DataBank DFW5 – Dallas Infomart
1950 Stemmons Fwy, Dallas, TX, 75207, US
DFW5 is a suite at 1950 North Stemmons Freeway — the Dallas Infomart, the carrier hotel for the whole of North Texas and one of the most interconnected buildings in the American interior. Forty-three carriers are reachable on net, the second highest count in DataBank's portfolio behind only 60 Hudson Street in Manhattan. The suite itself is deliberately modest at 17,320 square feet and 1.3 megawatts on a 2N power design, because what is bought here is the cross-connect rather than the floor. DWDM links run from the suite to DataBank's downtown building at 400 South Akard, putting both North Texas carrier hotels behind a single contract. A Texas network puts its edge and its peering in the Infomart and its compute at Empire Central, Richardson or Plano.
