As part of Teleglobe’s major, five-year corporate initiative, this 15,000-square-foot data center met stringent progress requirements and diligent schedule demands.

Value Delivered

Forest Electric New Jersey (Forest NJ) built out a new 15,000-square-foot data center at Teleglobe’s Newark offices, leveraging our extensive data center engineering and build-out expertise to deliver the project on time and on budget—which allowed the client to meet stringent progress requirements on a major corporate initiative.

  • Running five risers from the basement, through the 9th floor, and up to the 11th floor
  • Installation of a new 2MW generator and new chillers on the rooftop
  • Installation of 25 conduits that ran from the 11th floor to the rooftop
