Saragon Launches as New U.S. Data Center Company Purpose-Built for AI Inference and Edge Colocation

Backed by up to $1 billion from I Squared Capital, Saragon launches with ten data centers across nine major U.S. markets, 53 MW of installed power capacity and significant room for expansion

Steve Orlando appointed as CEO and Kevin Dalton appointed President, bringing together extensive experience across digital infrastructure, connectivity and large-scale data center development

Saragon data center facility at dusk

PHOENIX, Ariz. — August 19, 2026 — Saragon, a new U.S. data center company built to serve the growing demand for colocation, high-density computing and AI inference infrastructure, today announced its official launch. Backed by up to $1 billion in committed capital from I Squared Capital ("I Squared"), a leading global infrastructure investor, Saragon begins operations with ten data centers across nine strategically located U.S. markets and plans to scale rapidly through investment in its existing footprint, customer-led expansion and additional acquisitions.

Saragon was established following I Squared's acquisition of ten data center facilities from Cogent Fiber, LLC, a subsidiary of Cogent Communications Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CCOI). The portfolio spans Chicago, Atlanta, Phoenix, Los Angeles, Kansas City, Baltimore, Houston, Nashville, and Stockton with approximately 53 megawatts of installed power capacity and 259,000 square feet of colocation space. Together, these markets serve a combined population of more than 63 million people, positioning Saragon's infrastructure close to the enterprises, networks and end users driving demand for low-latency computing.

Saragon is positioned for a fundamental shift in the digital infrastructure landscape. As artificial intelligence moves from the training of models toward widespread deployment and everyday use, a growing share of computing demand is expected to move closer to population centers and end users. Saragon's facilities combine high-density-enabled power infrastructure, liquid-cooling capabilities and dense, multi-carrier fiber connectivity, including proximity to local internet exchanges, to support AI inference and other latency-sensitive workloads.

The portfolio also offers a scarce combination of location, power and connectivity in metropolitan markets where new data center supply is increasingly constrained. All ten facilities are purpose-built data centers, owned outright with room for expansion, giving Saragon a strong foundation from which to add capacity as customer requirements grow.

Saragon will be led by Chief Executive Officer Steve Orlando, who joins from Seaborn Networks, where he spent nearly six years as CEO of the operator of Seabras-1, the subsea cable system connecting Brazil and the United States. Alongside him, Kevin Dalton has been appointed President and brings more than 30 years of data center development experience, most recently serving as Chief Data Center Officer at Cumulus Data, a division of Talen Energy.

"Demand for edge capacity is accelerating across everything we do — retail, enterprise, and wholesale colocation alike — as businesses of every kind bring compute closer to their users," said Steve Orlando, Chief Executive Officer of Saragon. "AI inference is the newest driver, but the same fundamentals power content delivery, hybrid cloud, and mission-critical enterprise workloads. With a launch footprint spanning nine major markets across the country and the backing of I Squared Capital, Saragon is built to deliver that capacity where our customers need it most."

Saragon will pursue a multi-faceted growth strategy, expanding capacity through targeted investment, customer-led expansion and additional acquisitions, both within its existing markets and by entering new edge locations across the United States. The company will serve customers across the full spectrum of colocation requirements, including retail colocation for single-cabinet deployments, enterprise colocation for mission-critical corporate infrastructure, and wholesale colocation for customers requiring dedicated, large-scale capacity. Saragon will also support high-density and liquid-cooled deployments and interconnection-rich environments for AI inference, content delivery, and hybrid-cloud workloads.

About Saragon

Saragon is a U.S. data center company specializing in retail, enterprise, and wholesale colocation, high-density deployments, and AI inference infrastructure. Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, Saragon operates ten facilities across nine major U.S. markets, delivering approximately 53 megawatts of installed power capacity and 259,000 square feet of colocation space to enterprises, network operators, and AI-driven businesses. Backed by up to $1 billion in committed capital from I Squared Capital, Saragon is building the edge infrastructure for the AI inference era. Learn more at www.saragoninfra.com.

Phoenix, AZFull-TimeSenior Vice PresidentNetwork Engineering & ITReports to the CMORegular travel to sites

Saragon is seeking a senior networking leader to own connectivity end to end — from the conduit in the street to the switch port at the rack. This role builds and runs four tightly linked domains: outside plant, inside plant, corporate IT, and back-office systems. As an early leader in the organization, you will set the network architecture standards, carrier relationships, and IT foundations the company scales on.

Responsibilities
  • Own outside plant strategy for every Saragon site — dark fiber acquisition, diverse path engineering, and carrier entry points from the property line to the meet-me room.
  • Negotiate dark fiber, lit services, IRUs, and carrier agreements so every facility launches with a competitive, diverse carrier lineup.
  • Lead connectivity due diligence for new sites and acquisitions, and manage OSP construction vendors through permitting, splicing, and acceptance testing.
  • Define Saragon's standard inside plant design — meet-me rooms, structured cabling, and demarcation — and operate the facility network fabric with the redundancy and change discipline colocation customers expect.
  • Own the cross-connect product operationally: ordering, provisioning, documentation, inventory, and billing accuracy, with clear SLAs.
  • Establish interconnection strategy — peering, IX presence, and cloud on-ramps — that strengthens the connectivity story for AI inference, enterprise, and regional cloud customers.
  • Build and run corporate IT for a distributed, fast-growing company: identity and access, endpoint management, collaboration tools, helpdesk, and SOC 2-aligned security fundamentals.
  • Own the back-office systems portfolio — ERP, HRIS, CRM, billing, DCIM, and monitoring — from platform selection and integration through implementation and governance.
  • Build the networking and IT team, partner with development and sales on each site's connectivity story, and report network availability and IT health to the executive team.
Qualifications
  • 7+ years in network engineering or telecom infrastructure (10+ preferred), with 5+ years in a leadership role; data center, carrier, or fiber operator experience strongly preferred.
  • Hands-on outside plant experience: dark fiber procurement, OSP construction management, route diversity engineering, and carrier negotiations.
  • Deep inside plant knowledge: meet-me room design, structured cabling standards (BICSI or equivalent), and cross-connect operations.
  • Strong corporate IT generalist background, plus proven experience selecting and implementing back-office platforms (ERP, CRM, HRIS, billing, or DCIM).
  • Experience evaluating connectivity in site selection or M&A due diligence, and integrating acquired facilities or companies.
  • Working knowledge of facility-scale routing and switching (BGP, VLANs, redundancy design); CCNP/CCIE or BICSI RCDD valued but not required.
  • Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, or a related field — or equivalent practical experience — and willingness to travel regularly to sites across North America.

Saragon is seeking a Principal Network Engineer to own everything that connects our facilities to the outside world — network technology strategy, outside plant fiber, and the carrier and interconnection ecosystem that makes each site valuable to customers. This role sets the carrier and interconnect strategy, evaluates the connectivity of prospective sites and acquisition targets, and leads network security and compliance across the portfolio.

Responsibilities
  • Own Saragon's network technology strategy and multi-year roadmap, leading technology and vendor selection for interconnection and optical infrastructure.
  • Design and own outside plant strategy for each site — diverse building entrances, conduit and pathways, laterals, and metro fiber routes — and oversee dark fiber, lit fiber, and conduit builds through construction.
  • Set carrier and interconnection strategy with carrier density goals per market; recruit and onboard carriers, fiber providers, and network partners, and architect meet-me room and cloud on-ramp offerings.
  • Lead external network evaluation of prospective sites and acquisition targets — carrier presence, fiber routes, entrance diversity, latency, and cost to connect — as input to investment decisions.
  • Own network security architecture: perimeter and edge security, firewalls, DDoS mitigation, segmentation, and secure management access.
  • Lead network-related compliance for SOC 1/SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and NIST, including control design, audit evidence, and customer security questionnaires.
  • Maintain accurate records of fiber routes, entrance facilities, splice points, and route diversity for every facility.
Qualifications
  • 12+ years in network engineering, including 7+ years in a data center, colocation, carrier, or service provider environment and 3+ years as a lead or principal architect.
  • Deep outside plant and fiber infrastructure experience — route design, diverse entrances, dark and lit fiber, and construction oversight.
  • Proven track record building carrier and interconnection ecosystems, including carrier recruitment, partner agreements, and meet-me room strategy.
  • Strong knowledge of BGP, IP transit, peering, optical transport, and cloud direct-connect services, plus network security architecture and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, NIST).
  • Established carrier, fiber provider, and OSP contractor relationships strongly preferred; CCIE/JNCIE and/or CISSP preferred.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, IT, or related field, or equivalent experience; travel up to 40% to sites, prospective sites, and carrier partners.
