Hurricane Electric, a leading Internet Backbone and colocation provider, has announced the completion of the phase build out of its new colocation facility located in Silicon Valley, resulting in more than double the capacity that was available six months ago. The new 208,000ft┬▓ facility complements three other colocation facilities Hurricane Electric operates in San Jose, CA, Fremont, CA and New York, NY.
With the second phase build out completed, Hurricane Electric has added five additional private suites, several hundred cabinets, and more than doubled the capacity originally available. The new facility will have every amenity a customer could desire including a 24/7 knowledgeable on-site staff, HVAC environmental systems with upflow air conditioning units, conditioned uninterruptible power and back-up generators to prevent energy surges or loss of power, a high-tech security system with digital video surveillance custom designed to monitor every entrance, exit, hallway, and individual cabinet in the colocation facility, and a high-security card key system that monitors and limits access to certain areas in the facility.
48233 Warm Springs was also designed with individually locking suites, giving Hurricane Electric customers the ability to choose between colocation space in shared and private suites. Industry standard 19-inch rack mountable cabinets with perforated doors panels, combination-locking doors, and high-powered fans are located in each suite. In addition, Hurricane Electric’s new facility can support high-density applications such as blade servers.
