Data centre and telecommunications provider Vocus has laid two new fibre links across Sydney Harbour in a bid to decrease connection latency between the city's financial district and the recently opened ASX data centre in Gore Hill, (pictured) north of the bridge.

A total of 1.6 kilometres of armoured fibre was laid from Dawes Point in Sydney’s CBD to Milsons Point, and from Dawes Point to Blues Point. Vocus chief executive officer James Spenceley said the links were 400 metres shorter than existing links between the CBD and the ASX's Australian Liquidity Centre, thus transmitting data microseconds faster.
