Redbus has a 100% guaranteed power back up, climate control,
sophisticated security measures meaning Alpha-Networks and our
customers machine are in the best environment and are very secure.
Physical Security |
When it comes to security, we refuse to compromise. BSQ ( Blue Square ) features totally comprehensive 24/7 security to keep your equipment 100% safe. This means our customers have the protection of security barriers, 24x7x365 monitoring by on-site personnel to include visual verification of all persons entering the building, CCTV video camera surveillance and a security breach alarm provides the control room with information.
Access |
Access to the buildings, data floors and individual area’s are
via individually programmed Proximity Access Cards (PAC), usage
of the PAC is logged centrally by time and date. The cards cannot
be used by anyone else, whenever you swipe your card tag over
the sensors to gain access to the building, your digital photograph
will be displayed on our security systems which are continuously
monitored by our on-site technicians. The technicians will then
verify the information and only when satisfied, allow access.
Power |
Our policy guarantees all our customers a redundant high-capacity, stable and reliable power supply, with easy scalable expansion in the future. A minimum of 1Kw per square metre secure power is available, with power isolated between customer and maintained indefinitely, plus on-site generation which can deal with both customer and plant load whilst recharging the UPS.
All our facilities are built to at least an N+1 standard; put simply, this means that if two generators are required to provide non-stop power, then there’ll be three installed. So rather than guaranteeing 99.99% availability, the guarantee is 100%.
Fire Detection/Suppression |
Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus (VESDA) is installed in every facility. These
highly sensitive aspirating smoke detectors are linked to the Building Management system which is monitored continually from a network operations centre, provide very early detection to help avoid fire, loss and business disruption. This is coupled with a gas based fire retardant that is environmentally friendly, to put out fires instantly, without damaging equipment.
Air Conditioning |
To ensure optimum performance, all data floors are maintained at a constant 21°C ± 2°C and relative humidity is kept at 50% ± 10%. Both are continually monitored via the BMS.
Building Management System (BMS) |
All BSQ facilities operate computerised building management systems that monitor and remotely operate sensors covering electrical, mechanical, fire detection and leak detection systems.
Intelligent Hands|
Alpha-Networks use BSQ's "Intelligent Hands" technicians
who are available 24x7x365 to enable rapid deployment of your
kit, or help you sort out anything from a simple tape rotation
to a complex problem affecting hardware or software from all
major vendors. Alpha-Networks has 60 minutes intelligent service
every day. This can be extendable whenever necessary for a nominal
fee.
