CyrusOne Optimizes Facility Performance With Gordon Ceilings
CyrusOne has announced it is the first in the industry to use Gordon Data Center Products heavy-duty, rod-suspended ceiling structures in an open plenum design for colocation.
The design of Gordon’s structural ceiling grid gives customers the flexibility and durability unachievable by ceiling solutions historically seen in commercial data center settings. Historical solutions require two separate structures—an acoustical ceiling tile (ACT) drop ceiling hung beneath an industrial-grade uni-strut infrastructure. The Gordon grid solution—available in a 4-by-4 grid and 2-by-4 grid for light-fixture drop-in—has the strength and reinforcement to support the weight and intricacies of the overhead cable and utility distribution required in a data center. It has the aesthetic appeal of the drop ceiling, but in a single construction.
