November 30, 2006 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Data center operator TELEHOUSE America (telehouse.com) announced on Thursday it is in the process of increasing power management capabilities and power capacity at its downtown Manhattan facility, Broadway Center - 25B, in anticipation of looming metro New York power issues.

The additions for its most popular New York data and colocation center will be in place by next month, says the company. The enhanced power handling system increases the reliability factor and boosts power capacity by more than 20 percent.

TELEHOUSE will add four new UPS units to 25B's existing UPS setup, resulting in four UPS sets arranged in an N+1 configuration. If one views a single N+1 configuration as one set, in the event that a UPS unit in the set experiences a power load distribution failure, the load will transfer to its UPS set mate without interruption. Metro New York's power distribution is becoming more uncertain each year, says TELEHOUSE, and 25B's upgrade will insure that clients and NYIIX members will have dependable, secure power availability.

"Power issues overshadow all others in client conversations," says Masahiro Furuya, president and CEO of TELEHOUSE America. "The new servers built to meet exploding storage and transfer requirements mandated by regulations will need more energy. There also are higher 'hardware to space density' ratios and rising fuel prices connected with providing power and cooling… this upgrade insures that we will meet our clients' reliability expectations for years to come."
