New cables to be laid to transport large quantities of power to the data center.

EvoSwitch, a carrier-neutral data center that operates CO2-neutral, today announced that it has agreed with network manager Continuon to increase the power capacity for its data centre from 10 MVA to 20 MVA. The company states that the new cabling will be laid up to the building to transport the large quantities of power to the data center.

The company articulated that it has been working with a power capacity of 10 MVA since the data center's opening in April 2007. This is ample for the data center's current requirements. At present, 2000 out of the available 9000 m2 are ready to accommodate customer equipment. The also states that the second phase will be completed in the second quarter of 2008, resulting in a total available surface of 4000 m2. Once all phases are complete, a total surface of 9000 m2 will be filled with customer equipment.
