Internet Data Center) Fremont, California – March 15, 2006 – Hurricane Electric, a leading
Internet Backbone and Colocation Provider, announced today the grand
opening of its new Internet Data Center in Silicon Valley. The new
208,000 square foot facility complements three other colocation
facilities Hurricane Electric operates in San Jose, CA, Fremont, CA
and New York, NY. In addition to this Hurricane Electric also
offers colocation with 20 Internet data centers worldwide.
Hurricane Electric’s new building, located at 48233 Warm Springs
Blvd. Fremont, CA, is less than two miles from its existing Fremont
Internet Data Center, and at 208,000 square feet, it is more than
four times its size.
“This is an exciting time of growth for Hurricane Electric. Our
customers have eagerly anticipated the opening of this new facility.
Its size alone will allow us to serve our customers growing demand
for colocation space and managed data housing well into the future.
And, with our proximity to so many major networks, we anticipate
becoming a significant global epicenter of Internet traffic,” said
Mike Leber, president of Hurricane Electric.
The new Internet Data Center will have every amenity a customer
could desire including a 24/7 knowledgeable onsite 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 Internet Data
Center, and a high-security card key system that monitors and limits
access to certain areas in the Internet Data Center.
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.
New domestic and international clients now have the choice to
collocate their equipment in the original San Jose facility, the
existing Fremont facility, the New York facility, or the new Fremont
facility. For more information on 48233 Warm Springs, email mattl@he.net
