Zayo Group Acquires Dallas-Based Data Center Provider CoreXchange
The move increases zColo’s data center footprint in Dallas to more than 34,000 sq ft across two facilities.
zColo, the colocation division of international Bandwidth Infrastructure provider Zayo Group, LLC has announced it has acquired CoreXchange, Inc., a data center, bandwidth, and managed services provider in Dallas. The purchase adds one new data center, located at 8600 Harry Hines Blvd., to the zColo portfolio. In addition, zColo will secure an additional 12,000 square feet in CoreXchange’s suite at its existing data center in the Dallas Infomart at 1950 N. Stemmons Freeway.
The acquisition yields over 18,000 sq ft of total data center space and brings zColo’s national data center count to 27 locations. As a part of the acquisition, Zayo will also assume ownership of ColoUnlimited, CoreXchange’s online presence that facilitates simple, real-time online sales and ordering of colocation services. zColo will continue operating ColoUnlimited in the Dallas market before integrating into Zayo’s recently announced Internet Portal, Tranzact, in the second quarter of 2014. Tranzact will enable transactional ordering capabilities across zColo’s national data center footprint.
