A State-of-the-Art Data Center
The SVTIX data center offers the ultimate computing environment to keep your equipment up and running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our world-class facility is designed with 19 all new 20-ton Liebert units for HVAC temperature control systems, a double inter-lock pre-action fire system, redundant Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) and Power Distribution Units (PDU) as well as 24x7 secured access. With over 80,000 square feet of conditioned space, SVTIX can easily accommodate any and all of your telecommunications needs.A secure, strategically located site for your mission-critical computing assets
Silicon Valley Telecom & Internet Exchange is located at 250 Stockton Avenue directly behind the San Jose Arena in the heart of Silicon Valley, with excellent access to highways 101, 880, 87 and 85. It is 10 minutes from San Jose International Airport and three minutes from downtown San Jose or the Cahill train station. Our 94,700 square foot Telco-grade Internet facility, situated on approximately 2.9 acres, provides customers with access to over 14 major carriers and backbones in a carrier-neutral environment. SVTIX is situated on the fiber networks of more than ten major carriers, including four synchronous optical network (SONET) rings. It is also within 6/10ths of a mile from MAE West, the MCI WorldCom-managed west coast switch, or network access point (NAP), of the Internet. With close proximity to the MAE, interconnect speeds are faster and companies can realize significant fiber transfer cost savings by being located within the "last mile" to this major interconnection point. In addition, SVTIX is situated within a block of Pacific Gas & Electric’s downtown power substation, delivering critical power redundancy.
22 million dollar Enron data center buildout
Our data center includes the 17,000 square foot former Enron co-location and data center. This was the largest facility of the company’s Broadband Services division. This $22 million dollar custom-built facility -- designed as a super node -- offers specialized benefits, including a fully operational data center with a $4.5 million Lucent Bandwidth Manager and four Sycamore 8000 units (two Es and two Ts) valued at over $2 million. By acquiring this former Enron facility at zero construction cost, we can deliver world-class facilities at phenomenal rates.
A stronghold for your company’s critical assets
Our facility is an impressively constructed building formerly designated in the early 1960s as a Civil Defense Air Raid Bomb Shelter, offering rock solid physical security. This building boasts certified live loads of 150-200 lbs. psf., and has withstood every earthquake since it was built in 1943 due to its outstanding construction: steel-reinforced, poured-in-place concrete floors and walls and extensive support columns. In addition, in 1999 SVTIX engaged in a $2.4 million dollar retrofit for fire, handicapped, life safety and seismic upgrades. A new Telco grade roof was also incorporated into the retrofit. The seismic upgrades were made to secure "Essential Services" designation by the San Jose City building inspectors. 250 Stockton Ave. is designed to be the last building standing in San Jose in the event of emergency. Constructed specifically as a Telco hotel, the site includes abundant power, back-up diesel generators for power redundancy, 14’ clear height ceilings and fully conditioned facilities.
