About
Evocative Data Centers' SJC3 facility delivers 3 MW of total critical power capacity from a 15,000 sq ft colocation data center in the heart of Santa Clara, CA — purpose-built for the power density and redundancy demands that Silicon Valley enterprises require. For facility managers and property owners evaluating mission-critical electrical infrastructure, SJC3 represents a benchmark-level deployment: four Eaton Powerware 9315 500KVA UPS modules provide N+1 and 2N redundancy options, while a 2MW Caterpillar generator backed by 3,000 gallons of onsite diesel fuel ensures continuity through any utility disruption. The facility's 450-ton chilled water cooling system and redundant power and network feeds further reinforce its suitability for high-availability commercial operations. From a power distribution standpoint, SJC3 supports both DC power A and B feed options, making it compatible with a broad range of enterprise IT load profiles typical of office, institutional, and mixed-use commercial tenants scaling their infrastructure in the San Jose metro. Connectivity infrastructure includes direct fiber cross-connects to major Bay Area data centers and direct cloud on-ramps to Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud, served by carriers including Lumen, AT&T, Zayo, Cogent, Verizon, and Comcast. Laser grid smoke detection with VESDA detectors and heat detection rounds out the life safety systems. Facility managers overseeing multi-site commercial portfolios across Silicon Valley will find SJC3's scalable colocation tiers — from single-cabinet deployments to full private suites — a reliable anchor for distributed power and data strategy. Evocative operates additional California facilities in Los Angeles, San Jose, and Santa Clara, supporting multi-site coverage across the state's major commercial markets.
