What the source record says
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 source fetched this run 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; precision is approximate. 24,000 sq ft facility designed to support up to four subsea cable systems; capacityMw.planned=5 reflects the reported scalable-to-5MW power capacity, not a confirmed operational figure.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
