Existing NY11-4 Fees Shown; NY11-5 Fees TBD
The Exchange's fee table for NY11-4 shows a cabinet installation fee of $5,490 and an ongoing monthly fee listed as $550 per kVA; the Exchange will insert "/TBD" to indicate that installation and monthly fees for NY11-5 have yet to be determined and will be filed separately. The Exchange will file proposals to establish fees for cabinets, cabinet power, and PDUs in NY11-5.
NY11-5 Adds Cabinets, Power, and PDUs
The Exchange will introduce in its future expansion area NY11-5 the same cabinet option and additional services that are currently available in NY11-4. NY11-5 will offer five specific cabinet power options (Phase 1 20 amp 240 volt; Phase 1 32 amp 240 volt; Phase 1 40 amp 240 volt; Phase 3 20 amp 415 volt; Phase 3 32 amp 415 volt) and will offer Phase 1 and Phase 3 PDUs plus a Switch Monitored PDU Add On.
Pre-orders Allowed; No Charges Until Access
Customers may place orders for NY11-5 services in advance, but they will not be fee liable for those services until they are granted access to their NY11-5 spaces for immediate use. The Exchange anticipates opening NY11-5 during the first quarter of 2026 and the Commission designated the proposed rule change to be operative upon filing (filed March 5, 2026).
