Hurricane Electric’s global IP network build-out has finally added a node in America’s 50th state. They have opened a PoP in the Hawaiian capital of Honolulu, setting up shop in the DRFortress facility at 337 Koapaka. Multiple submarine cables stop over in Hawaii on their way across the Pacific, and interconnection at such nexus points has been a growing trend lately.
Colo Atl says that one of its customers has installed another 96 fiber strands into its meet me room at 55 Marietta. Cyber Wurx, LLC has been working with Colo Atl since 2004 and will be using the additional fiber connectivity to add more critical networking opportunities for its customer base. Also part of the plan is to become a member of the Southeast Network Access Point.
