DUBLIN, Oct. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EllaLink, the first high-capacity submarine cable to directly connect Latin America with Europe, announces the expansion of its network to the Start Campus SINES DC, in Portugal. This strategic move strengthens EllaLink’s presence within the Sines Atlantic Hub, reinforcing the partnership with the largest Data Centre being rolled out in Europe.
EllaLink’s new fibre route to Start Campus – through the 1.2 GW capacity SINES DC – offers customers reaching the Iberian Peninsula enhanced connectivity, reduced latency, and access to a global network. Start Campus, through the SINES DC project, is enabling a sustainable and interconnected digital ecosystem. This green hub empowers robust interconnection capabilities, benefiting both the tech industry and the local economy.
