Data Center Services

Emergency Operations Room

Seasoned CEOs and business owners understand that disaster recovery is of the utmost importance to any business plan. A secure area is provided to our Data Center customers as part of the services purchased from Plateau.

In the event of a theft, fire, or flood at your home office, Data Center clients may reserve this area. Plateau offers its clients the ability to place key employees in our Emergency Operations Room to ensure that business operations continue uninterrupted. This space is physically located within the same secure, weather-hardened area. When it is not reserved for emergency use, general access is available to our Data Center clients.

Power & Environmental Control

Back-Up Power

The Data Center has two Caterpillar generators fed by 500-gallon diesel tanks. Both generators are capable of handling the full load of the Data Center, providing full generator redundancy. When the system recognizes a loss of commercial power, the generator automatically engages and power is immediately transferred, resulting in zero downtime. The Data Center has two fully-redundant electrical rooms, each equipped with a 250 kW Schneider Electric UPS.

Fire Suppression

A state-of-the-art fire suppression system utilizes HFC-125, a safe, clean and electrically non-conductive fire suppression agent intended to protect personnel and other high-value assets. The system automatically senses when a fire starts and immediately sends an alarm, warning anyone inside, before it initiates the process of extinguishing the fire through chemical and physical mechanisms without affecting oxygen levels.

Cooling System

The Data Center equipment pods are equipped with redundant Schneider Electric Direct Expansion In-Row cooling systems with integrated monitoring. The system provides temperature monitoring and adapts its cooling output to rectify fluctuations in temperature. The equipment pods utilize hot-aisle containment to further improve cooling efficiency.
