Optimized for evolving IT demands – from standard data processing to high-performance AI applications.
Siemens Smart Infrastructure, Cadolto Datacenter GmbH, and Legrand Data Center Solutions have introduced a modular edge data center designed to support faster deployment, flexible scaling, and energy efficiency. The system was presented at Data Center World Frankfurt.
As demand grows for reliable, high-performance computing—driven by AI, edge processing, and data-intensive applications—businesses require infrastructure that goes beyond capacity. They need systems that are efficient, scalable, and quick to deploy. This modular solution offers a fully integrated data center that can be configured, installed, expanded, and relocated with flexibility and ease.
Unlike containerized data centers, this solution offers customizable, prefabricated modules that can be tailored to unique operational needs and deployed in a fraction of the time – with planning cycles from six to 12 months. The data center supports everything from basic workloads to high-density, AI-powered computing.
Acting as an exclusive technology partner, Siemens integrates its full suite of Smart Infrastructure technologies – from medium- and low-voltage power distribution, to building automation, fire safety, and physical security systems. Optional maintenance contracts and connection to a 24/7 emergency and service control center complete the solution. As both product provider and integrator, Siemens ensures seamless system interaction, minimizes interface complexity, and accelerates deployment. With Siemens Financial Services providing flexible financing and rental models, businesses can scale up infrastructure without upfront capital investment. Cadolto Datacenter acts as manufacturer and general contractor of the modular edge data center, delivering the prefabricated modular building with integrated climate control. Legrand Data Center Solutions brings its expertise in IT white space infrastructure – from racks and structured cabling to intelligent Power Distribution Units (PDUs) and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems.
Each unit of the modular edge data center is factory-built and delivered ready for operation, reducing the need for extensive on-site work and allowing for upgrades without system downtime. The design supports lower environmental impact, with an estimated 30 percent reduction in CO₂ emissions during construction, a 90 percent recycling rate, and components that can be reused.
