A transportable data centre in a container, module48 is fully self-contained, resilient accommodation for your ICT infrastructure.

module48 makes it possible for you to deploy ICT services, practically anywhere, at a lower cost than building and fitting out a traditional data centre. And with fewer overheads, time and design constraints.

It’s a total data centre solution

Being fully self-contained, module48 gives you an integrated, turnkey data centre in the shortest possible time. It’s low-cost, efficient server and network accommodation without the need for a site build.

That means immediate availability of ICT services from a data centre which can be redeployed to anywhere you need it. It’s the perfect solution for interim use, but equally suitable as permanent accommodation for your ICT infrastructure.

Flexible enough for use in different circumstances, in diverse environments

Because it’s transportable and fit for all environments, module48 can be used in harsh remote locations, urban interiors and everywhere in between. On a rooftop, in a basement or out in the open, it’s suitable for commercial and industrial purposes. You can use it anywhere you need ICT services.

What’s more, the same module48 can be redeployed to different locations for a single business or it can be used by a different business altogether. Imagine the possible savings in ICT infrastructure complexity and deployment costs.

Quick and easy to transport and deploy

Fully tested and commissioned with all of your ICT infrastructure in place, module48 can be deployed in as little as 10 weeks. That’s faster than other modular solutions, and there’s no comparison with a traditional data centre.

Your plug-and-play module48 would be up and running, providing the service you expect, before a traditional data centre facility could even be designed.

Incorporating the 8 disciplines of data centre engineering

A 4th generation data centre, module48’s design seamlessly integrates the eight disciplines of data centre engineering: structure, data cabling, electrical, fire and environmental, mechanical, racking, infrastructure management, and security.

Because the eight disciplines are incorporated in its construction, module48 gives you the same robustness and resiliency as any traditional data centre.
