Meet Me Rooms in Data Centers

The Benefits of Meet Me Rooms in Data Centers
Some data centers house Meet-Me-Rooms(MMR) within their facility. These MMRs allows telecommunication carriers and network service providers to cross connect their networks. They can then exchange data with other major carriers housed within the same facility. These rooms act as gateways to the Internet,making it possible to transmit information around the world to individual computers.
MMRs allow quick, reliable, and cost-effective connections between the buildings’ tenants. Voice circuits, data circuits, and Internet protocol services are all provided across connections in the facility. An MMR allows both telecommunication carriers and data center users to connect to each other and exchange information, without local loop fees.
A large MMR in a data center will provide access to a number of major carriers within a given area. Users of MMR’s often include Internet Service Providers (ISP’s), local exchange companies, cable companies and e-commerce companies.
The Difference between an MMR and a Carrier Neutral Data Center
An MMR is a small space, usually located within a data center facility. Although the terminology is sometimes ambiguous, there are a few key differences between the two categories. A few of the differences are set out in detail below:
- 1. Ownership
A carrier-neutral data center is owned by a private operator. MMRs are not stand-alone facilities. They are instead managed under contract by a separate firm.
- 2. Size
Meet-Me Rooms tend to be smaller than data centers. Originally, fibers ran from a suite to connect via patch panels in the MMR. Over time, they have grown in size and now resemble small data centers. They now also include features such as racks and cages.
- 3. Customers
Clients of MMR’s are the operators of large networks, such as ISPs. Data center clients include operators of large networks, but they also include enterprises and smaller network operators.
- 4. Services
MMRs offer basic services and maintain their own cross connects, power and cooling systems. Along with these services, carrier neutral Houston data centers also offer managed services and hosting. Larger data centers try to keep sales at a minimum of 5-10 racks per client, whereas an MMR sells quarter or half racks due to their smaller capacity.
- 5. Interconnection
A Meet-Me Room’s primary purpose is to connect only its tenants. Carrier-neutral centers offer a more varied range of connection services. MMRs permit any user within the facility to interconnect, even if they are not located inside the MMR. On the other hand, data centers often allow only tenants of the data center itself to interconnect.
The Benefits of MMR’s for data center clients
For a data center user, the meet-me-room provides access to the carrier’s Internet or phone services without restrictions on bandwidth or the need to invest in a point of presence (POP). To interconnect, the user simply installs a patch from their cage or suite and connects with the MMR. A customer can use multiplex equipment to create a single connection point between the MMR and their suite in the facility.
Multiplexing equipment breaks out the connection, allowing for private connections to several other tenants in the MMR. These private and direct connections offer unequalled levels of security and speed. An Internet Exchange Point (IEP) can also be provided in an MMR, allowing many organizations to interchange traffic without numerous separate physical interconnections.

Five Fantastic Travel Apps
9 months ago
by Guest Author
in Uncategorized
Travel has gotten more and more annoying, and it seems like we have to hurry to the airport so many hours in advance of our flights to wait forever at our gate. A slew of travel apps are available to make the whole ordeal a little more bearable. I use all of these apps, but what I really need is a sherpa. One who will haul the enormous diaper bag and stroller, while dressed like a friendly clown to entertain my toddler, and will hand out lollipops and balloon animals to travellers we annoy.
Tripit – Free for iPhone and Android
Called “the world’s easiest way to organize your travel plans”, this app allows users to simply consolidate all their travel itineraries and sync with their calendar. It is so easy to use. All you have to do is forward all of your confirmation emails to plans@tripit.com, and they are added to your account. You can add details or notes, share with friends or family. Search for restaurants, businesses, and attractions to add to your itinerary. Weather forecasts are available, as well as maps. You can upgrade to an ad-free version for $3.99
Gate Guru – $2 for iPhone and Android
A terrific app to help travellers find restaurants, shops and services at the airport. Includes information on over 115 airports. It also allows users to review and rate businesses, upload photos, as well as update the current wait times at security checkpoints. Save your favorite places, check in to Facebook, and view your Tripit folders from within the app.
FlightTrack – $4.99 for iPhone and Android
This app tracks domestic and international flights, covering more than 5000 airports and 1400 airlines in real time. Stay on top of flight status and gate info. The flight is shown on a map with a countdown to landing time. Upgrade to FlightTrack Pro to import data from Tripit.
XE Currency Converter – Free for iPhone and Android
I’ve been using their website for years so I was happy to see that they had a mobile app. Use it to convert every world currency and even see the prices of precious metals. It’s an important tool for travelling because it removes a possible point of contention. Rates in stores and money exchange kiosks will never be the same as the bank rates you are shown, but it gives you a clear picture of how badly you’re being hosed.
Google Translate – Free for iPhone and Android
I think this one is my favorite. I learned french at a young age, studied German and Japanese in University and became fluent in Spanish while living in Mexico and Central America. I can get by with bits of language I pick up, and my sunny disposition, wherever I go, but to have a way to communicate in 64 languages is a dream come true. When I travelled to the Czech Republic several years ago, I was grateful that many people spoke German and English, because there wasn’t a single sound in their language that was familiar to me. I would have loved to have had this technology to have a conversation with the wife of my host with whom I didn’t share a language in common.
