NEW YORK, NEW YORK, June 17, 1999 – Globix Corporation

Clara Internet Data Center is now fully operational and serving customers.
Located in the San Francisco Bay area, the new facility enhances the Company’s
capacity to provide business customers with sophisticated Internet and Internet-based

new facility online, Globix is well positioned to provide large
and mid-sized West Coast businesses with sophisticated, end-to-end
Internet solutions, 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year."
The 61,000 square-foot Santa Clara facility is designed specifically

Internet Data Center and an entire floor of corporate training classrooms,
seminar space and customer offices. The Internet Data Center alone contains
24,000 square feet of space for servers of co-location and Web hosting
customers. Built as a "next generation" Internet Data Center,
it features a temperature-controlled environment, FM200 dry fire-suppression
systems, Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems, back-up diesel generators,

The Santa Clara Internet Data Center is served by Globix
Corporation’s fully redundant, fiber-optic, OC-3 (155 Mbps)
