Stavanger, Norway – February 26, 2026 – Altibox Carrier and DataVita have announced a strategic partnership to provide high-performance connectivity between Scotland and the Nordics. Services are available immediately.
By integrating the NO-UK subsea cable system directly into DataVita’s data centers, located within Scotland’s first AI growth zone, the collaboration creates a seamless digital corridor for hyperscalers and neo-cloud providers.
This direct route bypasses traditional southern UK congestion, offering:
- Superior Performance: Scalable 100G and 400G services with low latency.
- Sustainability: Leveraging the renewable energy profiles of both Norway and Scotland.
- Resilience: A diverse, high-capacity path that strengthens regional infrastructure.
“This partnership with DataVita strengthens the digital bridge between Scotland and the Nordics,” said Luke Fox, Chief Commercial Officer of Altibox Carrier. “By extending NO-UK connectivity directly into DataVita’s data centers, we are enabling customers to deploy high-performance infrastructure with reduced latency, unrivaled resilience, and scalability across two strategically important regions.”
DataVita’s carrier-neutral facilities now serve as a primary gateway for Nordic-bound traffic. Danny Quinn, Managing Director of DataVita, added: “Scotland is a natural hub between North America and Europe. Partnering with Altibox Carrier enhances our reach and provides the infrastructure modern digital workloads demand.”
The partnership reflects both companies’ shared commitment to sustainability and infrastructure innovation. Norway’s renewable energy profile and Scotland’s growing renewable capacity create a compelling platform for sustainable data center and network services across the North Sea corridor.
These services are live for provisioning today, with tailored capacity and wavelength options to support hyperscale, AI, cloud, and enterprise deployments.
