Frequently Asked Questions
1623 Farnam has been delivering carrier-neutral interconnection and mission-critical data center services for more than 20 years. Over that time, the company has become the leading network edge interconnection hub in the Midwest.
1623 Farnam is an interconnection-first carrier hotel. Our primary focus is enabling dense network ecosystems where carriers, cloud providers, wireless operators, ISPs, enterprises and content platforms can exchange traffic efficiently, securely and with low latency.
While many data centers prioritize space and power, 1623 Farnam prioritizes network density and peering. Our value lies in ecosystem strength—carrier diversity, cloud access, and direct interconnection opportunities that improve performance and reduce transit costs.
Strategically located in Omaha, 1623 Farnam serves as a meet-in-the-middle hub between East and West Coast networks. With more than 50 network providers and a thriving peering environment, we provide one of the most densely connected interconnection ecosystems in the central United States.
Omaha’s central geography makes it ideal for latency-sensitive traffic exchange and distributed computing strategies. As network architectures shift toward edge and regional deployments, Omaha has emerged as a critical aggregation and peering market.
The expansion reflects sustained growth in demand for interconnection, cloud connectivity, broadband backhaul and AI-driven workloads. The second Omaha facility reinforces our long-term commitment to the Midwest and supports future ecosystem expansion.
The second facility is planned to deliver at least 5MW of capacity and is targeted to be operational in mid-2028. It is designed to extend network density, carrier diversity and ecosystem value across a multi-facility Omaha platform.
Customers gain additional scalability, deployment flexibility and the ability to design multi-site, resilient infrastructure strategies within a unified Midwest interconnection ecosystem.
Our vision is to continue building the Midwest’s most connected interconnection ecosystem while supporting distributed computing, AI workloads, broadband growth and cloud expansion through a scalable, multi-facility strategy.
We measure success through ecosystem growth, network density, customer satisfaction and our ability to deliver secure, high-performance connectivity for mission-critical infrastructure.
