In today’s broadband environment, local and regional ISPs face growing demand for reliable, scalable, and cost-efficient infrastructure. Co-location with NBBC.coop offers more than just rack space — it provides a strategic foundation for growth, collaboration, and long-term success.
1. Shared Infrastructure, Lower Costs
As a cooperative, NBBC brings members together to share physical infrastructure, utilities, and facility overhead. Instead of each ISP building and maintaining their own facilities, members can pool resources, significantly reducing costs while still accessing enterprise-grade infrastructure. This means lower capital expenditures and predictable operating expenses.
2. Enhanced Reliability and Uptime
NBBC facilities are designed with redundancy in mind. From backup power and environmental controls to robust fiber connectivity, co-locating ensures your network services remain stable and available. For rural and regional ISPs, this level of reliability is often unattainable without substantial investment — NBBC makes it attainable through cooperation.
3. Access to a Growing Ecosystem
Co-locating with NBBC doesn’t just mean space in a data center — it means becoming part of a community. You’re directly connected to other ISPs, regional networks, and strategic partners within the cooperative. This creates opportunities for shared transit, peering, and partnerships that strengthen your service offerings and improve customer experience.
4. Scalable Connectivity Options
Whether you’re a small WISP or a growing regional provider, NBBC offers scalable rack space, power, and bandwidth options. You can start with what you need today and scale as your network grows, without the risk and expense of building new facilities from scratch.
5. Keep Traffic Local, Improve Performance
By co-locating with NBBC, ISPs can keep local traffic local. Instead of routing traffic through distant hubs, members benefit from lower latency, better performance, and reduced transit costs. This translates to faster service for customers and less strain on expensive upstream bandwidth.
6. Community-Driven Support
Unlike for-profit data centers, NBBC operates as a cooperative. Decisions are driven by members, not outside investors. This ensures transparency, fair pricing, and a focus on community benefits rather than short-term profit. When you co-locate with NBBC, you’re investing in a sustainable model that supports the broader broadband ecosystem.
Final Thoughts
Co-location with NBBC.coop isn’t just about where you put your equipment — it’s about joining a community built on collaboration, cost-savings, and mutual growth. By leveraging shared infrastructure and collective buying power, ISPs of all sizes can access the reliability and scalability they need to compete in today’s broadband market.
