Globalinx picks Wirewerks for network connectivity in new four-phase 287,000 ft² data center serving the Mid-Atlantic region.
Wirewerks, a leading manufacturer of network infrastructure solutions, announced today that Globalinx has selected Wirewerks as their network connectivity and fiber management solutions provider at the pioneering new Globalinx data center campus in Virginia Beach, VA.
Globalinx's 21.5-acre, Tier-III carrier-neutral data center campus will allow Globalinx to provide data center services, colocation services and meet-me-room facilities to customers throughout the region. The Globalinx campus will facilitate the secure interconnection of domestic fiber networks with MAREA and BRUSA subsea fiber cables for communications to Europe, South America and beyond.
“Wirewerks connectivity solutions, including our super-high density NextSTEP Technology fiber management system, are enjoying great success in data center applications across North America. We are honoured by Globalinx's confidence in Wirewerks and our products, and we look forward to working in partnership with Globalinx on this important project.”
“Globalinx evaluated many manufacturers, however we were most impressed with Wirewerks and their overall organization. The deciding factor outside of Wirewerks providing Globalinx with a seamless and scalable end to end solution with their high density 4U NextSTEP patch panels, is the level of customer commitment and peace of mind we will benefit from having them as our business partner.”
