Lumen Melbourne 1 Data Center 2MW Colocation

Status: Operational   |   Location: 1110 Line Street, Melbourne, FL 32901, USA

Project Overview

The Lumen Melbourne 1 Data Center, located at 1110 Line Street in Melbourne, Florida, is a telecommunications switching node and enterprise colocation facility positioned within the Space Coast technology corridor. The facility spans approximately 18,000 square feet of heavy concrete infrastructure and is designed to provide secure, reliable, and highly connected hosting environments for government organizations, defense contractors, healthcare networks, regional enterprises, and other businesses with mission-critical IT requirements. Its colocation environment provides flexible deployment options, including standard server cabinets for conventional enterprise workloads, high-density racks for deployments requiring greater computing capacity, and secure private cages for customers that require additional physical separation and controlled access. The facility's location in Melbourne places it within an important technology and telecommunications ecosystem associated with aerospace, defense, healthcare, engineering, and commercial activity across Florida's Space Coast. Power resilience is a central component of the facility's design. Utility power is supplied through redundant distribution paths from Florida Power & Light, providing separate electrical pathways and reducing reliance on a single incoming source. Static N+1 uninterruptible power supply systems provide additional protection against power interruptions and equipment failures, while industrial standby diesel generators provide emergency power during extended utility outages. This layered electrical architecture is designed to support continuous operation of customer IT equipment and critical network systems. Lumen Melbourne 1 is also directly integrated into Lumen's global high-speed fiber backbone, giving customers access to extensive network infrastructure and diverse connectivity routes. Multiple fiber entry paths improve network resilience by providing alternative physical routes into the facility, while dark fiber connectivity allows organizations with specialized networking requirements to establish dedicated optical connections. Direct private cloud connectivity to major platforms including AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud further expands the facility's role as an enterprise connectivity hub, enabling customers to build hybrid cloud and multi-cloud environments using dedicated network connections. These capabilities are particularly valuable for organizations operating latency-sensitive applications, distributed enterprise systems, cloud workloads, and regional edge computing deployments. The facility's Melbourne location also enables businesses to position computing and networking resources closer to Space Coast users and organizations while maintaining access to broader regional and national networks. By combining secure colocation, redundant power infrastructure, emergency generation, diverse fiber connectivity, dark fiber access, and private cloud connections, Lumen Melbourne 1 provides an integrated platform for mission-critical digital infrastructure. Overall, the facility functions as an important low-latency telecommunications and edge computing node supporting enterprise, government, defense, healthcare, and technology workloads across Melbourne, the Space Coast, and the wider Florida market.
