DFW1 occupies the former Federal Reserve Bank building at 400 South Akard Street, which is both DataBank's corporate headquarters and the largest floor the company operates in any downtown location anywhere — 145,250 square feet of IT space on 7 megawatts of critical load, a 2N power design, 25 kW+ liquid-cooled cabinets and 42 carriers on net, running on a 100% renewable energy source. Downtown buildings are normally small interconnection suites; this one is a full data center inside the Dallas central business district, which is why it can hold a production footprint and the cross-connects at a single address. DWDM links run from here to DataBank's suite inside the Infomart, putting both North Texas carrier hotels behind one contract.
