Our data center and is not co-located
or affiliated with any other hosting company/data center. Our data
center is strategically located in Phoenix, Arizona where we are
generally free from all natural disasters such as earthquakes,
tornado's, hurricanes etc... Our data center has state of the art
Juniper routers and HP Gigabit switches and is 100% fiber optic. We have
60+ tons of automatic redundant Liebert HVAC (climate control) for
maximum server reliability. We have redundant power backup including
PowerWare UPS and a half MegaWatt Detroit Diesel powered generator
system with an automatic transfer panel. Should utility power ever fail,
the UPS systems kick in and power the building while the generator
automatically starts and then switches from utility to generator power
in less than 1 minute. When utility power is restored, the ATS switches
back to utility power. The UPS systems also condition and voltage
regulate incoming power to ensure consistent and clean power to all
servers, routers and switches. We support all sizes and shapes of
servers from 1U rackmount to full tower cases. All servers have a
dedicated switch port for the best in speed and security.
We have redundant Sonet ring
transport fiber from multiple telco's. These rings have a minimum
capability for at least 6 OC-192s each. Fiber optic lines are much more
reliable then copper as they are not subject to electrical or
environmental interference. In addition, fiber optical cabling has a
much greater capacity for bandwidth then copper. The SONET ring
technology carries the fiber optical cable in multiple rings giving any
point on the ring access to any other point on the ring even if the
cable is cut. It is important to note that many data centers and hosting
companies share bandwidth and lines, whether fiber optic or copper. We
run own private dedicated fiber lines and its own private dedicated
internet connections (bandwidth).
