About MKE1

Mac Mini Vault is a part of CyberLynk, a data center company in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We offer Mac data center services out of CyberLynk’s MKE1 facility, which has three data center build-outs with plenty of room to grow. Our engineers are experienced with macOS and Mac hardware, along with Windows, Linux, Fortigate, and Cisco technologies. Because CyberLynk owns and manages MKE1, we have the flexibility to build our specially engineered Mac mini colocation cabinets for high-density Mac mini hosting.
