I would agree here cross connects. We pay 15x more in cross connects per month then we do in just the space/power. We actually pulled out of a colo once our contract came to terms with one of the large colo providers because of the extortion cross connect fees. It's an issue when a cross connect within the same room cost more then the loop going 100 miles away. I sometimes question if the colo providers even understand our industry. Sadly enough it was cheaper to move all that colo into an AT&T CO/Tandem then to stay put in the colo space. Just my 2 cents.

As others have said, the cab, and even power, is somewhat reasonable. But the cross connects kill the whole thing. -Chris On Thu, Jan 17, 2013 at 10:55 AM, PC <paul4...@gmail.com> wrote: > My experience has been that the monthly rack rental fee will be a > comparative bargain to basic power and a couple in-building cross >connects, > which will often more than double the cost.
