Equinix Opens Fifth Data Center in Dallas

Equinix opened its fifth International Business Exchange (IBX) in Dallas.

Equinix invested over $34 million in the first phase of the DA6 data center which includes space, power, and cooling for 450 cabinets. Future expansion phases of DA6 will accommodate 900 additional cabinets for a total of over 82,000 square feet of usable colocation space. With the addition of DA6 at full build, Equinix's total Dallas footprint will exceed 230,000 square feet dispersed over five data centers.

Four of Equinix's five Dallas data centers are located within the Dallas Infomart, a 1.6 million-square-foot building with multiple diverse fiber entry points into the building. Equinix is the largest colocation tenant in the Infomart.
