Distinct Security Features of Spectranet Co-location Services
For affordable server hosting services, Data center Co-location is the most beneficial option. For co-location, the Data Center should be located in a secure place and should have excellent physical environment along with technologically advanced infrastructure.
Spectranet’s Co-location Servers are maintained round the clock and throughout a year with excellent HVAC and stringent security systems.
Spectranet’s Data Center is constructed to world class hosting standards as defined by the “Uptime Institute, USA”. The data center complies with T3 level. The facility is built across the ground floor, and protected against natural disasters like floods and earthquakes.
The data center is not only shock proof but also fireproof. To deal with fire, the latest technology such as state- of –the- art smoke detection and GAS based fire suppression systems, are used as an inherent part of Spectranet’s data centers. The co-location services of Spectranet are engineered to the highest levels with extensive systems to address security and network redundancy, enabling Spectranet to offer 99.9% infrastructure availability guarantee.
Security
Fire Suppression has three levels of redundancy namely Gas Fired Systems, Carbon Monoxide based systems and Water Sprinkler based systems.
The wire conduits and the fire protection systems are installed on false flooring and ceiling.
The entire facility around the data center is also equipped with a fire detection and smoke alarm system to alert the administration group in case of fire hazards, before this can affect the data center area.
Physical Protection Systems
The entire premise is monitored through video based close circuit TV system for 24X7 security surveillance.
General level security personnel are available on 24 hour basis at all the entry and exit point and the entrance of any non-employee is restricted to only one entry point.
Physical entry of any visitor or non-employee beyond the reception is permitted only with the authorized employee presence within the facility.
Physical access to the main Data Center facility is protected through a biometric fingerprint Scan facility with an added access card based authentication system.
Multi-homed Network & Centralized NMS (Network Management System)
The core network backbone is based on high-speed multiple megabit links which ensures high uptime for customers running their businesses to tight SLA’s. Trained operation technicians monitor and support internet network and customer applications equipments on 24/7 basis. Component level failures are detected by triggering alarms in the local Network Operation Center which allows our trained personnel to quickly respond and ensure that systems are operational. Our advanced Network Monitoring system even has an inbuilt capability to upgrade itself when it reaches 70% utilization, thereby addressing the issue of infrastructure scalability.
Innovative Support
Our technical support is staffed 24 hours a day to offer assistance in any area. We are accessible by means of
A) 24×7 Phone Support
B) 24×7 Smart Messaging
c) Via Email
Uninterrupted Power System
A high level of redundancy on the power front makes Spectranet a Self-Sustained Power Generation Unit.
The First Power backup comes from three redundant HSD Fuel Based Generator Sets. They generate power for all the commercial activities taking place over the total 20,000 sq ft area. These three units are built on a redundant circuit for usage with load sharing to generate electricity non-stop 24 hours a day.
Current power UPS systems are built on two 80 KVA units from APC in a redundant loop to run for full load 2 hour mode in case of a failure of the primary backup system. They provide clean conditioned power to the racks.
Atmospheric Conditioning
The special units of Data Centers deploy automated Tata Liebert Systems in pairs of 10 TR and 5 TR built on a full redundancy loop. The average temperature maintained in the data center is 17 degrees.
Based on bottom up airflow systems, the environment is controlled for atmospheric composition.
The Data Center Facility is isolated from the 2X170 TR air conditioning system of main facility. This system is hence utilized purely as a backup option in case of a failure in the main system.
Redundant Connectivity
Multiple STM1 fiber optic capacity across different routes, cable systems for data uplink are delivered to different POP’s of Spectranet across India to offer highest level of redundancy.

High end Servers & Network Equipment
Our Services are configured on world class systems and equipment i.e. General Instruments, Sun Microsystems, Compaq, Lucent Technologies, Juniper and Cisco Systems.
The Colocation Services of Spectranet are designed to meet the growing demands of businesses. Offering security, reliability and scalability to your mission critical applications, you can rest be assured that they are protected against power failure, flood, fire and intrusion.
