Nebraska · network infrastructure
Nebraska's snapshot has 10 facilities in 5 cities and 75 network presences. Omaha holds the concentration, where 1623 Farnam counts 49 networks by itself. OmahaIX operates in the same city with 52 participants, so a good share of state traffic meets locally rather than leaving Nebraska.
Internet exchanges in Nebraska
Exchanges are attributed to the state through the city they sit in, because PeeringDB records a state for facilities but not for exchanges.
| Exchange | City | Participants |

What a Nebraska IP address tells you
One building dominates Nebraska's record. 1623 Farnam in Omaha counts 49 of the state's 75 network presences, with Lincoln Data Centers next at 7 and TierPoint's Bellevue site at 5. The rest sit in small counts around Papillion, La Vista and Lincoln. OmahaIX runs in the same city and lists 52 participants, more networks than any single facility outside 1623 Farnam holds, so Nebraska networks that join it can exchange traffic without carrying it out of the state first.
A Nebraska address in a geolocation database reflects the record an operator published for that block rather than a measurement of the device. Registrations follow company paperwork, so a network with equipment in Omaha can file addresses to Nebraska while the users behind them connect from elsewhere. Mobile traffic widens the gap. AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon aggregate subscriber sessions behind regional gateways, so a handset connected in Nebraska can present an address that databases place in another state.
The prefix holds better evidence than a city label. Read the origin ASN on the route and the netname on the block. When the origin is a carrier mobile ASN, such as 27522 for AT&T or 32997 for T-Mobile, the address belongs to a national pool and the state attached to it comes from the operator's filing. Nebraska's 75 facility presences and 52 exchange participants describe where networks interconnect, not where individual addresses come to rest.

Questions
How many data centres are in Nebraska?
The snapshot lists 10 facilities across 5 Nebraska cities, holding 75 network presences. 1623 Farnam in Omaha accounts for 49 of them. Lincoln Data Centers has 7, TierPoint Omaha - Bellevue 5, and the remaining sites in Papillion, La Vista and Omaha count a handful each.
Is there an internet exchange in Nebraska?
OmahaIX is the only one in the snapshot, with 52 participating networks. That is a high count for a state with 75 facility presences, so networks with equipment in Omaha can hand traffic to each other locally instead of hauling it to another state.
Can I get an IP address in Nebraska?
Placement follows the operator's address registration rather than a customer's choice of state. A block reads as Nebraska when the network holding it filed the record that way, and mobile pools tend to be registered nationally, so a mobile session shows whatever state the operator recorded.
