GE’s electrical distribution systems will provide redundant, fault-tolerant, high-density power for mission-critical applications in several ViaWest data centers across the U.S.
GE’s Critical Power business has announced that ViaWest has selected GE’s electrical distribution systems to power several of the company’s innovative data centers. ViaWest is deploying GE’s electrical distribution systems at its Lone Mountain, Tier IV design-certified data center in Las Vegas; the Cornell data center in Denver; the Synergy Park data center in Dallas and two new data centers under construction in Denver and Minneapolis.
GE’s electrical distribution systems, which include substation distribution equipment, switchboards, panelboards, transformers, and power switching equipment, meet ViaWest’s needs for guaranteed uptime, redundancy and fault tolerance. GE’s ability to expedite the delivery of critical electrical infrastructure to ViaWest, accompanied with flexible financing provided by GE Capital, helped ViaWest maximize capital efficiency by matching payments on the lease with cash inflows from new customers.
