Our customers use our services to operate and maintain computer equipment in

WHAT WE OFFER OUR CUSTOMERS
We provide our customers with a range of Internet-based services, including
network infrastructure and expertise to build, maintain, operate and support
Internet-based operations. Our primary services include:
Internet Web Hosting and Co-Location
We currently operate Internet data centers in New York City, New York;
Atlanta,
Georgia; Santa Clara, California; and London, England. Our Internet data
centers
include electrical infrastructure, precision environmental control systems,
fire
suppression systems and comprehensive security systems.
We offer co-location solutions for customers who choose to own and maintain
their own servers, but require the physically secure, climate-controlled
environment provided by our Internet data centers and connectivity to our
network. We offer web hosting services in a dedicated server environment.
This
service includes providing hardware, software, bandwidth and services to
meet
customer-specific needs.
Managed Services
We provide managed system and network services to our web hosting and
co-location
customers. Such services include a wide variety of maintenance,
administration
and problem resolution services for many popular operating systems, Internet
network devices, software security solutions and web based applications.
Network Services and Internet Access
We provide access to our network to our hosting and co-location customers
located inside of our Internet Data Centers as well as Internet access
services
which provide businesses with high-speed continuous access to the Internet
from
their own premises. In addition, we provide other services, such as domain
name
registration, local loop provisioning, Internet address assignment, router
configuration, e-mail configuration and management and technical consulting
services.
Our network infrastructure is designed for high availability and low
latency,
and utilizes a single autonomous system number. As a result, traffic is
carried
on a network controlled by our Company to the greatest extent possible and
therefore does not suffer from the congestion or high latency of public
networks.
The domestic Globix backbone is a Packet over Synchronous Optical Network,
or
SONET, which provides a mechanism for using the speed and efficient
management
capabilities of SONET for data transport. Essentially, it provides a method
for
carrying data packets in SONET frames that will operate at speeds up to
OC-48
(2.4Gbs). The OC-48 Globix domestic backbone connects to our data centers
and to
our backbone points of presence in Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle and
Washington, D.C.
Our European backbone is a Packet over SONET currently connecting London,
Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Paris. The domestic and European networks are
connected
by two OC-3 (155Mbps) transatlantic crossings.
Our U.S. and European network sections interconnect to numerous network
access
points, commercial Internet exchanges and other Internet, application and
network service providers.
Our network operations are directed from our 139 Centre Street data center
in
New York City, which is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Network
administrators located in our operations center monitor our network
infrastructure. Our network administrators are able to identify and correct
network problems either themselves or by dispatching system engineers
located at
our customer support centers.
