Fibre trunking pulled in

Last week finished off with Skanska back on site to pull the fibre trunking into the building.  Connecting via BT’s core network all the way to ntl:Telwest (Virgin) in Attercliffe, Sheffield – the fibre will be the primary internet link for the Sheffield Data Centre.

Free bandwidth until 2010!

After the Sheffield Data Centre opens on the 10th June, we’re offering all colocation customers free bandwidth until 2010.

Single server customers (rack server or tower server) will enjoy 1Mbit free bandwidth, and full rack customers will enjoy 5Mbit free bandwidth.

Full rack colocation details here:

Single rack server colocation details here:

Single tower server colocation details here:
http://www.sheffielddatacentre.com/colocation-towers.aspx

You get 1 IP address included with single servers, and up to 32 IP addresses with full racks.  If you need more IP addresses this is possible but may require justification to RIPE, if you can justify it you can have as many as you want!!
