I can assure you, that link already exists several times over. There are dozens of links between Aurora and 350 E Cermak, and dozens more between 350 E Cermak and Cateret, NJ. There's even an entire ISP based off the lowest latency link between Chicago and New York.

- acjohnson55 6y agoWhat's in Aurora? And why West Chicago in the original article? Amusingly, I grew up 2 towns over from Aurora and live 3 towns from Carteret now.
- jleahy 6y agoThe CME datacenter is in Aurora, and the ICE datacenter is in Chicago proper.
- acjohnson55 6y agoAh, cool. Is there a significant operation in West Chicago, too? From the article, I was still confused by why a shortwave tower would be located there. West Chicago is close to Aurora, I suppose, but if it's for CME data center, why not put the tower in Aurora?
- selectodude 6y agoHeh, that became very confusing. The post I replied to was edited at some point asking why there isn’t a direct microwave link down I-88 in Chicago. Sorry about that :)
