7579 W. 103rd Ave., Westminster, Colo.<\/p><\/div>\n

Zayo Group Holdings Inc. acquired a colocation facility located in Westminster, Colo.\u00a0The company’s infrastructure\u00a0footprint\u00a0now includes four data centers and\u00a0over 4,000 fiber route miles in the state. Last year, Zayo expanded its\u00a0Texas data center<\/a> portfolio\u00a0with the purchase of Clearwater International, a colocation and cloud\u00a0infrastructure company.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The data center, located at 7579 W. 103rd\u00a0Ave.,\u00a0will be directly linked to\u00a0the one\u00a0in downtown Denver at 1500 Champa St., also part of the company’s portfolio. zColo\u2014a Zayo wholly owned subsidiary\u2014will manage the 29,500-square-foot\u00a0colocation facility sitting on approximately 2.3 acres of land. The asset\u00a0comprises\u00a010,000 square feet of raised floor space, 12,000 square feet dedicated to infrastructure and support, as well as 7,500 square feet of disaster recovery office space.<\/p>\n

Infrastructure and connectivity<\/h2>\n

The carrier-neutral colocation facility has two diversely fed redundant fiber feeds. It offers 450 kW of power, expandable to 1,125 kW in critical load. A 1 MW diesel generator is available for backup in case of power failure, with several other redundancy options in place. Fire protection includes 100 percent pre-action dry pipe sprinkler systems, VESDA fire protection and floor detectors for leaks and smoke. Its cooling infrastructure is comprised of two 500-ton cooling towers and two 200-ton centrifugal chillers. Security includes a guard station and man-trap at the main entrance, as well as card-key access and all-round surveillance.<\/p>\n

The U.S. 36 Denver-Boulder corridor is Colorado’s emergent tech sector, with some of the industry’s leading names\u2014IBM, Level Three Communications, Oracle, Ball Corp.\u2014calling it home. Zayo’s new data center benefits from proximity to the Denver-Boulder Turnpike, with\u00a0downtown Denver only 20 minutes away.\u00a0 TJ Karklins, senior vice president of Zayo’s zColo business segment, said in a prepared statement that “there are limited Tier III equivalent data centers in Northwest Denver, this location is strategic and will provide excellent access to our extensive fiber network.<\/em>“<\/p>\n
