AmeriNOC.com maintains a custom private suite inside the carrier neutral AIS Data Center which is located in the San Diego Tech Center, inside the heart of the Sorrento Valley area of San Diego. The site offers a mix of cabinet, cage and custom space, as well as roof rights for microwave links and other antennae systems. The facility is fed from SDG&E with 4000 amps at 480 Volts.
The San Diego Tech Center is home to a number of data/telecom industry tenants and is rich with fiber, with every major carrier in the area represented. Fiber Providers include: AT&T, Cogent, Cox, Level 3, Telepacific, Time Warner, TW Telecom, Savvis, Sprint, Verizon and XO. Diverse fiber pathways accommodating Sonnet rings are provided from the listed carriers. The DC is a true carrier/optically neutral facility with large (2000 sq. ft) Meet Me Room and separate POP room for carriers and fiber providers. The AIS performance-routed blended network includes the following: AT&T, Global Crossing, Level 3, Savvis, Sprint, Verizon, XO & peering via Any2 Exchange & Cenic. This is the bandwidth product we use from AIS along with our direct connections to Level3 and Bandcon.
Many colocation companies these days claim to have state of the art facilities. When this facility was built, no expense was spared. 10 million dollars was spent to build 25,000 square feet of data center. An additional 5 million has been invested in network infrastructure and upgrades. It shows as well as it functions. Our facility is equal to or better than any facility ever built in San Diego. The AIS-Tech Center DC is a SSAE 16 compliant data center that features N+1 or better redundancy on all data center systems and security protocols required by leading businesses in the most stringent verticals.
