H5 Data Centers, a leading national wholesale data center owner and
operator, announced today the planned extension of the IX-Denver peering
exchange to its Denver data center campus. IX-Denver is a non-profit,
neutral Internet exchange that provides access to more than 40
Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs). A member-driven and community-oriented
exchange, the IX-Denver platform enables networks to simplify network
management, increase route access, and reduce the costs of cross
connections and IP transit.
H5 Data Centers owns a 300,000 square-foot data center campus in the
Denver Tech Center where it has recently invested more than $25 million
on upgrades and expansions. The extension of IX-Denver significantly
increases the number of potential networks that can access the exchange.
“Denver is a rapidly-growing interconnection market,” said Josh Simms,
CEO of H5 Data Centers. “The partnership with IX-Denver will enable more
networks in Colorado to access a rich peering platform at port speeds of
up to 100 Gbps from our two independent Tier III data centers. We look
forward to supporting the broader IX community.”
Denver Data Center Highlights:
- 300,000 square-foot data center campus
- Two (2) independent, concurrently-maintainable data centers
- Over fifteen (15) years of continuous uptime
- 24×7 on-site engineering and security teams
