What are the Oplink.net Datacenter Specs?
- For over 16 years the Oplink.net primary datacenter was in Houston’s Level3 facility. In the summer of 2021 we moved out of Level3 and into TRG Datacenters in Spring, TX.
Power DesignDual backup power generators are located inside the building, enclosed and protected from weather. During Winter Storm Uri, a spare fuel truck was on-site, and technical staff were on duty around the clock to monitor and maintain generator performance. The datacenter remained on generator power for several days after power was restored to ensure any additional ERCOT power grid failures had no effect on clients. As a result, there was no downtime.
