The data center fills the second floor of a three-storey building that was the headquarters of itself s.r.o., a Brno telecom operator that later became part of Nej.cz. After PPF's CETIN bought Nej.cz, CETIN took over the network infrastructure and O2 took over the customers. O2 now sells housing here as its Brno POP and lists it as a Tier II site. Five halls hold the technical space. Two independent 22 kV connections run from the Vinohrady 110/22 kV substation, and N+1 Volvo Penta generators back them up. Racks can take AC or 48 V DC power, and the denser halls use hot and cold aisles. Backbone fiber runs from the building to Prague, Bratislava, Vienna, Ostrava and Poland, and other telecom operators keep points of presence here.
