Hurricane Electric Establishes PoP in VegasNAP Las Vegas Colocation Facility

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) March 2, 2011

VegasNAP, LLC (http://www.vegasnap.com), a premier provider of colocation, disaster recovery, and managed IT services based in Las Vegas, Nevada, today announced that Hurricane Electric, the worlds largest IPv6-native Internet backbone and a leading global network services provider has established a Point-of-Presence (PoP) within the VegasNAP datacenter facility.

Now that Hurricane Electric is operating a PoP in our Las Vegas colocation facility, both our clients as well as other local and regional businesses have the unique opportunity to connect directly to one of the top-ranked global Internet backbones. Clients within our facility will now be able to access Hurricane Electrics network with a simple cross connect, and any businesses that wish to connect that do not have a presence at VegasNAP can do so using one of the numerous transport providers that are available at our facility. This new PoP is a big step in our goal to become the primary network access point (NAP) for Southern Nevada, stated Rob Tyree, VegasNAPs Chief Technology Officer.

The VegasNAP datacenter facility, which will host the new PoP, is a 7000 sq. ft. carrier-neutral datacenter facility located in the heart of Las Vegas, Nevada. The facility features high-end security and access control systems, digital remote monitoring and recording equipment, and ultra-reliable uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems for continuous power availability with on-site generator backup to ensure the highest standards of stability and uptime.

“Las Vegas is a growing telecom market and in order to operate in our business of interconnecting with other networks and providing them with native IPv6 connectivity, we needed a truly carrier neutral colocation facility to work with. VegasNAP fills this vital role,” said Mike Leber, President of Hurricane Electric.

Hurricane Electric offers IPv4 and IPv6 transit solutions over the same connection at speeds of up to 10 Gbps. Within its global network, Hurricane has 45 major exchange points with connectivity to more than 1,600 different networks. Employing a resilient fiber topology, Hurricane Electric has no less than four redundant paths crossing North America, two separate paths between the U.S. and Europe, and rings in Europe and Asia.

Hurricane Electrics global Internet backbone is one of the few that is IPv6-native and does not rely on internal tunnels for its IPv6 connectivity. First deployed on Hurricanes Internet backbone in 2001, IPv6 is offered as a core service and every customer is provided IPv6 connectivity – as well as classic IPv4 connectivity. Hurricane Electric connects to more than 1,200 associated IPv6 backbones.
