Business Connexion (BCX) (Telkom Centurion Nexus)
The Telkom Centurion Nexus (NEXUS DC) is a key Tier 3 compliant data center situated in Centurion, Gauteng, South Africa. Commissioned in 2002, it is a vital part of BCX’s national data center portfolio under Telkom SA, designed to support robust enterprise and cloud services.
Facility Design & Capacity
This facility provides 2,650 square meters of usable white space and is equipped to accommodate up to 742 racks. Its design supports modular growth, aligning with Telkom’s Always-On architecture, similar to its sister facility, HUB DC.
Power & Cooling Infrastructure
NEXUS DC delivers a critical IT load of 1.8 megawatts (MW), which is its Fully Built-Out Power. The Tier 3 compliance ensures the infrastructure is robust, enabling concurrent maintainability for essential systems.
Security & Fire Protection
While specific security and fire protection details aren't provided in the source text, a Tier 3 design inherently implies comprehensive security measures and advanced fire suppression systems to ensure the safety and integrity of the housed IT assets and infrastructure.
Connectivity & Interconnection
The data center is fully integrated with Telkom’s IP/MPLS core network, offering customers high-speed, low-latency connectivity across regional and national platforms. The facility offers various accommodation options, including Full Cabinets, Partial Cabinets, and Shared Rackspace, along with Remote Hands services.
Certifications & Standards
NEXUS DC adheres to the Tier 3 design standard, signifying its ability to provide concurrently maintainable infrastructure, meaning every component required to support the IT load can be taken out of service for planned maintenance without affecting the critical load.
Additional Features
The facility is crucial to Telkom's infrastructure, supporting enterprise and cloud services. Its role within BCX's portfolio and integration with the national network underscore its importance in the broader digital landscape of South Africa.
