CxP Southeast Regional Data Center Starts Selling Space

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Oct. 14, 2013 - PRLog -- JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- CxP, LLC is pre-selling data and office space in its new, 121,000-square-foot Southeast Regional colocation center in Jacksonville, Fla.

Office space is scheduled to be completed by early December and the data center is to go live by February. CxP purchased the former Wachovia data center in June for $5.25 million and is investing another $5 million in renovations.

“We are positioned to drive businesses to Jacksonville by giving them an alternative to larger markets for data centers,” CxP CEO Robert Lupo said. “We offer them lower rates for data and office space for their employees to work out of.”

CxP also is offering new customers three free months of data hosting for a limited time. “We’re trying to offset their costs for moving out of another data center,” Lupo said.

CxP’s new facility will double the total capacity of Jacksonville’s data centers.

Its 50,000 square feet of data space could host customers with just a few servers as well as enterprises with hundreds of servers. With 60,000 square feet of office space, the facility also could accommodate 250 to 300 employees of customers.

The project resembles facilities in larger Southeast markets for data centers, like Atlanta and Raleigh-Durham, N.C., Lupo said. “We can provide a Tier 3 experience in Jacksonville for less money than you can in an Atlanta type of market.”

CxP’s data center is within hundreds of yards of the main fiber-optic lines that serve Florida, making it an attractive location for companies planning for disaster recovery and business continuity, Lupo said. “We can be a nice out-of-region data center for the Gulf Coast area as well as for the East Coast, north of Savannah.”

CxP is offering tours of the new center as renovations continue. DSA Encore is designing the improvements and Haskell is the project manager.
