The PoP is located at Global Connect’s facility in Wendenstrasse, Hamburg, and Mike Leber, president of Hurricane Electric said that it was exciting for the company to be expanding into the “booming German telecommunications market”.
“Because Germany is Europe’s largest IT market, establishing this new PoP in Hamburg was an easy decision,” Leber said.
“This new connection allows Hurricane Electric to solidify its position as a leader in high-quality transit.”
US-based Hurricane Electric has a strong European presence with PoPs in Romania, Ireland, Copenhagen and Hungary among others, and earlier this month, launched a second PoP in Singapore.
