e& Carrier & Wholesale, which is part of the wider e& technology group, has announced the launch of a new data center on its Fujairah SmartHub Campus. This 1.5 MW data center will be its fourth Tier III facility, and will take the entire campus’ total capacity to 4 MW.

Established in 2011, the SmartHub campus in Fujairah has become a carrier-neutral digital ecosystem, serving multiple Tier 1 carriers, hyperscalers, content delivery networks (CDNs), Over-The-Top (OTT) platforms, and Internet Service Providers (ISPs).

Nabil Baccouche, Group Chief Carrier & Wholesale Officer, e&, said, “The expansion of the Fujairah campus adds critical capacity and strengthens connectivity, providing businesses with the flexibility to scale, adapt, and operate securely. This is about offering reliable, cost-effective solutions that enable organisations to grow and stay competitive in a landscape that demands agility and innovation.”

As the SmartHub Campus is connected to the Fujairah Cable Landing Station (CLS), interconnecting the Middle East, Europe, the United States, Asia and Africa, this data center aims to benefit from low latency and maximise cost efficiency achieved through minimal or zero backhauling fees. This also enables these data centres to host mission-critical digital infrastructure. Additionally, this expansion will serve the two upcoming cable systems this year.

The SmartHub ecosystem offers a comprehensive range of solutions. In addition to co-location and hosting services, it provides international connectivity, cross-connect solutions, IP transit, and access to a wide variety of wholesale services.

Founded in Abu Dhabi over 48 years ago, e& has evolved from a telecom pioneer into a technology group. Its footprint now spans 38 countries, offering a variety of digital services ranging from advanced connectivity, entertainment, streaming and financial services to AI-powered solutions, cloud computing, ICT, cybersecurity and IoT platforms.
