No you don’t. It’s a broom cupboard that you put your router in when you first set your office up.
Then you added a switch, maybe a firewall. Then maybe a server or two. Then you noticed it was getting mighty warm in that cupboard, so you bought an air conditioning unit from Viking, took the brooms and the mops out of the cupboard, and kept the air conditioner on 24/7. This created problems in itself of course, because domestic air conditioners have a huge exhaust hose that disperses hot air, so you need to get rid of that hot air somehow.

ChunkyChips are pleased to announce a further drop in Leased Line pricing this week, with standard Leased Line pricing for 100Mb 1:1 Fibre Leased Lines now dropping below £500 in metro areas.
Commented Dan Slay, Technical Guru for ChunkyChips, “This pricing breakthrough is typical of our approach to business: we recognised a requirement from our customers for cost-effective, business-class leased lines and were the first to jump on the challenge and make this happen. We have been negotiating with our Wholesale Partners to deliver truly groundbreaking pricing. Finally we are able to offer Fibre Leased Lines with free install and from under £500 per month as our standard offering”.
