LDeX2 FEATURES
Data Centre Power
Our onsite private substation receives 1.5MW of electrical power from two independent primary upstream substations for maximum mains resilience. Every rack within the data centre is provided with truly diverse A+B feeds as standard. With N+N UPS protection, your rack power is reserved on 2 x diverse UPS banks for complete fail over capabilities – far more resilient than N+1 alternatives. N+1 Diesel generator power is always on standby with fuel on site and 24/7 replenishment contracts in place.
Data Centre Security
The colocation Manchester site is surrounded by 2.5m security fencing and comprehensive CCTV systems which report images to on-site security & a specialist third party monitoring centre for an additional layer of protection. Virtual tripwires, armed at certain times of the day, protect the boundaries and provide immediate intruder threat alerts to our security guards and send automatically generated images direct to the local police where a threat is identified. Facial recognition biometric systems and volumetric man-trap portals work with our secure access procedures to control secure access to all areas of the data centre.
Data Centre Connectivity
LDeX2 is carrier neutral and provides direct access to a range of leading network providers and carriers. All clients are free to select the network of their choice from those available on-site, whilst direct and low latency dark fibre availability, high capacity optical wave lengths and layer2 access to other data centre locations provide inter-connections to networks and equipment located elsewhere.

The LDeX2 data centre utilises the very best in cooling and direct heat channelling technology to deliver and manage cold air flow with maximum efficiency. All areas of the data centre benefit from N+1 cooling resilience and we can cool up to 10kW per rack.
