01 Between the sites

Running in both

Customers who keep a second copy of anything usually want it somewhere a single event cannot reach. Our two buildings are 8.8 miles apart by the shorter fiber route, on opposite sides of the Hackensack River, served by different utility substations, and at different elevations. They are close enough for synchronous replication and far enough apart that the same burst water main, transformer fire or road closure will not take out both.

Schematic of SEC1, NWK1 and the routes between them SEC1 in Secaucus lies east of the Hackensack River, about four miles west of Midtown Manhattan across the Hudson. NWK1 lies on the west shore of Newark Bay beside Port Newark. Route A runs 8.8 miles between them on the east side of the river; route B runs 12.2 miles on the west side. The two routes share no trench.
