The Federal District snapshot records 11 facilities, all in Brasília, holding 97 network presences. Elea BSB2 is the densest with 35 networks, ahead of PIX G8 Brasília at 16 and Elea BSB1 at 11. No internet exchange appears in the district, so networks peer outside it.

What a Federal District IP address tells you
Brasília is the only city the snapshot names, and all 11 facilities sit there. Elea BSB2 counts 35 networks, PIX G8 Brasília 16, and Elea BSB1 11, which between them hold about two thirds of the district's 97 network presences. The two BR.Digital buildings add nine and five, and PIX Hilan, Eletronet, PIX Serpro and SITELBRA record between four and six each. No internet exchange appears in the district and the peer count is zero, so networks with equipment in Brasília arrange peering elsewhere.
An address that geolocates to the Federal District reflects the registration its operator published for that block, not the position of a device. Brazil's mobile operators concentrate subscribers behind regional gateways, so a phone in Brasília can present an address recorded in another state, and a district registration can appear on traffic from far outside it. Claro carries mobile subscribers on AS22085, TIM on AS26615, and Vivo on AS26599 and AS27699.
The origin ASN and the netname on the prefix answer more than the state field does. With 97 network presences and no exchange in the record, most of what routes through Brasília belongs to operators that also hold capacity in other states, and their blocks carry whichever location they filed. Looking up the organisation behind a prefix shows you who chose that location and how much weight the district label deserves.

Questions
How many data centres are in the Federal District?
PeeringDB lists 11 facilities, all of them in Brasília, holding 97 network presences. Elea BSB2 is the densest with 35 networks, then PIX G8 Brasília with 16, Elea BSB1 with 11 and BR.Digital Brasília BSA2 with nine. PIX Telebrás records no networks.
Is there an internet exchange in the Federal District?
Not in this snapshot. The district records no exchange and no peers, so the networks present in Brasília exchange traffic through transit providers or through exchanges in other states rather than settling it between themselves locally.
Can I get an IP address in the Federal District?
Placement follows the operator's address registration, not a customer's choice of state. A block reads as Brasília because its holder published that location in the registry. Mobile addresses are less predictable, since Claro, TIM and Vivo aggregate subscribers behind gateways registered outside the district.
