CoreSite Santa Clara (SV2)
1656 McCarthy Blvd., Milpitas, CA, 95035, US
SV2 is CoreSite's Milpitas building at 1656 McCarthy Blvd - the only site in the Silicon Valley set outside San Jose or Santa Clara proper, and at 76,000-plus square feet the smallest one CoreSite still markets here. Utility power arrives at 12kV to cut distribution losses, feeding 2N UPS, N+1 generators with 24 hours of fuel on site, and N+1 mechanical plant running variable-speed CRAHs and pumps. Its interconnection footprint is deliberately light by comparison: seven on-net networks, two exchanges and a single named carrier, with AWS the one directly named cloud on-ramp. CoreSite sells full cabinets, private cages and suites and explicitly offers no partial-cabinet product at this address. Read it as dark-fiber-reachable growth capacity behind SV1 rather than an interconnection hub in its own right.
