Cutting-Edge Connectivity: Equinix LA 1 IBX Facility
Description
Valued at $31 million, this project was completed in one phase and comprises approximately 51,000 SF of colocation space, along with an additional 10,000 SF designated for storage. The colocation space is equipped with 530 cabinets and was designed with stand-alone mechanical and electrical systems, interconnected to the existing 6th-floor collocation where necessary for reliability or indicated in the initial single line and flow diagrams.
