A privately owned site in the low hills of Berkeley (map)(photos)

The Oxford site's primary purpose is to bridge the Backbone to the more general Internet.

Backbone

Dish to Wolfback

  • Radio: airFiber 5XHD
  • Antenna: UISP 30 dBi dish
  • Frequency: -
  • Bandwidth: 20 MHz
  • Location: 37.888, -122.268
  • Altitude: -
  • Bearing: 259°

Transit Information

This site provides a peering point between the Backbone and the more general Internet.

Software

The Backbone network is peered using BGP running on Mikrotik CHR. We accept a full table for both IPv4 and IPv6.

Transits

Peering operates over Wireguard tunnels to two transit points:

Hardware

The Mikrotik routing software runs on a redundant Ryzen cluster running Proxmox and Ceph.

Connections

The site primary connection to its peers is over 2Gb/s fiber. Backup connectivity is provided by Starlink.

Power

The site has limited battery backup plus a backup generator to handle longer outages.
