Quantum networks enable a broad range of practical and fundamental applications. Experimental realization of such networks is hampered by many challenges, one of them being a lack of an efficient interface between stationary and flying qubits working at room temperature. We demonstrate an interface between ensembles of the nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond and photons with wavelengths near 1550 nm. Photons are coupled to spins via local dynamical stress produced by optomechanical driving of a diamond microdisk. Our approach does not involve intrinsic optical transitions and can be easily adapted to many other colour centers.
