BIT DIGITAL: Enovum MTL1 / Montreal 1

Enovum MTL1 / Montreal 1 is WhiteFiber’s Montreal data center serving AI, HPC, enterprise colocation, cloud, GPU, VFX, and hybrid infrastructure workloads in Quebec’s largest metro market. The facility sits at 3195 Suite D, Chemin Bedford in Montreal and functions as the flagship Enovum site within WhiteFiber’s data center platform. MTL-1 supports dense colocation environments, turnkey private AI deployments, and production GPU infrastructure, giving customers access to physical cabinets, cloud-adjacent services, and technical operations in the same metropolitan facility. The site is positioned for workloads that require proximity to Montreal’s cloud, artificial intelligence, visual effects, research, and enterprise ecosystems.

The facility includes 78,500 square feet of built space and public facility references identify 70,000 square feet of data center infrastructure. MTL-1 uses hydroelectric power from Hydro-Québec, raised-floor data halls, hot/cold aisle configuration, N+1 cooling, advanced environmental monitoring, VESDA detection, and double-interlocking pre-action sprinklers. Electrical resiliency is designed around 2N UPS, 2N generators, A and B power distribution paths, and diesel generator redundancy. The facility also supports high-density server racks for AI and HPC infrastructure, including GPU-oriented environments using NVIDIA H100 and H200 systems.

MTL-1 benefits from Montreal’s dense fiber environment, renewable hydroelectric grid, and cool climate profile. The facility provides carrier-neutral connectivity, access to major local carriers, redundant dark fiber paths, connectivity to Montreal’s largest carrier hotel, and connectivity to CanIX. The site was launched in 2021 and later became part of Bit Digital’s vertically integrated AI/HPC infrastructure platform through Enovum, with WhiteFiber now presenting MTL-1 as part of its data center and cloud infrastructure portfolio. Montreal, Quebec, Hydro-Québec, CanIX, Enovum, WhiteFiber, Bit Digital, and Chemin Bedford all anchor the facility’s local and network identity.
