Midgard Infra owns and operates one of Norway’s largest fibre-optic networks, extending across 30,000+ kilometers and connecting more than a million homes, businesses and data centres. Our cable system serves as a new digital highway to and from the Nordics, forming a vital part of the region’s digital foundation with 18 to 48 Terabits of capacity per fibre pair and transport speeds of up to 800G.
Midgard Infra’s two wholly owned subsea cables connect Stavanger and Oslo in Norway with Newcastle in the UK through the NO-UK cable, and Larvik in Norway with Hamburg in Germany via Skagen Fibre West. The network also includes an extensive metro network in Oslo and links major hubs across Northern Europe, such as Hamburg, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Brussels, London, and Dublin. Additionally, the system ensures high-capacity connectivity to the Americas via the Havfrue (AEC-2) trans-Atlantic subsea cable.
The NO–UK Cable System is an open cable system providing a total of eight dark fibre pairs and up to 216 Tbps system capacity, connecting Stavanger in Norway and Newcastle in the United Kingdom (UK). The NO–UK cable system has achieved a record-breaking 800Gbps line rate using Ciena’s GeoMesh Extreme, powered by WaveLogic 5 Extreme coherent optical technology.
The NO–UK is part of a larger European fibre network established by Midgard Infra, connecting Norway to important digital hubs such as London, Brussels, Amsterdam and Hamburg.
We have recently extended the NO–UK backbone fibre highway from Stavanger to Oslo, allowing for access to several data centres in the Norwegian capital with reduced latency. The link currently consists of 144 fibre pairs with the option to extend to several hundred.
The Skagen Fiber West is a 170 km repeaterless submarine cable connecting Norway (Larvik) and Denmark (Hirtshals).
The Skagen Fiber cable system consists of 48 fibre pairs, provides over 1920 Tbps of system capacity and a designed round-trip delay (RTD) of approximately 1.7 ms between the Larvik cable landing stations in Norway and Hirtshals cable landing station in Denmark. On the Norwegian side, the cable meets up with Midgard Infra’s extensive national fibre network allowing for low latency connectivity to any of the major data centre locations, such as Stavanger, Rjukan and Oslo.
