Windstream Wholesale continues expansion into high-demand data centers

Windstream Wholesale continued its service expansion by establishing a new presence at Cyxtera’s CH3 center in Elk Grove, IL, and at Digital Realty in Richardson, TX. Windstream’s Cyxtera CH3 data center expansion augments its presence in the Chicagoland area that includes three other data centers. Digital Realty’s Richardson location provides direct connectivity to the top Dallas data centers in the Windstream network and gives Windstream low-latency connections to the other nine data centers in the market.

Windstream Wholesale will offer fully diverse 10- and 100-Gbps wavelengths to companies operating at both locations, with access to its full suite of Ethernet and Internet services.

“We continue to expand our data center portfolio in order to stay in front of our customers’ rapidly growing need for diverse, high-capacity, low-latency bandwidth,” says Joe Scattareggia, executive vice president of Windstream Wholesale. “By establishing a presence at both the Digital Realty data center in Richardson and the Cyxtera data center location in Elk Grove, Windstream Wholesale is enhancing our capabilities at high-concentration sites and building out to the edge of the network where customers are demanding easy access to low-latency solutions.”
