Shell Data Center Located 30 Miles North of Manhattan Ideal for
Disaster Recovery and Mirrored Data Processing for Financial and
Trading Firms.
Briarcliff
Manor, NY, USA (January 8, 2014) -- T5
Data Centers™, innovators in providing
state-of-the-art, customizable and highly reliable computing support
environments for any enterprise, today announced the launch of T5@NY
in Westchester County, the company's seventh U.S. data center
location and the first T5 facility in the Northeast.
Developed
in conjunction with Lincoln Rackhouse, the data center division for
Lincoln Property Company, the new powered-shell, purpose-built data
center is a completely renovated facility located 30 miles north of
Manhattan. The 38,000-square-foot building is located on 9.4 acres
and the site was chosen because of its proximity to New York City,
making it ideal for disaster recovery or use as a "mirror"
data center location for enterprise, financial services, trading, and
technology firms. It has an existing 2 MW capacity expandable to 4.25
MW, with fiber telecommunication connections available from multiple
providers.
"When
we decided to open our T5@NY facility, we applied what we learned
from Hurricane Sandy," said Aaron Wangenheim, Chief Marketing
Officer for T5 Data Centers. "We chose Briarcliff Manor because
we believe it to be one of the safest data center locations in the
New York metro, as evidenced by the fact that the area was largely
unaffected by Sandy and never lost power. It's also in the heart of a
booming technology region. T5@NY is a great addition to our
portfolio, expanding our presence into the Northeast and giving us
access to new clients seeking data center resiliency and
customization."
T5@NY
is located in the heart of the New York BioHud Valley, home of the
largest biotechnology workforce in New York State. T5@NY can serve as
an excellent laboratory or incubator space for regional medical and
research institutions, such as Cornell, New York Medical College,
Phelps Memorial Hospital, and Westchester Medical Center. Westchester
County is also home to the headquarters of New York Life, Chrysler
Financial, Liberty Mutual, PepsiCo, IBM, and other global companies.
T5
Data Centers is marketing to new tenants for T5@NY now. The facility
is expected to be completely operational by the second quarter of
this year.
