QTS Enters The Dallas-Fort Worth Data Center Market
The fast growing data center provider will now have a presence in the fourth largest U.S. market.
QTS (Quality Technology Services) has announced that it has purchased a former semiconductor plant with plans to transform the facility into a state-of-the-art data center. This acquisition aligns with QTS' development strategy to obtain and revitalize large, scalable properties in high-demand and growing data center markets to provide custom data center, colocation, and cloud solutions. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The Dallas facility sits on a 40-acre campus in the Irving/Las Colinas area. This 700,000-sq-ft facility follows QTS' continued focus on mega data centers, with the ability to double the footprint on the existing campus to over 1.4 million sq ft. The campus is powered by an on-site 140 MW dual-fed substation. In addition, the facility's diverse fiber network connections will allow QTS to provide carrier-neutral connectivity with maximum flexibility, providing customer access to the area's numerous network providers.
