icolo.io's carrier-neutral colocation facility in Mombasa, directly adjacent to Kenya's submarine cable landing stations on the Indian Ocean coast.
icolo.io Mombasa Data Centre MOM1 is operated by icolo.io, a Kenyan carrier-neutral data centre company focused on building and operating pan-African carrier-neutral data centres. The Mombasa facility is strategically located adjacent to Kenya's major submarine cable landing stations on the Indian Ocean coast, providing a unique combination of data centre colocation and direct submarine cable access.
Mombasa hosts landing points for several major submarine cables including SEACOM, EASSy, TEAMS, DARE-1, and PEACE, making it one of East Africa's most important connectivity hubs. By co-locating directly next to these cable landing stations, icolo.io MOM1 enables customers — including cable operators, cloud providers, and content networks — to exchange traffic between cable systems and access the full range of East African international connectivity with minimal latency.
The Mombasa data centre is part of icolo.io's strategy to build carrier-neutral data centres at key African cable landing points and internet exchange cities, creating an interconnected network that enables efficient traffic exchange across the continent. The facility serves international content providers, telecommunications operators, and enterprises requiring direct access to East Africa's growing submarine cable ecosystem.
