Mexico’s digital infrastructure conversation is conducted in megawatts. Capacity operating, capacity under construction, capacity announced. It is a reasonable way to track investment. It says nothing about whether traffic can be exchanged efficiently once that…
When a submarine cable reaches a new market, the coverage follows a predictable shape. Route, design capacity, landing cities, ready for service date. Underneath it sits an assumption that rarely gets examined: that arrival equals…
Ownership is changing hands, regulation is being rebuilt, and the real competitive battle is shifting from who has the most connections to who can deliver capacity, quality, and interconnection at scale. Mexico’s telecommunications sector is…
Gamers in northern Mexico often see about 40 milliseconds of latency to Dallas game servers, well above the 10 to 15 milliseconds that fiber optics physically allow. The gap comes from legacy routing that sends…
MDC Data Centers has activated its tenth International Fiber Crossing (IFC), a new carrier-neutral route linking Brownsville, Texas, to Matamoros, Tamaulipas. The addition extends the BorderConnect Platform™ to the Gulf Coast, giving carriers a redundant…
The 2026 World Cup proves what Brazil, Europe, and Japan already learned: live streaming demands local interconnection. MEX-IX applies that lesson at the US-Mexico border.
GTT Communications consolidates its McAllen border network operations into MDC's MCA2 facility, completing its migration from the legacy Chase Building site and strengthening interconnection density across the U.S. Mexico corridor.
The data center backlash treats every facility as the same thing. It isn't. A look at why interconnection hubs, measured in connections rather than acres, don't belong in the same conversation as hyperscale AI campuses.
At ITW 2026, MDC Data Centers CEO Juan Salazar sat down with datacenterHawk to discuss cross-border interconnection, Latin America's infrastructure gap, and MDC's expansion into submarine cable infrastructure with the Manta consortium — landing in…
The bottleneck for AI inference isn't the model or the hardware. It's whether the facilities built to run it are actually ready. A look at why edge infrastructure is becoming the strategic chokepoint of the…
