Press Release
Telehouse Thailand, a renowned global provider of data center colocation services, has partnered with National Telecom Public Company Limited (NT) to deliver high-capacity international data transmission via submarine cable systems. This initiative serves to significantly enhance the country’s telecommunications backbone and support digital transformation across the public and private sectors.
The partnership sees NT’s international submarine cable network linking directly to the now fully operational Telehouse Bangkok facility, enabling Telehouse Thailand to offer domestic content providers and ISPs from neighboring countries seamless access to the Asia Direct Cable (ADC) and Asia America Gateway (AAG) systems.
The ADC network provides connectivity between China, Hong Kong, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, many of which host data centers for major cloud and content providers, while the AAG network extends connectivity from Asia to the United States, linking together major global economies from around the world.
NT’s domestic submarine cable system provides alternative routing via Thailand’s Gulf coast to NT’s international cable landing stations in Songkhla and Satun, ensuring reliable global reach across multiple regions.
Alongside benefits to private and public organizations, the partnership will serve to advance the Thai government’s vision of establishing the country as an ASEAN Digital Hub, enabling digital transformation of the Southeast Asian region and encouraging global investment.
Colonel Sanpachai Huvanandana, President, National Telecom Public Company Limited commented: “This collaboration expands Thailand’s business potential and telecommunications readiness in the AI era. With terabit-scale capacity and high-reliability network design, our international connectivity infrastructure addresses the critical requirements of global cloud and content providers when considering investment in Thai data center facilities.”
Ken Miyashita, Managing Director of Telehouse Thailand, added: “Leveraging NT’s submarine cable network, a core element of Thailand’s telecommunications infrastructure, enables our customers to efficiently handle the huge volumes of data traffic from Gen AI and cloud services, which are expected to significantly grow. As Bangkok’s leading carrier-neutral interconnection data center, Telehouse further strengthens this submarine connectivity and high service availability with the four diverse incoming fiber routes.
