Atlantic Broadband and Miami Data Vault Partner to Deliver
Unparalleled Business Services to Global and Local Customers
MIAMIFebruary 9, 2015 Atlantic Broadband, an innovative provider of Internet, Phone and
TV services to both businesses and residents in the greater Miami area, with additional
operations in Western Pennsylvania, Maryland/Delaware, and Aiken, S.C., today announced a
partnership with Miami Data Vault (MDV), Miami’s first and most secure data center and
colocation facility. The partnership enables Miami Data Vault customers to take advantage of
Atlantic Broadband’s suite of Business Service offerings, and further solidifies Atlantic
Broadband as a premier provider of communication solutions in the rapidly growing South
Florida sector.
The news comes as Atlantic Broadband continues to make significant investments to enhance
its network and service portfolio to exceed the requirements of today’s sophisticated
enterprises. For example, the company recently launched an enhanced Metro Ethernet service
that scales up to 10 Gigabits per second. In addition, earlier this year, Atlantic Broadband
brought a unique PRI and SIP trunking offering, called Flex Trunk to its customers
companywide. The partnership also opens Atlantic Broadband’s all-fiber access network to
Miami Data Vault customers.
As part of the partnership, Miami Data Vault will add Atlantic Broadband to its carrier-neutral
offering. Miami Data Vault is a locally owned and operated data service facility that serves as a
connectivity hub for numerous clients across all business sectors. Its state-of-the-art Category 5
rated structure built outside of the 500 year flood plain, offers clients the best possible storm and
flood protection, and is backed up by redundant emergency generators and UPS systems that
are designed to withstand natural, technological and human disasters.
“We couldn’t be more excited to be partnering with Miami Data Vault to deliver area businesses
with solutions that meet their growing needs,” said David Keefe, Atlantic Broadband’s Senior
Vice President and General Manager, Florida. With our focus on being a true business partner
to our customers, we look forward to delivering Miami Data Vault’s customers with unmatched
responsiveness and value.”
“The need for reliable infrastructure becomes even more critical as more organizations rely on
network connectivity to support and protect daily operations of a business, said Miami Data
Vault Sales Director Scott Haugland. We are pleased to welcome Atlantic Broadband into our
facility. The company’s service offering is an excellent addition and we look forward to providing
an environment that facilitates their continued expansion.”
