Equinix (SY5)
The Equinix SY5 International Business Exchange™ (IBX) stands as the largest data centre in Australia to date, representing a massive leap in digital infrastructure for the region. Since becoming operational in 2019, it has provided a sprawling 17,618 square meters of whitespace. At its full build out capacity, the facility is designed to house 9,220 cabinets, offering unparalleled scale for businesses looking to expand their digital footprint in the Southern Hemisphere.
Unmatched Connectivity and Ecosystem
A primary advantage of SY5 is its integration into the existing network effect of Sydney’s tech landscape. It benefits from direct fiber cross connect capabilities to the SY1, SY2, SY3, and SY4 IBX data centres. This physical proximity allows tenants to tap into Australia's richest ecosystem of customers, including 93 peering networks and a dedicated Internet Exchange Point, facilitating low latency data transfer and high speed interconnection.
Power Infrastructure and Efficiency
To support its massive scale, SY5 is equipped with a fully built out power capacity of 54 MW. This energy dense environment is managed with a focus on both performance and sustainability. The facility is designed to accommodate various deployment needs, ranging from single full or partial cabinets to large scale dedicated suites and cages, ensuring that power delivery remains flexible and scalable as tenant requirements evolve.
System Redundancy and Reliability
Reliability is the cornerstone of the SY5 architecture, ensuring mission critical operations remain online 24/7. Both the electrical systems and the cooling infrastructure are built with N+1 redundancy. This means there is at least one independent backup component for every primary system, providing a safety net that allows for maintenance or unexpected failures without impacting the overall performance or uptime of the data centre.
Security, Compliance, and Certifications
SY5 adheres to the highest global standards for security, quality, and environmental management. The facility boasts an extensive list of certifications, including ISO 27001 for information security and PCI DSS for payment card safety. It also meets rigorous audit standards like SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II, alongside environmental and energy benchmarks such as ISO 14001, ISO 50001, and LEED, ensuring a secure and responsible operational environment.
On Site Amenities and Support Services
Beyond the technical hardware, SY5 provides a professional environment designed for the people who manage the servers. The facility includes breakrooms, conference rooms, showers, and work kiosks, alongside practical technical support like Remote Hands, crash carts, and loaner tools. These amenities ensure that technicians and visiting staff have the necessary resources to perform complex tasks efficiently while maintaining a comfortable working atmosphere.
