All equipment is company owned and none of it is rented. We buy straight from Internap and not a reseller.

We have a little bit more on our network here;

knox, we primarily use InterNAP facilities and bandwidth, providing our own hardware and other equipment to fill the bare cabinets.

So you colocate in those internap facilities and do you manage your own network, with their bandwidth? buying from a DC is reseller bandwidth?

Yes we colocate our own servers with Internap. We do manage our own network, as much as we can. Buying from a data center is usually not reseller bandwidth. Buying from a company which buys bandwidth from Internap is a reseller.

knox, the way that each location is specifically set up differs, but we have at least one NFO-owned switching layer between us and InterNAP-owned switches. We do not have any other company's hardware in any of our cabinets or between us and InterNAP. We purchase from InterNAP directly and do not go through a reseller; we've historically been one of their larger customers.

If you need more information on a certain location, contact us directly, and also let us know the product that you are interested in so that we can fill you in on any other information that you might need.
