Electronia (Gateway Gulf DC Manama)
Gateway Gulf provides the region's only 100% carrier-neutral Internet Exchange Point (IXP) and data center, which allows clients to benefit from "open market" pricing and low-latency connections by utilizing multiple carriers. The facility is supported by experienced on-site staff who function as the "eyes, ears, and hands" for clients to ensure smooth operations.
Facility & Core Infrastructure
The data center features a fault-tolerant Tier-IV design and is centrally located in a 14,000 sq. m neutral facility near the FLAG landing site. It is equipped with a covered loading dock, customer staging area, and comprehensive overhead cabling with separate trays for data and power. The power infrastructure includes a 2(N+1) UPS and diesel generators with redundant fuel tanks. Cooling is handled by a redundant 2N configuration with adjustable distribution and a cold/hot aisle setup, all compliant with ASHRAE TC 9.9 standards.
Security & Fire Protection
Security is comprehensive, with 24x7x365 on-site security guards, CCTV surveillance, and multi-layered access control using both biometric and smart card systems. For fire protection, the facility uses an FM200 Dry system and is VESDA approved, supplemented by integrated smoke and heat detectors with early warning alarms.
Connectivity: Carrier-Neutral & Satellite
Beyond its carrier-neutral fiber connections, Gateway Gulf offers high-speed satellite connectivity for remote, government, broadcast, or enterprise locations not served by land-line infrastructure. This VSAT service provides corporate-grade, private layer networks for enhanced security, ensuring high capacity and uninterrupted coverage over a large geographic footprint.
On-Site Support & Managed Services
A 24x7x365 Network Operations Center (NOC) is staffed by engineers who monitor the environment, power grid, and network infrastructure. Gateway Gulf provides a range of "Remote Hands" services, from simple maintenance like power cycling and cabling checks to sophisticated procedures performed by certified engineers, such as application installations and trouble ticket management. The company also assists with network migration and offers specialized managed services, including disaster recovery, cloud storage, on-demand software, and managed security.
Colocation Options
To accommodate different client needs, Gateway Gulf offers a variety of colocation solutions, including full cabinets, partial cabinets, and shared rackspace footprints.
