Vantage Data Centers: Fredericksburg VA4-BUILDING 3 Data Center

PNH4 VA-4 Building 3 Data Center, part of Vantage Data Centers’ Fredericksburg (VA4) Data Center Campus, is a large-scale, carrier-neutral digital infrastructure facility under development in Stafford County, near Fredericksburg, Virginia, USA. The VA4 campus is designed to serve enterprise, cloud, hyperscale, and connectivity-intensive workloads, providing strategic access to the Mid-Atlantic region’s robust digital ecosystem while complementing Northern Virginia’s established data center ecosystem.

⚙️ Facility Highlights

1. Part of a state-of-the-art data center campus planned to host three two-story facilities with a combined 192 MW of critical IT load.
2. Designed for high-density deployments with average power densities up to 500 kW per row, addressing modern compute and AI workloads.
3. Built with N+1 redundancy across electrical and mechanical systems to support continuous operations and mission-critical workloads.
4. Robust electrical infrastructure includes support from a private 270 MW on-site substation and dedicated utility power.
5. Flexible cooling architecture supports both traditional air-cooled compute and advanced liquid-cooled systems capable of handling 100 % of IT loads.
6. Modular facility configuration supporting scalable colocation, private suites, and customer-specific build-outs.
7. Scheduled phased delivery, with the first building on campus expected to be operational in late 2027.

🔐 Security & Compliance

1. Multi-layer physical security, including perimeter fencing, controlled access points, and 24/7 on-site security personnel.
2. Continuous CCTV monitoring with coverage of all major access points and critical infrastructure areas.
3. Dual authentication for secure access (badge/PIN plus biometric) to sensitive areas.
4. Fire detection and suppression systems designed to protect IT environments and minimize risk.
5. Built under Vantage’s global operational standards with alignment to major compliance frameworks and best practices, including U.S. data protection and physical security requirements.

🌐 Connectivity & Carrier Access

1. Carrier-neutral connectivity with multiple diverse fiber entry paths, enabling customers to choose and manage their preferred network providers.
2. At least two Meet-Me-Rooms (MMRs) and diverse point-of-entry pathways per building for maximum connectivity redundancy.
3. Access to both lit and dark fiber, supporting hybrid cloud, WAN interconnects, and regional traffic aggregation.
4. Strong regional connectivity to Northern Virginia, Washington, D.C., and other East Coast network hubs.

💼 Who It Serves

1. Enterprises and multinational organizations requiring high-availability infrastructure outside congested metropolitan cores.
2. Cloud, SaaS, and hyperscale operators deploying edge or regional capacity closer to end customers.
3. Telecom carriers and network service providers seeking additional points of presence in the Mid-Atlantic region.
4. Managed service providers and system integrators supporting distributed IT and networking architectures.
5. Organizations implementing hybrid IT, disaster recovery, and multi-site deployments across the U.S. East Coast.
