We build large data center complexes to extract value from economies of scale. We can spread the cost of key data centers assets across a larger square footage than any one enterprise data center. In fact, the scale of our operation is the primary reason that our customers choose our data center. We provide 24/7/365 operations for a fraction of the cost of "do it yourself.”
What is conditioned power?
Conditioned power refers to the “clean” power that i/o delivers to its colocation and outsourced data center customers. To condition the power, i/o Data Centers builds sites with significant capabilities from the electric power utility. This is a most critical endeavor because with redundant feeds we exceed 99% reliability from of our street power. In the event of a utility failure, we have standby diesel generators on the ready which automatically activate and provide the full load. We keep approximately 24 hours of fuel on hand and have significant fuel supply diversity.
This reliable power stream is routed through an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) which contains a transformer and batteries. The UPS smoothes over any sags or spikes in the power supply, and a lot of other things. Power is distributed to the data center floor via Power Distribution Units (PDU). i/o Data Centers uses Liebert and MGE power equipment.
What is High Density Colocation?
High density colocation refers to i/o Data Centers' cabinet colocation and cage
colocation services which, depending on location, can support from 50 to 200 watts per foot.
