EonFibre, a specialist bandwidth infrastructure provider, today announced a new partnership with Datacentre220, the operator of NZ’s most connected data centre.
With AI and cloud computing adoption driving significant increases in traffic between data centres, EonFibre and Datacentre220’s combined expertise directly addresses this surging demand, providing connectivity across Aotearoa.
Richard Mooney, CEO EonFibre says: “Partnering with Datacentre220 ensures customers can directly access scalable, high-capacity fibre routes through our newly launched DC Direct solution, connecting them to New Zealand’s critical data hubs and international gateways.
“Rather than sharing bandwidth with consumer traffic, DC Direct has extensive reach covering over 30 major data centres and LFC exchanges across the country on high-capacity fibre routes, delivering future-proof scalability, and uninterrupted performance. Our proactive capacity management keeps businesses ahead of the curve as AI adoption continues to accelerate.”
EonFibre previously announced its backbone upgrade, enabling 1.6 Tb/s per wavelength and delivering a resilient platform for next-generation applications. This investment complements Datacentre220’s position as the most connected data centre in New Zealand, with a 100% uptime track record, powered by sustainable energy.
Ross Delaney, CEO, Datacentre220 says the partnership provides customer choice: “We’ve built Datacentre220 to be a connectivity ecosystem designed for resilience, choice, and performance.
“Customers expect the freedom to connect the way they need to, and by integrating EonFibre’s DC Direct into our facility, we’re providing our customers even more freedom with connectivity that supports digital transformation, cloud adoption, and the future of work in New Zealand.”
Through this partnership, the DC Direct offer provides a pathway for enterprises, service providers, and hyperscalers across Aotearoa to access new interconnect options helping to unlock growth in key sectors such as finance, healthcare, energy, telecommunications, and digital services.
