euNetworks Group Limited, a Western European bandwidth infrastructure company, has completed its previously announced transaction to acquire the dark fiber business of a Belgian utility company.
The integration of the pipe-based network has started. The 1,660 km of fiber optic cables, distributed on single routes in Brussels and long-haul routes throughout Belgium, represent a solid addition to euNetworks’ existing network in the region.
There are also interesting investment opportunities as euNetworks expands its customers into neighboring regions to give them an end-to-end experience. The company continues to focus on the continuous consolidation of the high-demand bandwidth region FLAP (Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam and Paris).
“With today’s closing of the transaction, we will now rapidly integrate the network and work closely with our new customers, suppliers and partners,” said Paula Cogan, Chief Executive Officer of euNetworks. “Our customers will benefit from the additional reach in Belgium and the new and unique routes in Brussels and across the country. I look forward to the opportunities ahead as we continue to expand our leadership in European infrastructure.”
As euNetworks focuses on delivering high-bandwidth fiber optic connections between and within European cities, the company continues to invest in its network by building unique routes, adding multiple different paths and expanding reach to key hyperscale data center locations, data center clusters and nodes of the network. These investments drive the company’s growth and increase the capacity needs of euNetworks’ customers.
euNetworks is a critical bandwidth infrastructure company that owns and operates 17 fiber-based metropolitan networks connected to a high-capacity intercity backbone, covering 53 cities in 17 countries across Europe.
The company is the market leader in connecting data centers and today connects over 510 directly with each other. euNetworks is also a leading provider of cloud connectivity, offering a targeted portfolio of metro and long-haul services including Dark Fibre, Wavelengths and Ethernet.
Wholesale, financial, content, media, mobile, data center and enterprise customers benefit from euNetwork‘s unique inventory of fiber and ducts tailored to their high bandwidth requirements.
