New York colocation questions

What does colocation cost in New York?

Published wholesale asking rents in New York run $190 to $235 per kW per month for 250 kW and larger requirements (CBRE, North America Data Center Trends H1 2026 (Figures 1 and 2: H1 2026 Wholesale Primary and Secondary Market Fundamentals), H1 2026). Smaller cabinet deals usually price higher per kW, and power is often metered on top. Retail full racks generally run $900 to $2,000 per month (Inflect, 2026-04-01).

Where are the carrier hotels in New York?

The main interconnection buildings are 60 Hudson Street (60 Hudson St, New York, NY 10013), 111 8th Avenue (111 8th Ave, New York, NY 10011), 165 Halsey Street (165 Halsey St, Newark, NJ 07102), Equinix Secaucus campus (800 Secaucus Road, Secaucus, NJ). Buildings with more networks on site mean shorter, cheaper cross-connects to the carriers and clouds you need.

What does power cost in New York?

The industrial electricity average is 10.81 cents/kWh (NY industrial) and 15.63 cents/kWh (NJ industrial). Facilities that bill power separately pass this through with their PUE on top, so ask each bidder for its billed PUE and power rate.

How do blind counter-quotes work?

Providers bid blind: they see the technical spec only, never your name, email, phone or company, and never a file you upload. We introduce you only to the provider you pick. We ask at least three facilities to price your power, space and interconnection spec, put every quote on one 36-month landed cost, and reply within one business day.
