Project description
Conversion of 50,000 SF building into an 84,000 SF data centre, including an 11,000 SF computer room, command centre and network lab, 6,500 SF of technical support spaces and 35,000 SF for Rogers’ Programs Development Group in Markham. Additionally, this project required the construction of two switch stations for Rogers Wireless with a total area of 11,400 SF. Urbacon worked with Rogers Shared Operations for the project goal of building a Data Centre to service Rogers’ customers. The power system was upgraded to a Tier III/IV standard: 2 new 500 KVA utility services, each from separate utility loops. Critical power upgraded to System+System (N+N) 1670 KVA per system expandable without interruption in 2 stages. Each system consists of 2 1336 KW UPS coupled to 2.2 MW engines – one unit per system installed. Urbacon also designed and implemented a cable management system.
