Colocation
MBC provides carrier-class Colocation services at its 20 Node Sites in Southside Virginia. These services are available for MBC members who require secure rack space in an MBC node facility for equipment storage, or to locate servers for back-up data storage and retrieval. MBC provides telco-grade 23” open racks for members in the designated colocation area. Each MBC Node has the following features:
- 24×7 unescorted access with separate entrance door and key-card access for members.
- 24×7 monitoring of facility, including temperature, power, access, and humidity.
- 30KW diesel generator backup, all monitored 24×7.
- Carrier-grade grounding of all racks and electrical systems with master ground bars.
- AC and DC power systems with Dual A&B Feeds.
- Unlimited cross-connect inside the Node facility at no cost to members.
- Only fiber is allowed to route into MBC Node facilities. Coax, Copper (Cat5/6) and other media are supported for cross-connects inside the Node facility.
For a standard colocation, an MBC member is provided with 20amps DC and 10amps AC, a 23” rack, and secure key-card access. Additional power is available, and multiple racks can be installed if space is available. MBC has the ability to upgrade or expand the Node facilities as member needs dictate.
