Financial
Institution Turning to T5 as Experts Who Can Deliver Customized,
Resilient Data Center Infrastructure.
Kings
Mountain, NC, USA (September 17, 2013) -- T5
Data Centers today announced that a global
financial services company is the newest tenant to sign a lease for
data center space at the T5@Kings Mountain campus.
The
customer has signed a 10-year turn-key lease for an undisclosed
amount of critical load. The lease gives this customer occupancy of
half of one of the campus' powered building shells. The financial
institution selected T5 Data Centers because of the company's ability
to completely customize the facility's design to meet their specific
requirements, resulting in a data center with a very robust and
redundant infrastructure that ensures uninterrupted uptime. Leasing
space at the T5@Kings Mountain campus will give the customer complete
control over their data processing environment. They have dedicated
and isolated computing space for absolute security.
"We
are seeing more financial institutions from the Northeast coming to
T5 for data center solutions that can be customized, offer greater
reliability and better security at a reasonable price," said
Pete Marin, President and CEO of T5 Data Centers. "Our Kings
Mountain facility is ideally located, since it is in the same time
zone and close to the Northeast and has a solid fiber connection with
multiple providers including long haul fiber connectivity from AT&T
& Level 3. We anticipate other financial institutions to follow
the customer's example because of our low Risk location, High Quality
Data Center Space and our Customized Solution."
Other
factors that make T5@Kings Mountain an attractive data center
location are the low cost of occupancy and the low cost of power.
Duke Energy has a dedicated 180 MW substation servicing the Kings
Mountain data center campus delivering stable, low-cost power. The
campus also uses underground concrete encased duct bank system for
secure reliable power delivery. Additionally, state and local tax
incentives offer up to 100 percent abatement on data center equipment
and software.
The
T5@Kings Mountain data center campus features turn-key, power shell
and build-to-suit options within the 280-acre campus. The geographic
location has a low occurrence of both natural and manmade disasters
and the buildings are structurally enhanced to withstand winds up to
185 mph. The core and shell is LEED certified.
