Goonhilly Earth Station

Goonhilly Earth Station are converting old British Telecom Network Space into a new High-Performance Data Centre. The infrastructure in this site is generally 30 to 40 years old and we needed to upgrade their capacity and design to suit the latest in Data Centre Technology.

Whilst the site is to be developed for a new challenge there are existing customers severed from this switchgear via a UPS system to Server Racks and critical elements of transmit and receive antennas. We back fed the existing critical and essential services from a new B Stream Panel with UPS system to ensure that there was no interruption in service for either supply. Once this was complete, we stripped out the panel including the disposal of Asbestos which was in the old switchgear.
