Seattle, Washington (Westin Telecom Building)

Physical Security
Our primary hosting facilities are located in Westin Telcom Building in Downtown Seattle, which is currently the premier Class A datacenter on the entire west coast. As a benefit of being literally and figuratively connected to the backbone of the internet, we are able to effectively offer stability, reliability and premium bandwidth services to all servers housed in our facilities.

BUILDING. Our primary datacenter is located in The Westin Building in Seattle, WA, one of the largest carrier hotels on the west coast of the United States. The building is a class A, state of the art facility datacenter, earthquake proof and home to some of the largest Internet backbone providers such as AT&T, Internap, Worldcom, Sprint, Verizon, Global Crossing, Level3, Qwest and many others.

CONNECTIVITY. Being located in a major U.S Internet communication hub, Z7 Networks enjoys the ability to peer directly to major Internet backbone providers at the speed of Local Area Network (LAN). Our network is directly connected to Verio, Global Crossing, Genuity, Time Warner, Enron, Savvis, The SIX (Seattle Internet Exchange) and Cogent. Our traffic is also routed with Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) between our providers to ensure 100% network uptime. Our network connectivity design allows Internet users around the world to experience low latency, high uptime and ensures reliable packet delivery.

Since our facilities are carrier neutral, Co-location customers enjoy the ability to choose between multiple bandwidth providers via the Westin Building Meet-Me room network. The Meet-Me room services ranges from DSL, DS1 and all the way up to multiple OC-192s access through multiple fiber-optic and long-haul providers that includes AT&T, MCI, Global Crossing, Verizon, Qwest, XO, Level3 and Sprint.

POWER. Our facilities' power planning allows us to provide continuous power during disaster period such as city / statewide power outages. Our facilities provide power systems that feature continuous, redundant and protected AC or DC power, built to N+1 redundancy connected to multiple power providers in the Seattle metropolitan area. 15,000 gallons of diesel fuel power generator will kick in automatically to provide power during disaster period. We also have UPS systems installed to contain any power spikes, drops and transfer of power to the generator.

CLIMATE CONTROL. To ensure the reliability of your equipment operations, our datacenter is equipped with redundant Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems that maintain floor temperature at about 67 F (19.5 C). Humidity is also maintained at optimal level to keep static electricity level to its minimum. The building maintains closed loop condenser water system with redundant cooling tower cells and pumps.

As a measure to prevent fire, pre-action dry pipe sprinkler system with computer and telecommunications rated smoke and heat detection systems are installed in parts of the datacenter. FM 200 fire suppression systems are also installed in some areas of the datacenter.

SECURITY. Our datacenter offers 24x7 security personnel attending main entrances. All ingress and egress activities require card keys and are recorded via card access systems. CCTV cameras are installed in various parts of the building which provides continuous video recording of all entrance ways including server floor areas. Additional motion security cameras are also installed to track movements in restricted areas. Should there be unauthorized access, automatic SMS and/or pager alerts will be sent to our security officer.

MONITORING. Apart from the physical security, our datacenter is monitored 24x7 to ensure network and systems availability. Our network monitoring software is capable of monitoring all network and system equipment and automatically alerts our datacenter engineers in the event of system or network failure.
