Welcome to BlueSquare House, opened in August 2006 with 10,000 sq.ft of space

BlueSquare House is located inside its own secure compound with two layers of perimeter security

On arrival at BlueSquare House all personnel must register with the 24x7 NOC who control site wide security

The BlueSquare buildings are monitored via internal and flood lit external CCTV which is kept on record for 30 days

Personnel are issued with an electronic access fob containing their photo and access level information, enabling the NOC to control access to specific areas of the data centre

The main data floor contains extra secure caged areas housing various quantities of racks

BlueSquare also provide individual quarter, half and full locked racks on the open data floor

From caged areas to 3000 sq.ft dedicated data floor suites

The data floors are serviced by N+1 DX close control units, ensuring the climate is constantly kept to 21*C +/- 2*C

All of the critical rack loads are fed by fully redundant N+1 UPS systems which provide 15 minutes of battery autonomy in the event of a power failure. They also clean the power fed to the racks maintaining a constant 232 volts

The multiple UPS systems are connected to an N+1 mains change over switch, allowing raw power to be swapped to Generator Backup within 24 seconds of a mains failure

Our external secure plant area houses the fan units for the close control A/C systems, as well as our generators, fuel tanks and mains sub-stations.

Our FG Wilson 2 megawatt generators provide 18 hours of continuous power in the event of a mains failure, with 12 hour re-fuelling contracts in place

Upon leaving the BlueSquare site our security barriers allow the NOC to control departure, preventing tailgating
