Campus Features

Power

Power

Vantage’s Berlin data center campus provides N+1 redundancy across all systems. An on-campus substation and state-of-the-art electrical equipment are the foundation for maximum efficiency and reliability, ultimately ensuring customer uptime and reliability thanks to the support from a world-class in-house operations team.

  • N+1 substation at 110KV on campus
  • Power provided by the E.DIS Group, based in Fürstenwalde / Spree, the region’s leading energy provider
  • Multiple, diverse power feeds supporting the campus
  • 480V electrical configuration
  • All systems 100% concurrently maintainable

Cooling

Cooling

Vantage’s Berlin campus uses a highly efficient closed-loop chilled water system generated through air-cooled chillers. An integrated economizer capability allows reduced compressor energy based on outside ambient temperature–when weather is favorable, cooling becomes more sustainable and less resource intensive.

  • N+1 overall, N+2 component-level redundancy across mechanical systems
  • Computer Room Air Handling (CRAH) units located in two galleries on opposite sides of each data module allow for highly efficient airflow distribution
  • Closed-loop chilled water system with air-side economizers
  • Water Utilization Efficiency (WUE) is near zero (liters/kW/hr) using the latest cooling design

Connectivity

Connectivity

Fiber pathways into the Vantage Berlin campus are multiple and diverse, with access to both dark and lit fiber. The campus is carrier neutral, giving customers the flexibility to manage their own network.

  • Two Meet-Me-Rooms (MMRs) for each data center on campus, allowing for diverse paths and multiple connectivity options
  • Four points-of-entry (POEs) for the campus ensuring maximum path diversity for inbound carriers
  • Diverse fiber pathways into the campus (minimum 2 paths per carrier)

Security

  • Hyper-efficient cooling with outside air economization
  • Waste heat utilization (connection into district heating schemes)
  • Solar panels used to power non-critical areas such as office space
  • Sustainable underground (natural) drainage on site
  • Permeable hard landscaping to increase the gross external area for nature
  • Electric vehicle charging stations for cars and bikes
  • Small things that add up over time: recycling, motion-sensor LED lights, drought-resistant landscaping and more
