Arteria Networks and Optage Partner for OC1 Data Center

Arteria Networks, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, has officially decided to connect its advanced fiber optic cables to the new "Optage Sonezaki Data Center (OC1)" scheduled for construction by Optage in January 2026. This significant partnership marks a step towards enhancing connectivity in the Kansai region and meeting the growing demand for high-quality networking services.

Boosting Connectivity in Kansai

OC1 will be strategically located within a three-kilometer radius of prominent public cloud access points in the bustling Shinsaibashi and Dojima areas. Its location as a "connectivity data center" is anticipated to provide exceptional access to various cloud services, communication services, and Internet Exchange (IX), turning it into a vital hub for both domestic and international networks. With the incorporation of Arteria’s fiber optic technology, customers will gain tailored solutions that address their specific connectivity needs, enabling redundancy through diverse routing options that enhance reliability and availability.

Additionally, Arteria is well-equipped to offer large capacity communication solutions leveraging its extensive fiber optic network. High-speed, dedicated line services called "DynaEther" can support capacities of up to 400Gbps, ensuring low latency and high-quality connections from Osaka to major cities like Tokyo and Fukuoka, as well as connectivity to international submarine cables.

Cutting-Edge Technology and Expertise

Arteria has a robust infrastructure for broadband communications, utilizing sophisticated transmission equipment and possessing extensive knowledge in optical cable design and installation techniques. This operational know-how underpins Arteria’s ability to deliver its dedicated line service at maximum speeds of 400Gbps, ensuring efficiency and quality improvements.

The company maintains a unique fiber optic route that directly connects major cities, minimizing intermediary relay points. This design not only allows for streamlined transmission but also significantly reduces risks associated with packet loss and transmission delays, resulting in a consistently stable and high-quality communication environment for customers.

The Growing Demand for Data Centers in Kansai

The Kansai region is rapidly emerging as a strategic location for data center diversification due to power supply stability and ample land availability, particularly in Osaka Prefecture. The area is gaining attention from both domestic and international IT firms and cloud service providers as it boasts excellent transport connections and a strong existing IT infrastructure. As demand for high-quality networks necessary for large scale data centers continues to rise, Arteria is committed to driving the growth of network infrastructure in the Kansai area.

Launch Timeline

This fiber optic connection service is set to commence in January 2026 and is expected to transform the connectivity landscape in the region.
