Interxion, a leading European provider of carrier-neutral data centres, is expanding the capacity of its London City data centre for the second time this year, in order to meet growing customer demand for high power density infrastructure. The new 400 m² of equipped space, scheduled for completion in Q1 2009, will have access to the data centers 13 megawatt power supply, allowing it to deliver exceptionally high density power configurations of up to 17.5 kW per cabinet position.

The new expansion follows soon after a 1,250 m2 build-out which was completed in April of this year. It consolidates Interxion’s position as the only carrier-neutral data centre provider within the City of London with the ability to accommodate increased customer requirements for high power density configurations. The Interxion London data centre also hosts a Point of Presence for the London Internet Exchange (LINX).

“Our mix of City of London location, power and connectivity is proving highly attractive to customers,” said Greg McCulloch, MD of Interxion UK. “The site is served by some 28 carriers and network partners in total, giving a wide range of connectivity options, and customers can reduce latency while enhancing network resilience and availability by peering directly to LINX.”
