
Exclusive partnership to deliver ultra-low latency London to Madrid.
An exclusive partnership on CrossChannel Fibre system to deliver ultra-low latency services to the financial community and a strategic relationship enabling the sale of dark fibre services using the system.
40km hollowcore fibre system deployed
A new 26km deployment of hollowcore fibre, connected to the 14km deployed in September 2022, delivers a global first of 40km end-to-end total system distance with no mid-span amplification.
New ULL route to Basildon & Hollowcore fibre deployment
Delivering a new ULL route between Basildon and London, and the first hybrid route using hollowcore fibre and regular single mode fibre. The route is 10% faster than an equivalent all single mode fibre cable.
Hollowcore fibre deployment
Second commercial deployment of hollowcore fibre, with 7km between Interxion LON1: A Digital realty Company and The London Stock Exchange data centre in London’s Docklands. Data travels 30% faster in hollowcore, with these latency savings hugely significant in financial trading applications.
400G and beyond
400G capability is available for Long Haul and Metro Wavelengths, connecting to key data centre locations and enterprise sites across Western Europe.
Warsaw and Bratislava
Long haul network expansion to Warsaw and Bratislava. Three new routes have been delivered to Warsaw, with newly lit fibre connecting Warsaw directly with Berlin and Hamburg, with the third route via Brno, supporting traffic to Prague, Bratislava and Vienna.
Super Highway – Lowestoft to IJmuiden and onto Amsterdam
Delivering critical infrastructure in the UK and the Netherlands. The latest of euNetworks’ Super Highways, comprising terrestrial build and Scylla, a new high fibre count subsea cable running between Lowestoft and IJmuiden.
Cambridge fibre network expansion
Full-fibre network to link Cambridge research institutions and enterprises to key sites in the UK, across Europe, and globally.
Manchester expansion- The Loop
On 31 December 2019 we closed the acquisition of The Loop in Manchester. This network added unique routes, extra capacity and flexibility that enhanced euNetworks’ existing footprint.
Directional drilling to Equinix PA3
As part of our continued development in the Paris metro, we delivered a unique connectivity solution with ‘triversity’ into Equinix PA3.
Super Highway - Dublin to Manchester, London and Lowestoft
Delivering critical infrastructure in the UK and Ireland. We have built an end to end network system with high fibre count cable covering 1000km from Dublin to Manchester, London and Lowestoft.
Vienna Metropolitan expansion
In 2019 we added Vienna to our portfolio of city networks, adding 70km of metro duct infrastructure. Today we are investing in strengthening diversity between some key data centres.
Milan Metropolitan network build
Our deep fibre networks in cities are highly valued by our customers. In 2019 we completed a metro build in Milan to add to our portfolio of city networks. Its 118 kilometres, with base ring spanning 30km and over lapping ring segments connected by 864 fibre cable.
Madrid Metropolitan network build
In 2019 we completed a metro build in Madrid to add to our portfolio of city networks. We’ve connected key data centres in this market, and strengthened our long haul nodes in a high growth metro.
Paris Metropolitan network expansion
We undertook expansion of our Paris city network in 2017. We are building out further footprint, undertaking an overbuild and connecting more data centres in the city.
North London Expansion
We continue to add to our portfolio of data centres by expanding our London metro. We believe linking of our rings: Hemel Hempstead to Welwyn Garden City back to Slough and Hayes & KAO Park to Docklands through Waltham Cross and Enfield, creates a compelling new region for DC growth.
Deploying 10G Ethernet
We deployed 10G Ethernet across our connected data centre footprint, offering scalable, flexible data centre to data centre connectivity. This delivers a scalable path beyond 1G and an alternative to protected Wavelengths. It also enables our customers to gain access to the wide data centre footprint we offer without the need for colocation and platform roll out.
