The move into MDC San Diego is a pivotal step in strengthening the ecosystem that connects the U.S. and Mexico\u2019s digital economies. Extending Uniti Wholesale\u2019s Intelligent Converged Optical Network (ICON) through MDC\u2019s Actively Neutral\u2122 platform will help customers deliver Ethernet services and 100G\u2013800G wavelengths to scale on demand. This expansion offers faster, more resilient cross-border connectivity, providing choice and openness across these critical routes. <\/p>\n

As an early tenant, Uniti Wholesale underscores its commitment to delivering high\u2011capacity connectivity across vital U.S\u2013Mexico routes while expanding customer choice at the border.<\/p>\n

MDC San Diego, Southern California\u2019s first 100% carrier\u2011neutral border\u2011crossing data center, is strategically located near the San Ysidro and Otay Mesa ports of entry. The facility enables diverse fiber\u2011crossing solutions that connect San Diego to Baja California and support substantial traffic from western Mexico and the Baja Peninsula. The incorporation of Uniti Wholesale in San Diego reinforces the value of MDC\u2019s BorderConnect Platform\u2122, which integrates carrier\u2011neutral colocation, diverse International Fiber Crossings, and a growing ecosystem of global networks.<\/p>\n

\u201cEstablishing services at MDC San Diego significantly extends the ICON Network\u2019s cross\u2011border capabilities, offering our customers expanded choice, diversity, and superior performance for U.S\u2013Mexico routes,\u201d said Joe Scattareggia, Uniti Wholesale executive vice president and chief revenue officer. \u201cThis new gateway aligns with our strategy to meet the escalating demand for high\u2011capacity transport between Southern California and Baja California and supports our broader international footprint expansion.\u201d<\/p>\n

Integrating MDC San Diego into the ICON Network gives customers diverse, resilient long\u2011haul pathways engineered to optimize performance and reach for West Coast U.S.\u2013Mexico traffic and simplify access to Mexican networks. It also continues Uniti Wholesale\u2019s ongoing international expansion, delivering high performance waves into key U.S. data centers from international access points in Wall Township (N.J.), Jacksonville, Boca Raton, and Miami (Fla.), and Virginia Beach (Va.), enabling resilient paths that link Central America to Europe.<\/p>\n

\u201cUniti\u2019s expansion into MDC San Diego strengthens the connective tissue of the U.S.\u2013Mexico digital corridor,\u201d said Juan Salazar, chief executive officer of MDC Data Centers. \u201cBy extending the ICON Network through our Actively Neutral\u2122 ecosystem, Uniti is helping create more resilient, diverse pathways for cross-border connectivity. Their presence reflects the kind of partnership that turns neutrality into progress \u2014 where each participant contributes to a stronger, more open infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Uniti Wholesale\u2019s ICON long\u2011haul core transport network delivers customer\u2011ready advantages: open line systems and multi\u2011vendor scaling for true platform choice; diverse, protected paths with automated restoration for higher availability, and accelerated delivery across key domestic and international corridors.<\/p>\n
