Australian Co-Lo

Looking for recommendations for carrier neutral co-lo facility for Melbourne
Australia. Our searches so far seem to turn up sites either on Telstra or
Optus affiliated co-lo facilities. We need to be in a carrier neutral space
with access to any of the major providers.

Searching for co-lo space in Australia from Toronto is somewhat challenging.
Websites make lots of claims that can't be validated without going and
seeing the place.

If it doesn't need to be Melbourne, there is a good selection in Sydney.

The best being Equinix and Globalswitch

In addition to those there's the PIPE and AAPT

Both are ISP's, but have extensive cross connections.

We currently use AAPT (10+ racks in Richmond), and I've previously used
Global Center and been happy with both.

AAPT are pretty far from being carrier neutral these days....
