Omaha Edge Data Center
Omaha Edge Data Center | The Midwest’s Interconnection Hub
Omaha has emerged as one of the most strategically important edge interconnection markets in the central United States. Positioned in the geographic center of the country, the city enables efficient traffic exchange between East and West Coast networks while reducing latency and long-haul transport costs.
1623 Farnam’s Omaha Edge Data Center platform is purpose-built for dense interconnection, cloud access and peering. As a network-neutral carrier hotel, we support carriers, ISPs, cloud providers, wireless operators, content platforms and enterprises deploying mission-critical infrastructure at the network edge.
Today, 1623 Farnam’s Omaha platform is anchored by its flagship interconnection facility at 1623 Farnam Street, with planned campus expansion designed to support long-term growth in AI, cloud and network interconnection demand.
