AWS announces new AWS Direct Connect location in Chicago, Illinois

Today, AWS announced the opening of a new AWS Direct Connect location within the Coresite CH1 data center in Chicago, Illinois. By connecting your network to AWS at the new Illinois location, you gain private, direct access to all public AWS Regions (except those in China), AWS GovCloud Regions, and AWS Local Zones. This is the fourth AWS Direct Connect site within Chicago Metropolitan area and the 44th site in the United States.

The Direct Connect service enables you to establish a private, physical network connection between AWS and your data center, office, or colocation environment. These private connections can provide a more consistent network experience than those made over the public internet. The new Direct Connect location at Coresite CH1 offers dedicated 10 Gbps and 100 Gbps connections with MACsec encryption available.

For more information on the over 140 Direct Connect locations worldwide, visit the locations section of the Direct Connect product detail pages. Or, visit our getting started page to learn more about how to purchase and deploy Direct Connect.
