An Extension of MEGA-i to be the Next Connectivity Hub

MEGA Gateway is positioned as the next connectivity hub extended from MEGA-i through a dedicated dark fibre network. This enables MEGA Gateway customers to interconnect with major cloud gateways and hundreds of global and local IT service providers in MEGA-i through SUNeVision's inter-data centre MEGA Connect. With diversified telecom lead-ins, MEGA Gateway features carrier and cloud-neutral interconnections with high-speed access, providing customers with extra resiliency and redundancy in today's highly dynamic business environment.

Future-proof Design for High Power-density Customers

MEGA Gateway is an en-bloc data centre purpose-built for customisation and flexibility, providing unrivalled power density, connectivity and strategic importance for hyperscalers. Certified for LEED Gold Building Design and Construction, MEGA Gateway features 200,000 square feet GFA and 20MW power capacity with on-premise and dedicated-use 132kV substation, ensuring adequate and timely power supply. The modular design with optimal floor height and high floor loading are all perfectly designed to meet today and future needs of cloud services, telco carriers, ISP and high power-density customers.

Strategic Location in Tsuen Wan as Critical Pathway to Mainland China and the World

Hong Kong, taking advantage of its geographical location at the heart of Asia, well-established telecom infrastructure and business-friendly environment, remains a prime location for data centre development with enduring attraction among Asia-Pacific and global regions. Strategically located in Tsuen Wan, the central hub in Kowloon and New Territories of Hong Kong, MEGA Gateway is in mid-way along different cross-border fibre paths from mainland China to data centres at MEGA Campus. MEGA Gateway is well positioned as a strategic springboard connecting customers to mainland China from the rest of the world, vice versa.
