Why prices sit where they do
Sydney sets the Australian price: 5 of the 6 facilities in our national catalog sit here, holding 257 of the country's 377 MW. That concentration is why one metro behaves as two markets. The legacy interconnection nodes near the CBD carry the carriers, the exchanges and the financial cross connects, and they sell by the rack; the western corridor is where AirTrunk, CDC and Macquarie put campuses that sell by the megawatt. On the western side the binding constraint is grid connection rather than land, so already-energised space carries the premium. 3 of the 5 facilities are marketed as AI-ready and only 1 holds a published Tier III or IV certification. Sydney also anchors the Pacific, 103 ms to Tokyo and 100 ms to Kuala Lumpur. Run the two tiers as separate procurements: buying interconnection-grade space for compute that does not need it is what makes Sydney look expensive.
