May, 2002 : dock.net Opens New Expanded Data Center Facility
📅 - Ventura County-Based ISP dock.net (dock.net) announced on Thursday that it has successfully moved into its new expanded facility and data center, allowing it to offer extended broadband and co-location services.
One of Southern California's leading independent ISPs, serving Ventura, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernadino and Riverside counties and providing nationwide dialup services, dock.net says it now has a data center capable of housing hundreds of co-located servers and thousands of DSL, T1, T3 and fixed wireless broadband connections.
The data center, says dock.net, is capable of housing both tower and rack-mount servers. It is supported by completely redundant power sources, air conditioning and alarm systems, as well as multiple backbone connections and enough bandwidth that it provides backbone services for several other ISPs.
"During our six years in business," says Bill Harrel, dock.net president, "we have consistently prided ourselves in maintaining a network design philosophy based on redundancy and reliability, with an emphasis on maintaining low customer-to-resources capability. In other words, we always have adequate bandwidth, ports, modems, and server space."
As part of the opening of the new facility, which increases dock.net's capacity five fold, the company is offering particularly low rates on T1 and co-location services, offering full point-to-point T1 service for under $600 and server co-location for $99. "Small and medium-sized businesses need these kinds of services to compete effectively," says Harrel. "It's about time somebody provides them at prices they can afford."
In addition to the expansion, dock.net says it has partnered with Skypipeline to provide fixed wireless broadband service to much of Southern California.
