Bahnhof AB

Bahnhof AB is a Swedish‐based infrastructure and IT services provider and one of the country’s pioneering ISPs, founded in 1994. The company has evolved into a full‐scale data-centre operator, owning and operating multiple data centres in central Swedish cities—Stockholm and Malmö—positioned for low latency and strong connectivity. 

What distinguishes Bahnhof is its focus on secure, centrally located, high-performance facilities, many in unique or heritage sites (for example its famed “Pionen” underground bunker).The company maintains full control over its data centres and underlying network infrastructure, enabling them to offer transparent, carrier‐neutral services with strong protections for data privacy (all data hosted on Swedish soil) and connectivity performance. 

⚙️ Facility Highlights

• All data centres are located in Swedish city centres for low latency and good transport links.
• Redundant infrastructure: dual cooling systems, backup generators with >24h capacity, own sub‐station power. 
• High fiber density and own network backbone: the company runs its own Nordic fibre network, enabling direct connections to cloud providers.
• Security infrastructure: three physical perimeter layers, gas-based fire suppression, high security class.
