| Site | Opened |
|---|---|
| DFT CH1 | 2008 |
| DFT CH2 | 2015 |
| DFT CH3 | Q1 2018 |
The facility is constructed in two phases of 18.2 MW of Critical Load each; Phase I was delivered in August 2008, with Phase 2 delivered in February 2011. Clients are able to lease one or multiple dedicated computer rooms each with independent redundancy and security.
Digital Realty is a Datacenter wholesale provider and will not sell in cabinets or cages. The following resellers have set up their own colocation to provide managed services and small colo configurations.
The DRT Dark Fiber Network connects CH1, CH2, and CH3 datacenters so that one can access service from any carrier on the Chicago campus. Dupont Fabros does not charge a MRC (Monthly Recurring Charge) for Cross Connects.
