Cyrus One Data Center
In March 2007 Metzger was awarded the construction for the 16,000 sf expansion to the Cyrus One Data Center. This project is part of a multi phase expansion to the existing 60,000 sf Tier 4 enterprise data center facility located on the Southwest Freeway, inside Loop 610. The new high-density facility is designed from the ground-up to provide 250 watts of power per square foot to support the demands of the power-hungry blade servers. The new project will bring in over 35,000 volts of power to the site to meet new capacity requirements. The current expansion will be completed in July 2007 with a future expansion planned for later in the year.
Over the past 10 years Metzger has installed or renovated numerous data centers for companies large and small, public and private.
