Singapore Internet Data Center

Signetique’s state-of-the-art data center is located at Science Park and is ISO 9001 certified. It is designed to provide an environment necessary to keep your servers running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Data Center has the following protection systems in place to ensure maximum operation regardless of the disruption:

Power
The Data Center power system is made up of:

	Commercial Utility Underground Conduits
	N+1 Redundant UPS System
	45 minutes of backup time
	Single 800 Amps incoming power supply switch board
	Dual-feed secondary switchboard and critical load distribution boards
	Backup Diesel Generator

Security
Security is paramount to all our customers. Hence, the Data Center and network has been
designed with that in mind. It provides a comprehensive security system that includes:

	Visitation controls
	Visitation logging
	Biometric palm scanner access
	Dedicated ethernet system
	Network monitoring
	Site security guard.

All visitors to the Data Center are identified against a CUSTOMER-defined access control list.
Each visitor is also issued a badge and his entry and exit to the center is logged. Visitors in
the Data Center are monitored from an open glass view panel.

Each server housed in the Data Center is connected via a dedicated ethernet switch rather
than Hubs. This arrangement protects the confidentiality of traffic within our network and
ensures no other server housed on our network can tap the data flowing through our network.

Environment

	Raised Flooring
	Environmental management systems
	Down throw precision air-conditioning systems
	Individual Rack Level Circuit Breaker

The Data Center is equipped with multiple units of conditioning units, a complete FM-200 fire suppression system, a complete smoke detection system and alarm system. Each rack is also
earth-grounded and has its own individual circuit breaker for that extra redundancy.

Internal Infrastructure

The Data Center is 100 percent powered by state of the art Cisco switches and routers. Each of our CUSTOMERs’ servers plugs directly into our Cisco Catalyst 5509 switches and Cisco 7709 Routers. These high end mission-critical equipment will ensure that data gets in and out of our CUSTOMERs' servers at the fastest possible speed. We plug each server into our core switches instead of secondary switches or hubs. This is because in a hub environment, only one computer plugged into it can make use of the network at any one time whereas in a switched environment, every server has a dedicated connection and can at the same time. This results in more data being able to travel through a switch at any one time. In addition, because each computer has its own dedicated connection via a switch, it makes hacking and snooping of sensitive data a little more difficult.
