The infrastructure
The development of the fibre-optic network was started in 1994 in the commercial districts of inner-city Stockholm, and was thereafter extended to the major industrial areas of Stockholm.
Today there are interurban networks to all municipalities in the County of Stockholm, to Uppsala, parts of the archipelago, to some of the municipalities in the Mälar region via Mälarringen and also to Gotland.
This network comprises 5,600 kilometres of cable and in total 1,200,000 kilometres of fibre.
From this infrastructure, connections are leased to customers. The customers thereby get the exclusive right to use a line or an entire network structure, where they decide how they wish to use the fibre.
Stokab tailor-makes a solution regardless of what equipment the customer uses to activate the fibre.
Mälarringen has been completed and similarly a number of improvements to the backbone network’s central parts.
