5C Data Centers to Enter Phoenix Market
5C Data Centers (“5CDC”), a provider of data center services, plans to launch a new region in Phoenix, Arizona. The first facility in the region, PHX01, is scheduled to go live in 2025.
The first data center, to be built near downtown Phoenix, will comprise 140,000 square feet and 20MW of critical IT power capacity. With 5CDC’s experience designing for the latest GPUs and direct-to-chip liquid cooling, PHX01 will be able to accommodate the most demanding AI and machine learning workloads, supporting power densities of up to 132kW per cabinet.
Montreal-based 5CDC continues to prioritize its commitments to climate responsibility in its expansion to Phoenix. Adiabatic trim cooling and heat-tolerant coolant inlet temperatures will minimize both water and power usage. In a release, the company touted Phoenix, saying it is known for its access to renewable energy, availability of talent, and low natural disaster risk; Phoenix has established itself as a key data center region.
