POWER & COOLING
With the rapidly increasing growth in data center power consumption, our customers look to us to provide expertise and insight regarding all aspects of power delivery and management.
We have some of the world’s foremost experts on power management engineering our data centers. Our engineers have designed our power systems with built-in redundancy, full Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems with up to N+1 levels or greater, and backup generator systems in the event of a local utility failure. In addition, our teams will work with our customers to configure data center installations to accommodate specific high-power requirements.
This includes leveraging our precision HVAC systems to cool the most demanding high-power deployments. The HVAC system provides appropriate airflow, temperature, and humidity to provide optimum conditions for equipment operation and to minimize downtime due to equipment failure.
We sell AC and DC power in all regions; AC circuit voltage varies by region.
