Colocation Explained — Our Dallas Facilities



Colocation involves providing hardened space, highly managed environmentals, power & cooling, physical security, and connectivity to telecommunications and network service providers for your servers and networking equipment. This cocoon of elements allows our customers to focus on their core business and save money and time in the process. CoreXchange focuses on making sure your colocated servers stay up and running and at peak performance.
 
And here at CoreXchange, we’re determined to continually provide new types of affordable, high-capacity colocation solutions for businesses of all types and sizes.
 
But before we dive deeper into the many benefits server colocation can provide to our customers, let’s first explore colocation from the ground up and take a look at how our Dallas colocation facilities can serve you:
 
Space: Highly redundant data centers filled with single server, half cabinet and full cabinet and private cage solutions that are SSAE-16 SOC-1 Type II compliant. Our facilities also include covered docks with easy access for moving in your equipment (which is available around-the-clock, year-round).
 
Power: State-of-the-art power systems protected by KVA UPS systems. We also have a redundant bank of 1.5 MW generators that are managed on-site by our own facility engineers.
 
Cooling: We maintain highly optimized temperatures in our data center thanks to equipment like four massive 500-ton chillers, air handling units, 46 ice storage tanks, dual water mains and redundant chilled water capacity.
 
Security: We don’t take security lightly, and have built in a slew of redundant security mechanisms, including a secure entrance with a reliable perimeter fence, round-the-clock staffed check-in station and mantrap, extensive video surveillance both inside and out. Lightning protection and pre-action dry pipe fire detection and suppression systems are also included.
 
Soon on the CoreXchange blog, we’ll explore just a handful of the advantages that our colocation capabilities and facilities can give your business compared to in-house servers. In the meantime, check out our Why CoreXchange to see a complete checklist of benefits and features we offer.
