nLighten Data Center

Frankfurt

As well as forming the heart of Germany’s financial services industry, Frankfurt is also the country’s key data center, IT and telecommunications hub. It offers multiple long-distance international networks as well as excellent access, with a wide range of public transport offerings. For nLighten, all these advantages made it an exceptional city in which to establish one of our first German data centers.

The data center is conveniently located in Eschborn, on the main road just off the A5 motorway, 350 meters from a train station and just 15 minutes by car from Frankfurt airport and from Frankfurt central train station. The data center has an area of almost 2500 m², 2400 kW of power, an office area and ample parking space.

Like the other nLighten facilities, the Frankfurt data center will enable our customers to benefit from a very well-connected, high-availability data center and capable of housing high density cabinets. The data center comes with a number of On-Site Services and a growing eco-system of partners, all there to optimally support our customers IT environment.
