Features and Benefits
Comprehensive All-in-One Infrastructure with Guaranteed Protection
A pre integrated solution that combines a fire suppression system (early detection and extinction), precision cooling (in rack, overhead, or in row configurations), insulated 19" standard racks, and 3-in-1 access control (PIN/fingerprint/RFID) with video monitoring. Includes power distribution, modular UPS, and batteries for customized backup.
Intelligent Management
A unified, all in one monitoring platform that collects, visualizes, and reports data in real-time (locally and remotely) from all systems: cooling, power, security, and environmental. Compatible with CMMS Edge for centralized management, proactive alerts, and predictive maintenance. Benefit: Minimizes downtime through constant supervision and automated response, with the flexibility to integrate into existing BMS/NOC systems and generate compliance reports.
Energy Efficiency and Scalable Modular Flexibility
Optimized energy performance (reduced PUE) through inverter precision air conditioning and an IP55 & IP65 design that allows for the internalization of systems like fire protection. A LEGO-like modular architecture for the customization and gradual expansion of racks, cooling, power, and batteries. Benefit: Up to 40% energy savings and seamless scalability, adapting to changing needs with rapid redeployment and reduced operational costs.

1. What is a micro data center and what is it used for?
A micro data center (MDC) is a compact, self contained critical infrastructure that integrates racks, cooling, power, monitoring, and security into a unified system. It is used for:
Edge computing (processing data close to the user).
5G telecommunications nodes.
Remote server rooms in banks, hospitals, or retail.
Industrial environments with extreme conditions (outdoors, plants).
2. How does a micro data center guarantee security?
It combines multiple layers of protection:
Physical: IP55 cabinets (resistance to dust/water), 3-in-1 access control (PIN/fingerprint/RFID), and video surveillance.
Environmental: Early fire detection systems and automatic suppression.
Operational: Real time monitoring of intrusions, temperature, and humidity with immediate alerts.
3. What energy efficiency does a micro data center offer?
It achieves a PUE <1.3 through:
Inverter precision cooling with EC fans.
Scalable UPS and batteries.
Cold/hot aisle containment and a plug-and-play design that reduces energy losses.
Energy savings can reach up to 40% compared to traditional infrastructures.
4. Can a micro data center be monitored remotely?
Yes. It includes all-in-one monitoring platforms that:
Collect real-time data on temperature, humidity, power, and security.
Send proactive alerts via email/SMS/API.
Are compatible with CMMS Edge and BMS systems for predictive management and automated reporting.
5. How does a micro data center adapt to future growth?
Thanks to its LEGO-like modular design:
It allows for scaling racks, cooling, power, and batteries without interrupting operations.
It supports expansions from 1 rack up to 40 foot containers.
It is relocatable and integrates with existing infrastructures.
6. What is the difference between a micro data center and a traditional data center?
Micro data centers are compact, modular, and autonomous solutions designed to operate in small spaces and process data locally and in real time, while traditional data centers require large facilities and greater investment.
7. What are the main applications of micro data centers?
Micro data centers are ideal for a wide range of applications, including:
• Edge computing: Data processing close to the source of generation to reduce latency and improve performance.
• Remote and branch offices: Providing local IT infrastructure to ensure business continuity in the event of a central network connection failure.
8. Can a micro data center integrate with the cloud?
Yes, micro data centers can operate in hybrid environments, integrating with cloud computing solutions to improve storage and processing capacity.
9. What are the main advantages of micro data centers?
Scalability and flexibility mean these systems can easily expand to meet a company’s growing needs, allowing processing, storage, and networking capacity to be added as needed. This adaptability is crucial for growing businesses and those facing fluctuating IT demands.
Rapid deployment is one of the biggest attractions of micro data centers. Thanks to their modular, prefabricated design, these systems can be deployed in significantly less time compared to traditional data centers. This is especially beneficial for companies that need a quick solution to meet urgent IT demands.
10. What factors should be considered when choosing a prefabricated data center?
When choosing a modular prefabricated data center, it is important to consider scalability, initial and final capacity, energy efficiency, physical security, manageability, and the technical support offered by the provider.
