The Node4 Leeds Data Centre is a premier facility strategically positioned for easy accessibility, located near the intersection of the M1 and M62 motorways. Spanning a generous 13,000 sq ft, the facility is designed to accommodate a high volume of hardware with a total capacity of 450 racks. To ensure organizational efficiency and localized containment, the data floor is intelligently partitioned into four separate halls, allowing for flexible deployment options ranging from shared rackspace to private suites and custom footprints.
Reliability is the cornerstone of the facility’s power design, which boasts a total site capacity of 3.3MVA supported by dual transformers. The electrical architecture is built for maximum uptime, utilizing an N+N UPS configuration and N+1 generator backup to ensure seamless transitions during power fluctuations. This commitment to redundancy satisfies Tier 3 design standards, providing a 2N redundancy level that guarantees critical systems remain operational even during maintenance or equipment failure.
To maintain optimal hardware performance, the data centre employs a sophisticated climate control system featuring N+1 water-cooled chillers paired with N+N air handlers. This setup ensures consistent airflow and temperature regulation across all halls. Beyond cooling, the facility is protected by a multi-layered fire safety strategy. This includes VESDA (Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus) for rapid smoke detection and a combination of FM200 and IG55 fire suppression systems, which are designed to extinguish fires without damaging sensitive electronic equipment.
Security at the Leeds site is comprehensive and continuous, meeting the rigorous requirements for ISO27001 and PCI DSS compliance. The physical perimeter is secured by professional fencing and monitored by CCTV surveillance. Access is strictly controlled via photo ID verification and an anti-tailgating pod to prevent unauthorized entry. These physical barriers are reinforced by 24/7 manned security personnel, ensuring that the premises are monitored and protected around the clock.
As a major Point of Presence POP, the facility offers high-speed MPLS network integration and dedicated internet connections, making it a vital hub for regional connectivity. Clients benefit from a suite of managed services, including an on-site support team available for remote hands and eyes tasks. This allows for seamless off-site management of cabling and hardware. Furthermore, the ecosystem is bolstered by several tenants offering specialized colocation services, providing a versatile environment for businesses of all sizes.
