    Connectivity

    OC-12 and OC-48 redundant fiber optic connections link our data center to the Internet backbone and provide gobs of bandwidth and network capacity for maximum reliability and scalability. See our Network Speed Tests and real-time Network Uptime.

    Connectivity
    Power

    Electricity in the data center is conditioned and filtered by a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) system with redundant feeds to city of Portland utility power substations and a 750-kilowatt generator, which provides power during electrical outages. If needed, the generator can supply electrical power to the entire data center.

    Cooling

    Seven 15-20 ton, fully redundant HVAC environmental cooling systems with humidity control ensure that the data center is always operating at a temperature for optimum server performance. Raised floors allow for efficient cooling distribution.
