Description

While many governments and businesses have begun the easing or lifting of restrictions relating to COVID-19, please be advised that colocation services in our Equinix-based facilities will be subject to continued protective measures for the health and safety of onsite technicians, employees, and yourself while attending. Equinix is now requiring that all visitors to their facilities wear a face covering while on-site. While some facilities may be able to provide you with a non-medical-grade mask where supplies allow, Equinix has strongly advised that you come prepared to prevent any delays in accessing your colocation service. We’ll continue to notify you of any changes to Equinix access procedures as information is made available. Thank you.
