New Data Centre
Frankfurt am Main
Opening – June 2020
Digital expansion needs space to develop. To provide the necessary scope for development, Telehouse is adding a fifth data centre to its company campus.
The new data centre is located in the heart of Frankfurt, the digital hub of continental Europe with the highest density of network and service providers, and offers direct connections to the fibre optic ring and DE-CIX Internet exchange. The new facility will supply about 2,200 sqm of high-availability colocation space from March 2020. Services include single racks and dedicated data centre space as well as further services.
The data centre has 3.6 megawatts of IT capacity and 4.5 megawatts of total capacity. Using 100% green energy and with a PUE value of less than 1.25, it delivers top ratings for sustainability and energy efficiency.
The new premises are centrally located, extremely convenient to reach by public transport and just a few minutes from the motorway and airport. And the Telehouse Campus offers plenty of space for further expansion, opening the door to future growth.
