Our Data Center

Logical Imagination, LLC owns its own equipment and houses it in a $15 million telco-grade data center located in Austin, TX. Built in 2001 and originally built for Verio, this data center is fully redundant in every way, and is scaled to meet growing demands far into the future. This is truly a first-class facility, and we have been very pleased with the reliability and performance it extends to our hosting customers!

Internet Data Center Specs
Real Estate Summary
Area	Total - 30,000 square feet Total Raised Floor – 21,133 square feet
Power
UPS	(4) 500 kVA (expandable to six) PowerWare 9315 parallel, redundant UPS systems dedicated to the colocation area provide 30 minutes runtime at full load (2) 80 kVA (expandable to 3) PowerWare parallel, redundant UPS systems provide additional UPS infrastructure dedicated to the POP
Generators	(2) 1875 kVA (1,500 KW) Caterpillar diesel generators. Prebuilt slab and electrical conduits provide expansion for third 1875 kVA generator 6,000 gallon fuel capacity onsite allowing 48+ hours runtime at N+1
Utility	400 Megawatt Austin Energy sub-station dedicated to Met Center. Fully prebuilt transformer pad provides expansion capabilities (2) ASCO 3,000 AMP, 480 Volt parallel Automatic Transfer Switches (ATSs), each with redundant TVSS surge protectors
PDU's	PDI 150 kVA Power Distribution Units (PDUs) capable of 120 Volt and 220 Volt power
Grounding	Entire data center connected to grounding system All external infrastructure protected by lightning protection system
Security
Internal	50 camera, color, IP-based CCTV surveillance system records full-motion video to multiple DVRs and takes video clips upon every door opening Hand Key Biometric Access Control System, individually keyed cabinets, cages and optional private suites provide maximum security and privacy Man traps at all external doors prevent unauthorized access
External	Concrete filled, steel reinforced barriers surround exterior. Foundation is slab on grade with a 5-foot riser Barbed wire fence surrounds external infrastructure External cameras monitor outside environment
HVAC
CRAC's	(20) 30-ton Liebert CRACs (Computer Room Air Conditioners) with expansion to (30) 30- ton CRAC units Constant temperature at 72 +/- 2 degrees and relative humidity at 50% CRACs utilize non-water-based Glycol
Glycol Condensing Unit	(13) 78-ton Liebert Glycol Condensing Units (GCUs) – 1,014 tons of capacity N+2 Redundancy - full operational mode is maintained in the event of failure of up to two of the twenty CRACs and up to two of the thirteen GCUs (2) 50-ton HVAC units dedicated to UPS and Electric Rooms
Fire Prevention and Suppression
Phase 1	HSSD (High Sensitivity Smoke Detection) sensors continuously sample the air at adjustable periods of time for smoke, chemicals and heat. HSSD can detect fire up to 30 minutes prior to smoke and/or flame.
Phase 2	Localize and Isolate the source and use FE36 handheld extinguishers.
Phase 3	FM-200 building-wide system. (39) FM-200 systems are distributed across the entire Data Center. FM-200 non-conductive and non-corrosive gas prevents equipment damage that could otherwise result from traditional water-based systems. FM-200 is a safe alternative to Halon.
Phase 4	Dual Interlock, Dry Pipe, Pre-Action Sprinkler System. Pressurized dual interlock system ensures no water is above any equipment in the Data Center.
Building Management Control
A building management system control monitors and reports any abnormal conditions within the Internet Data Center. This system can be remotely operated.
Telco Fiber Facilities (at max capacity)
OC-48 - Time Warner OC-48 - El Paso Global Networks OC-48 - Qwest OC-48 - Grande Communications OC-12 - Southwestern Bell
Internet Infrastructure
(2) Cisco 12000 series routers (2) Cisco Catalyst 6500 switches Multi-homed, redundant connectivity to global upstream providers
