San Diego – Uniti Wholesale is expanding its operations on the West Coast with a new data center located at MDC San Diego, situated at 7014 Manya Circle. This strategic move is aimed at enhancing the connectivity between the digital economies of the United States and Mexico, thus supporting the growing demand for high-capacity transport services across the border.
The new data center, which is the first entirely carrier-neutral border-crossing data center in Southern California, is positioned conveniently near the San Ysidro and Otay Mesa ports of entry. As an early tenant at MDC San Diego, Uniti Wholesale is set to utilize its Intelligent Converged Optical Network (ICON) technology integrated with MDC’s Actively Neutral™ platform. This combination will facilitate customers in delivering Ethernet services and provide on-demand 100G–800G wavelengths for better and faster cross-border connectivity.
The expansion signifies a crucial step forward in meeting customer requirements by allowing for more diverse and resilient cross-border connections. By enhancing choice and openness across vital U.S.-Mexico routes, Uniti Wholesale aims to assist its customers in navigating the burgeoning digital landscape. The new facility is strategically designed to support extensive traffic flows from western Mexico and the Baja Peninsula, bolstering fiber-crossing solutions that link San Diego with Baja California.
With the integration of Uniti Wholesale into MDC’s BorderConnect Platform™, the new data center will enhance the interconnection of carrier-neutral colocation, International Fiber Crossings, and build a growing ecosystem of global networks. By streamlining operations, Uniti Wholesale is poised to significantly expand the cross-border capabilities of its ICON Network, allowing for improved services for its clientele.
According to company sources, this strategic expansion aligns with Uniti Wholesale’s broader goals for international growth, particularly focusing on the increasing demand for high-capacity transport services between Southern California and Baja California. The new gateway is anticipated to provide diverse, resilient long-haul pathways that are optimized specifically for traffic moving between the West Coast and Mexico.
Furthermore, services at MDC San Diego are now available to qualifying customers, offering tailored design options, diversity validations, and the ability to acquire service quotes that meet various cross-border requirements. This immediate availability reinforces Uniti Wholesale’s commitment to enhancing connectivity solutions for its customers while continuing its strategy of international expansion.
As Uniti Wholesale continues to deliver high-performance capabilities to critical U.S. data centers across locations including New Jersey, Florida, and Virginia, the establishment of the new data center marks a pivotal development in reinforcing cross-border connectivity and addressing the increasing demands of the digital economy.
