The flagship sits in the Tay valley with graded routes out in every direction: the
Dundee metro ~24 km east (CityFibre/Openreach rings + a DC on the owner map), the
Perth metro POP ~28 km south-west where the long-haul corridor turns for Edinburgh, the
Edinburgh IXScotland / South Gyle cluster ~77 km south with Glasgow behind it, the
Aberdeen Tampnet North landing ~91 km north-east carrying named reach to Norway, the
Newcastle landing campus south (NO-UK + Havhingsten — outside the default frame), the
SHEFA-2 North Atlantic system via Banff, and the star option: grid-route fibre (OPGW)
on the Alyth 400/132 kV corridor the campus's own 900 MW tie connects to. Every feature below is
graded to the evidence base; subsea landings and cable routes are TeleGeography's published geometry, everything else is indicative. The map now draws the onward routes beyond the far
landings — Oslo (Azure Norway East), Amsterdam (AMS-IX), Frankfurt (DE-CIX) and US East via
the Bude gateway — and flags the Nordic AI corridor (Nscale Narvik / Microsoft).

Alyth carries the largest IT load in the portfolio — 405 MW — on the same transmission corridor as the Coupar Angus cluster, so one connectivity position serves the flagship and its neighbours. Distances are computed (haversine, great-circle) from the campus datum to the evidence coordinates — subsea landing coordinates are TeleGeography's published points, all other coordinates are approximate/indicative, so read these as positioning figures, not route lengths.
Named-System Reach
The reach story rests on named, dated systems — not on adjacency hand-waving. Two independent Nordic directions (Aberdeen north, Newcastle south), a hyperscaler-owned continental system into Denmark, a North Atlantic branch via SHEFA-2, London over the east-coast terrestrial backbone, and transatlantic reach from the Bude gateway — plus grid-route fibre on the campus's own transmission corridor.
