Telxius, a leading global connectivity provider, has built a carrier-neutral, AI-ready Landing Gateway & Edge Data Centre in Cancun, Mexico. This new infrastructure will strengthen Mexico\u2019s position as a strategic connectivity hub for the Caribbean, US and Latin America, with direct access to Tikal, the highest-capacity submarine cable between Puerto Barrios, Guatemala and Boca Raton, US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Telxius\u2019 Cancun Landing Gateway & Edge Data Centre is directly integrated into the company\u2019s global backbone, offering access to major digital hubs across the Americas and Europe. It serves as the landing point for the Tikal submarine cable, providing a key diverse route in the Caribbean, while simultaneously housing a state-of-the-art, Edge data centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Purpose-built to support data-intensive and latency-sensitive workloads, the new facility delivers Tier III standards with N+1\/2N redundancy across critical power and cooling systems and advanced physical and network security. Its carrier-neutral design enables customers to interconnect with multiple networks, cloud providers and digital platforms from Mexico, through a single infrastructure ecosystem. Together with its existing SAm-1 and PCCS infrastructure, Telxius\u2019 Punta Cana Landing Gateway and the upcoming Tikal and CELIA subsea cables, the new Cancun facility further strengthens Telxius\u2019 network and position in the Caribbean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019re excited to expand our network footprint in Mexico with our new facility in Cancun. It truly reflects the convergence of subsea connectivity, terrestrial networks and Edge infrastructure to create a unique digital hub for the Caribbean and the Americas,\u201d said M\u00f3nica Mart\u00ednez, CMO at Telxius. \u201cBy bringing connectivity and computing resources closer to where demand is growing, we enable lower latency, greater resilience and faster access to cloud, content and AI-driven services for customers across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tikal is set to launch in the first half of 2027 with an estimated initial capacity of 380 Tbps on its main trunk. With a landing point at Telxius\u2019 Cancun facility, Tikal delivers a key route to the US with high levels of reliability and security. The Cancun facility also provides an alternative route to Santiago de Quer\u00e9taro in Mexico, expanding Telxius\u2019 presence across the country while enhancing resilience and redundancy for customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The launch underscores Telxius\u2019 commitment to strengthening digital infrastructure across Mexico, the Caribbean and the wider Americas, following its recent network expansion in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Together, Tikal and Telxius\u2019 Cancun Landing Gateway & Edge Data Centre, will provide a highly resilient, carrier-neutral platform for international traffic. This supports OTTs, cloud and content providers, AI and CDN Edge deployments, while enhancing regional interconnection requirements and route diversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
