Beanfield & York Heritage Properties
York Heritage Properties understands that information technology
and digital communications are mission critical to its customers
and, that in today’s wired world, network security,
broadband capacity and Internet connectivity can mean the
difference between success and irrelevance.
According to the many businesses in Liberty Village that use its services,
Beanfield Technologies Inc., a Toronto Carpet Factory business,
is providing unprecedented IT savings and security to its
customers.
Located on the 5th floor of the historic Toronto Carpet Factory, Beanfield
Technologies serves as a high capacity, building-centric
Internet Service Provider and co-location center with a fibre
optic network running throughout the Liberty Village community.
For Carpet Factory and York Liberty-based businesses, Beanfield’s co-location
centre boasts uninterruptible power, multiple pathways to
the Internet, enormous bandwidth and a secure environment
to house their servers.
More than just enhanced IT performance, Beanfield’s Carpet Factory
and York Liberty customers also report tremendous cost savings.
For many companies information technology and communications-related
expenses exceed occupancy costs. Beanfield customers in Liberty
Village face no setup fee, and the monthly service charges
are said to be one-tenth to one-half the rate of traditional
buildings in Toronto.
This saves the average customer thousands of dollars annually and is due
to the fibre optic ring Beanfield established around Liberty
Village with support from York Heritage Properties.
The ring connects
independent fibre cable to Beanfield’s own network
which includes its Carpet Factory-based co-location centre.
Beanfield’s proprietary fibre network is augmented
by separate OC3, OC12 and Gigabit Ethernet connections into
upstream carriers such as MCI, Bell Nexxia, Group Telecom,
and a Gigabit Ethernet link into the Toronto Internet Exchange
with direct links to Q9, Peer 1, Shaw/Bigpipe, Primus, Rogers,
Cogeco, Videotron and others.
Beanfield’s co-location centre provides
significant security,
significant savings
and a significant edge to its customers in the Toronto Carpet
Factory and
York Liberty Buildings.
