The high bandwidth link is Colt’s second linking Dublin to London, increasing the operator’s capacity and resiliency.
The expansion is said to connect hundreds of Ireland-based companies in the financial services, media and retail sectors to over 195 European cities.
“With half of the world’s top banks in Ireland, we’re seeing an increasing demand for high bandwidth connectivity, driven by the move to cloud services and the mission critical nature of data in the digital economy,” said François Eloy, EVP, network services at Colt.
