Altibox has a heart in the mountains – that ’ s for sure !

Norway ’ s largest data center is located 175 meters deep inside the mountain of Rennesøy in Rogaland . It is a fully monitored , secured and organized area where unbelievably large amounts of data are stored . Here , in what was formerly NATO ’ s ammunition store , Altibox has placed its server park . Safety at the facility is strict , and even the smallest movement is continuously monitored around the clock .
It is also important for Altibox to care about the environment . Therefore , we have placed our servers in green data centers powered by renewable energy . From the cool Mastra Fjord water is collected from 100 meters deep . This is pumped into the plant and maintains a constant temperature of 8 degrees .
