The Strategic Importance of Omaha

When it comes to choosing the ideal data center location, Omaha’s central position in the U.S. makes it a standout choice. Located at the crossroads of major east-west and north-south fiber routes, Omaha enables rapid data transmission to key metropolitan hubs like Chicago, Dallas, Denver, and beyond. This proximity ensures reduced latency and faster data transfer, a critical advantage for applications such as 5G edge computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and content delivery.

Beyond geography, Omaha offers additional advantages:

  • Low risk for natural disasters such as earthquakes and hurricanes.

  • Affordable power costs compared to coastal markets.

  • A strong, tech-savvy workforce trained to support data center operations.

These attributes make our Nebraska data center a secure, reliable, and cost-effective choice for businesses looking to grow their footprint in the central United States.

By colocating in our facility, businesses gain direct access to over 50 carriers, cloud providers, and content delivery networks, significantly reducing transit costs and enhancing performance.

The Omaha IX provides a critical platform for businesses looking to:

  • Peer with major networks for faster, more reliable data exchange.

Why Location Matters in the Age of 5G and the Cloud

The rise of technologies like 5G edge computing and cloud hosting has amplified the need for strategically located data centers in the U.S. Businesses no longer rely solely on coastal hubs; instead, they require edge data center solutions closer to their users and operations. This decentralization is reshaping the landscape of US data center locations, making places like Omaha pivotal in the broader network. 

1623 Farnam supports this shift with:

  • Direct cloud on-ramps to leading providers like AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, ensuring optimal performance for hybrid cloud strategies.
