Meet-Me Rooms.
The Westin Building's Copper and Fiber Meet-Me Rooms (MMRs) are access controlled, managed facilities where buyers and sellers of Broadband networks offer interconnectivity to their backbones and diverse services. The MMRs are state of the art areas centrally located within the building, facilitating easy access to our new and existing high-rise and low-rise cable risers. The MMRs allow us to cross connects with multiple Internet Service Providers or network carriers. It is also allow us to exchange  bandwidth with multiple ISP. The interconnection of carriers to other networks in a central location is a highly efficient and expanding a network's reach.

Power.
Our data center has the multiple layer of power backup protection. The Multiple layers of reliability consisting of 2N redundant industrial capacity power distribution systems, Three Grid power system from the Seattle City Light, N+1 redundancy, diesel backup generators and UPS (uninterruptible power supplies). In some cases if the data center has the power spikes, power drops or power failure, UPS units will kick in instantly and then switch to emergency backup power. Therefore, there is no interruption in the flow of electricity to computers. The redundant power in our facilities enable your equipment to run continuously, even in the event of a major outage.

Climate Control.
Our datacenter is equipped with a superior monitored climate control cooling system that ensures climate temperatures do not affect computing power. We use the Air Conditioning (HVAC) units maintain a climate of 67 degrees (+/- 5). The Humidity 30-60% is also maintained at optimal level to keep static electricity level to its minimum.

Fire, Life and Safety.
The Westin Building Telecommunications Facilities offer pre-action dry pipe sprinkler system with computer and telecommunications rated smoke and heat detection systems. FM 200 fire suppression systems are installed in some caged areas.

Security.
On-site physical  security offers 24x7 staffed checkpoints, Alarm/Key Monitoring, keycard access is required to all secured areas of the building, Biometric scan and card key required for access to data center, and all activity in/out of the building is recorded. Continuous video recording of all entrances, corridors, and data facilities is provided by closed-circuit cameras. All visitors to our data center must be escorted by an RisingNet staff.
