Operations

London

Operational since 1990, Telehouse North became Europe’s first purpose-built neutral colocation facility.[1] It is the main hub of the Internet in the United Kingdom. In response to growing demand for a Central London location, Telehouse opened an additional colocation facility in 1997, Telehouse Metro, in the City of London.

A second building at the Docklands site, Telehouse East, was opened in 1999 and the construction of a third building, Telehouse West, at its Docklands site was completed in March 2010. In July 2014 KDDI announced that a fourth building North Two[2] would be build on the site, adjacent to the existing Telehouse North building.

Telehouse London is the primary home of the London Internet Exchange since 1994, due to the number carriers present in the data centre and the level of latency, Telehouse is one of the key internet hubs in the world.

LINX, Packet Exchange, LONAP and LIPEX are present at Telehouse Docklands.

In 2012, Telehouse built their own primary substation, at 50MVA and two 132kVA power lines directly connected to the high voltage power network for the London Docklands site.
