Data Center

InteleNet, a Managed Data Hosting company, owns and operates a state-of-the-art SAS 70 Type II certified data center located in Irvine, California. This facility boasts fully redundant power with diesel generators for backup, diverse paths and providers for Internet access, and multi-tiered reliable security services.

Our Facility provides clients with industry leading physical environment control features and increased capacity and scalability to meet their growth needs.

 

Physical Security


InteleNet understands the critical nature of our clients' equipment. We have designed a comprehensive access and security policy for protection of infrastructure and systems.

 

These policies and procedures, optimized and certified with SAS 70 Type II Compliance, provide our customers with complete peace of mind in knowing their mission critical IT environment is secured.

 

Key features of the InteleNet security system include:

  • Onsite Security Personnel 24x7x365
  • Onsite 24x7x365 Network Operations Center, which monitors all external and internal security
  • Closed circuit television security system throughout the data center
  • Combination proximity card and photo identification system required to gain access to facility
  • Single Point of Contact (SPOC) for each client to ensure only authorized personnel has physical access to colocation space

Cooling Infrastructure

More and more Datacenters are falling short in trying to meet the growing demand for high density, scalable IT deployments. Unable to meet requirements for power and cooling necessary to support these environments, businesses find themselves unable to fully realize the potentials of the technologies they seek to use.

InteleNet has deployed a flexible and redundant HVAC design that supports the cooling requirements necessary for a truly high density IT platform.

 

InteleNet uses DataAire HVAC (High Volume Air Conditioning) equipment to support the cooling load requirements. The air is circulated under 18" raised flooring and perforated tiles, using a hot aisle / cold aisle containment method for optimum efficiency.

The HVAC system maintains optimum temperature (68/F +/-2/F) and humidity levels. The air is filtered continuously for contaminants, providing additional protection to equipment, and reducing the amount of resources needed for maintenance of overheated equipment, hardware replacement, and equipment cleaning.

Power Infrastructure

InteleNet offers a premier power system designed to provide continuous, redundant, and protected power to our clients. Built to N+1 redundancy, InteleNet employs proven solid and reliable power architecture in our data centers. The components of this implementation protect against such power anomalies and events as brownouts, blackouts, and surges or spikes in power.

Features And Functions of our power infrastructure include:

  • Dual Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) – Through our dual UPS System, Intellinet delivers clean, consistent power. The UPS system is comprised of rectifiers, inverters, and batteries and is designed to maintain constant power to all equipment in the data center, regardless of power source.
  • Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS ) - The automatic transfer switch (ATS) senses any significant interruption of power from the Utility Source. When an interruption is detected, the ATS immediately activates the onsite generator, feeding power to the UPS. A surplus supply of diesel fuel is stored onsite to fuel the generator for an extended period if necessary, additionally fueling contracts with local fuel companies ensure that the power needs of the entire data center will be served without interruption.
  • Load Testing - InteleNet performs routine testing of the system every month to ensure full functionality. We have experienced the brownouts and blackouts that have affected southern California and we are proud to say that none of our customers experienced any outages.

InteleNet’s Data Center was built with capacity planning in mind to ensure that power load can be maintained in the event of a power outage, as well as allow for additional UPS units and generators to be easily tied in as the facility expands.

Fire Protection

Ensuring that the Facility is protected from fire is vital to the security of your business. InteleNet views fire protection in a three-pronged approach: fire prevention, fire detection, and fire suppression.

Fire Prevention
As part of the design of InteleNet's data centers, specific limitations on amp usage and BTU output in each cabinet, cage and rack reduces the risk of electrical fires in the data center. We also control the flow of cooled air with the use of ventilated floor tiles to ensure consistent temperatures throughout the data center. Prohibitions on cardboard and other flammable materials are strictly enforced.

Fire Detection
InteleNet utilizes the industry leading Very Early Smoke Detection Alarm (VESDA) system for the detection of smoke and fire.
VESDA Aspirating smoke detection technology offers the earliest possible warning of a potential fire.

 

VESDA works by continually drawing air into the system's pipe network via a highly efficient aspirator. A sample of the air is then passed through a dual stage filtering system. From the filter, the sample goes to a calibration detection chamber laser light source. When smoke is detected, it communicates this information to a fire alarm control panel via a software management system the InteleNet Network Operations Center (NOC). We have installed this system so that we can identify and address any situation that arises as quickly as possible to reduce damage to the client's equipment.

Fire Suppression
The standard fire protection system for InteleNet is a dry pipe, double interlock pre-action fire sprinkler system
as defined by the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA). This type of system does not use toxic gases or destructive dry chemicals, which can prove detrimental to staff and our client's equipment. Our fire suppression system works in conjunction with the VESDA system in each of our data center facilities. Dry-Chem fire extinguishers are also located throughout the facility for added protection.
