A neutral infrastructure for a flexible and scalable network

Stokab owns and operates the world's largest open urban fiber network – a neutral digital infrastructure that forms the basis for communication, innovation and social functions in the Stockholm region. The network's geographical scope extends from Nynäshamn in the south to Norrtälje in the north, via the Stockholm archipelago in the east and around Lake Mälaren in the west.

The fiber network is mostly laid underground, but is also found in tunnels, along tracks and as a submarine cable. The design of the network makes it possible to quickly switch fiber connections and redirect traffic when necessary.

As a network owner, Stokab offers black fiber – without its own services and traffic in the network. The open and neutral model guarantees equal conditions for all actors, strengthens competitiveness and contributes to digital independence for companies, organizations and social actors.

Stokab has a clear role in total defense and actively participates in the work to strengthen Sweden's digital resilience. Security work is conducted in close collaboration with relevant authorities and includes exercises, emergency planning and continuous development of routines for crisis situations and increased readiness. Parts of this work are done quietly for natural reasons, but contribute to a safer and more robust digital infrastructure for society at large.

Sustainability work is integrated into Stokab's daily operations and long-term planning, with a focus on the environment, work environment, ethics and societal benefit. We strive to contribute to safe and sustainable digital development - today and for the future.
