Stokab: KN6 Data Center

Located in the Hammarby area of Stockholm, the KN6 data centre is operated by AB Stokab, the publicly-owned fibre infrastructure company for the city of Stockholm. The facility leverages its strategic position within Stockholm’s densest fibre-network environment, benefiting from the city’s vast dark-fibre network and connectivity ecosystem. Its location supports multi-carrier, low-latency access across the Nordic region and to Europe, with full collaboration in Stockholm’s data-centre growth programme under the Stockholm Data Parks initiative. 

⚙️ Facility Highlights

• The facility is backed by Stokab’s dark-fibre infrastructure and metropolitan network built for data-centre and colocation environments, enabling robust connectivity and expansion opportunities.
• Dual fully-diverse fibre routes into the data centre are available, ensuring physical and path redundancy. 
• The building supports 24×7 operations, and the network and facility are constructed with underground ducts and sub-conduit fibre design to maximise resilience. 
• While specific power-density and MW ratings for the KN6 facility are not publicly detailed, the site is positioned as part of Stockholm’s high-quality data-centre ecosystem with modular colocation capacity. 

🔐 Security & Compliance

• The underlying network is monitored around the clock (24 hours/day) by Stokab, with fault-resolution capabilities and high operational reliability. 
• Physical access is controlled and secured, given that Stokab emphasises network security across its fibre nodes and data-centre connections. 
• The site benefits from Stokab’s role as an open fibre-network provider for Stockholm, which includes adherence to neutral-infrastructure standards and transparent access to telecom operators and data centres. 

🌐 Connectivity & Carrier Access

• KN6 is part of the Stokab ecosystem which offers one of the largest open-dark-fibre metropolitan networks in Stockholm, meaning customers have access to a wide range of carriers, fibre routes and interconnect options. 
• The data centre benefits from the Stokab network’s cross‐connected metro infrastructure, reaching multi‐dwelling buildings, commercial properties and street-level access points — supporting edge and hybrid deployment models.
• Fully redundant connectivity paths (two or more independent fibre routes) are standard for data-centre customers in the Stokab network to ensure high availability. 

💼 Who It Serves

• Enterprises and cloud providers seeking a Stockholm-based colocation facility with strong fibre infrastructure, connectivity density and Nordic market access.
• Network operators, carriers and telecom firms requiring dark-fibre enabled sites with carrier‐neutral positioning and access to the broader Stokab fibre network.
• Organisations that require a data-centre location in the Stockholm metro area with reliable connectivity, redundancy and integration with the city’s digital infrastructure network.
• Edge-computing, IoT and hybrid‐cloud customers looking to deploy infrastructure close to major Scandinavian network hubs with flexible connectivity options.
