Omnexus IX Wichita is connected to DE-CIX Dallas at 1950 Stemmons Freeway (DataBank DFW5), Dallas over a 100G wave. Every network peering on DE-CIX Dallas is available for Layer 2 peering in Wichita. You reach them from the same port you use to peer locally.

Latency
Local traffic stays local
Without a local exchange, traffic between two Wichita networks often travels to a distant hub and back. On Omnexus IX it is exchanged in Wichita, with round-trip times in the low single-digit milliseconds, and networks not yet available locally are reachable on DE-CIX Dallas in under 15 ms.
That difference matters most for AI inference, real-time applications and the cloud services businesses rely on every day.
