Flexential Portland - Hillsboro 2 Data Center

Status: Operational / Active Connectivity Anchor   |   Location: 5737 NE Huffman St, Hillsboro, OR 97124, USA

Project Overview

The Flexential Portland – Hillsboro 2 Data Center is a premier connectivity hub and high-density colocation facility operated by Flexential at 5737 NE Huffman St in Hillsboro, Oregon, USA. Commonly associated with the Network Access Point (NAP) of the Northwest, the facility plays an important role within the Pacific Northwest’s interconnection ecosystem, providing customers with access to extensive carrier, fiber, cloud, and subsea connectivity infrastructure. Spanning approximately 242,683 square feet, Hillsboro 2 provides around 18 MW of critical IT load capacity and is engineered to support enterprise, hyperscale, cloud, and network-intensive deployments. The facility’s strategic position within Hillsboro’s “Silicon Forest” technology corridor places it among a dense concentration of data centers and telecommunications facilities, allowing customers to benefit from proximity to major carriers, cloud service providers, enterprises, and regional network operators. Designed in accordance with Flexential’s Generation 4 data center standards, Hillsboro 2 incorporates infrastructure intended to support reliable operations and increasingly demanding computing environments. The facility is suitable for high-density computing, hybrid cloud deployments, enterprise applications, network infrastructure, content delivery, and other workloads requiring resilient power and high-capacity connectivity. Its connectivity ecosystem provides access to regional carrier backbones and long-distance fiber routes, while its association with trans-Pacific subsea infrastructure creates strategic pathways between North American networks and major Asia-Pacific markets. This makes the facility particularly valuable for organizations requiring low-latency international connectivity, cloud access, and diverse network routes across the Pacific Rim. Hillsboro 2 also benefits from Oregon’s strong renewable energy profile and access to the region’s hydroelectric generation resources, supporting the broader sustainability advantages associated with the Hillsboro market. As demand for cloud computing, artificial intelligence, digital services, and global network connectivity continues to expand, the facility provides an important platform for organizations seeking scalable colocation and interconnection capabilities. Its combination of high-density capacity, carrier diversity, cloud connectivity, and strategic subsea network access reinforces Flexential’s position in the Pacific Northwest and strengthens Hillsboro’s role as a major West Coast digital infrastructure hub.
