iTech Tower 2 Data Centre Building - a greenfield development by Grand Ming Group commenced in early 2013, is designed and constructed to meet today’s cloud data centre infrastructure requirements. The provision of data centre halls are divided into communal zone and dedicated zone. In the communal zone, we prepare the major infrastructure for typical use and incorporate key features of high power density and high head room for multiple layers of overhead services provision. With major M&E infrastructure completed in early 2016 and further finalized the fit-out details for our potential clients, the site is ready for IT equipment move-in by third quarter 2016.
