Source-reported capacity; not metered consumption. Review underlying documents and notes. Planned capacity may include future phases and is not added to operational capacity here. The source may use facility, grid-feed or IT capacity definitions; consult the linked documents.
Coordinate precision is a source label, not an independent parcel survey. A marker does not confirm utility territory or establish an effect on residential bills.

Source notes
AWS is the anchor tenant of the Fastnet transatlantic subsea cable (Ocean City, MD to Castlefreke, County Cork, Ireland; ~320 Tbps across 16 fiber pairs); Globalinx's lease agreement was signed late 2025 with a targeted Q3 2027 ready-for-service date and Fastnet operational in 2028. No cited source states a specific street address or parcel — reporting places the site 'near Ocean City Municipal Airport' off Route 611 / Stephen Decatur Highway outside Berlin. Coordinates are therefore a disclosed representative pin at Ocean City Municipal Airport (via OSM Nominatim), not a confirmed parcel location; the location is approximate. 24,000 sq ft facility designed to support up to four subsea cable systems; the planned capacity of 5 MW reflects the reported scalable-to-5MW power capacity, not a confirmed operational figure.
