NJFX, a colocation provider, has announced the completion of a comprehensive Basis of Design for a new 10MW high-density AI data hall that will feature 8 MW of usable IT load at an expected PUE of 1.25. The data hall will be located on its campus, which sits 64 feet above sea level in Wall Township on the Jersey Shore, between Asbury Park and Point Pleasant.
In a press release NJFX said that the new hall, internally named Project Cool Water, is designed specifically for high-density, liquid-cooled workloads and incorporates N+1 power distribution, full UPS protection, AFC chillers, CDUs, hot-aisle containment, and a fan-wall cooling system to meet the thermal demands of GPU-intensive environments. NJFX claims that it will be the first purpose-built cable landing station campus in North America to support liquid-to-the-chip AI-ready infrastructure.
It further revealed that the NJFX campus hosts four subsea cables linking North America to Europe and South America and is located within 7 milliseconds of more than 100 million U.S. residents. With over 35 active network operators on-site, NJFX enables inference-ready interconnection for the next generation of AI and Generative AI workloads.
CEO Gil Santaliz CEO and Founder, NJFX, said, “This new design ensures that subsea cables and global network carriers can continue to scale now with an advanced data hall engineered for the AI era.”
Ryan Imkemeier, Vice President of Operations, NJFX, said, “To support NJFX’s next-generation environment, we secured additional power capacity through the utility substation located directly on our campus. This investment demonstrates our long-term commitment to reliability, scalability, and regional resiliency.”
With expanded power, engineered liquid cooling, and fully diverse subsea and terrestrial connectivity, NJFX is positioning its campus as a high-resiliency landing point for both global networks and AI-optimized data center growth.
