To meet the increasing demand for broadband and ultra-low-latency 5G services, carriers must implement edge computing innovations. Our solution architecture employs both physical proximity and cutting-edge connectivity to increase bandwidth while reducing transport and backhaul costs. This approach in turn enables emergent technologies like autonomous vehicles, robotics and assisted surgery and augmented/virtual reality applications.
Vertical Bridge will provide site acquisition services related to identifying, qualifying and securing suitable locations for the deployment of edge micro data centers per its clients’ network architecture requirements. As part of its site acquisition process, VB will handle ground lease negotiations and execution with the land or property owner, title, environmental and lease drawings and exhibit activities.
Vertical Bridge will conduct all regulatory compliance due diligence including Phase I, NEPA, surveys, zoning and permitting tasks, site construction design and drawings, and construction management, including power and fiber delivery to the site. VB will provide a fenced, graded utility-ready site with all necessary conduits and pads already in place so that its edge micro data center clients will only have to deliver their shelter and equipment to the site and easily install, connect and turn on. VB will manage the ongoing maintenance of the site compound, access road and other RE maintenance related requirements.
As part of our overall development process which includes all site acquisition and construction tasks, VB performs all necessary and required tasks as per the local, state, and federal regulations which include environmental (Phase I), NEPA, zoning, permitting, closeout packages and COO (Certificate of Occupancy).
Edge Computing locations should be where the network architecture requires it: near where the data is generated, collected and analyzed, and not necessarily at the base of telecom sites. Vertical Bridge has partnered with EdgePresence — among other leading providers of distributed enterprise-class data center, cloud and interconnection services — to deploy edge data centers at existing telecom sites as well as at non-telecom locations. Our flexibility enables us to meet the growing need for Edge to Suit™ deployments as the shift from content delivery to wireless grows, achieving the ultra-low latency and higher bandwidth requirements of the new 5G SA networks.
