DX-1

From taxes to utility rates, higher cost is a key challenge facing enterprise and hyper-scale data center deployments. DX-1 offers substantial rent, tax and power bill costs over the major data center markets.

Located just 12 miles from downtown Chicago, DX-1 is located in Hammond, Indiana, which enjoys no property tax, sales tax, "cloud" tax or other taxes in the rent, utility or IT costs associated with a data center investment.

Digital Crossroad has already met the investment threshold that allows up to 50 years of 0 sales tax on its clients' IT infrastructure.Thanks to sensible fiscal management, the state of Indiana is on very sound financial footing with a AAA bond rating. Indiana is ranked 4th in the nation for top business climate and 10th in the nation for best tax climate.

From its brownfield construction to its use of renewables, DX-1 significantly reduces the environmental impact and helps the local community create a bridge to the future. The site utilizes 100+ acres of landfill waste and over 500,000 cubic yards of recycled material.

DX-1 offers 100% renewable energy and will feature an 800kW onsite solar installation.
