Data Center Infrastructure Newark, New Jersey Facility
World-class facility strategically located in Newark, New Jersey. Expert support engineers are onsite 24/7, and undergo
regular code of conduct reviews. All facilities follow well-defined security policies. These policies are regularly audited
and modified, as needed, in order to maintain the highest standards. The Newark facility is SAS-70 certified, HIPAA compliant
and maintains current SunTonetm and IBM Hosting Advantagetm certifications.
Physical Security
Security personnel protect our facilities 24/7. Badge/photo ID access screening and biometric access screening are used for an
added level of security. We require all visitors to pass through multi-layered security zones and be escorted at all times.
Motion sensors and security breach alarms protect sensitive security areas. Security personnel continuously monitor video
cameras installed throughout the centers.
Power
Dual power availability to each rack unit from independent power distribution units (PDUs), removing PDU loss as a single point
of failure. To ensure stable connectivity, we provide a redundant Need+1 (N+1) design of uninterruptible power supplies using two
separate power feeds from separate power grids. Five redundant standby generators are equipped with 72 hours of diesel fuel on
site, and two contractors are on call to refuel the storage tanks.
Disaster Control
Our world-class facilities feature seismically braced racks and are designed to withstand disastrous conditions, ensuring that
your systems and equipment continue to run even under extreme conditions. A second point of presence is always available to
clients seeking fail-safe redundancy.
Environmental Controls
The facility maintains a Need+1 (N+1) system of cooling towers, water pumps and chillers to maintain a controlled environment.
Conditions are a uniform 72° with 50% relative humidity. Multiple air handling units provide another level of redundancy to
further ensure consistently sound environmental conditions.
Fire Protection
Fire detection and suppression systems ensure 24/7 protection of your critical systems. Dual fire detection systems and VESDA®
fire alarm systems are in constant operation. A multi-zone pre-action dry pipe system allows any necessary suppression to be
contained within the affected area. Conditions elsewhere will not be disrupted.
