Netrality Adds High-Density Data Hall With Zero Water Waste
Netrality Data Centers has completed a new high-density data hall at its Indy Telcom Center in Indianapolis, further strengthening its position as a major edge computing and interconnection hub in the US Midwest.
The 3,800-square-foot facility delivers 1 MW of critical capacity and is designed to handle workloads of up to 30kW per cabinet, marking a key expansion in the company’s core colocation infrastructure.
Netrality, which has owned the entire campus since July 2021, continues to develop and upgrade its assets at the site. The campus acts as the primary interconnection point for Indianapolis and serves customers needing both regional and national network reach.
Engineered for power density and sustainable cooling
The new data hall is built around Delta CubeĀ³ cooling technology, a closed-loop system that eliminates water waste while capturing heat directly at source.
This approach improves efficiency and optimises power use, allowing for dense server deployments without the need to reconfigure existing infrastructure.
Delta CubeĀ³ also adapts to growing power requirements from advanced workloads, including AI, machine learning (ML) and high-performance computing (HPC).
According to Netrality, the technology’s modular design reduces the operational and environmental challenges often associated with high-density deployments.
The development follows Netrality’s US$380m sustainability-linked loan, which supports the company’s broader goal of delivering power-efficient and climate-conscious data centre environments. The funding is tied to targets that include infrastructure upgrades, energy efficiency and sustainable growth.
Netrality has made sustainability a core part of its design and investment choices, including efforts to lower cooling energy consumption and maintain zero-water waste systems across new facilities. The Delta Cube3’s inclusion is consistent with this strategy, supporting both immediate operational needs and long-term efficiency targets.
Strategic edge and connectivity at scale
The Indy Telcom Center sits at the core of Midwest network traffic and offers ultra-low latency routes to cities such as Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City. Its position enables coast-to-coast data transit, placing the site at the intersection of regional and national connectivity infrastructure.
With more than 40 on-net providers, the site supports scalable interconnection and robust network architecture for businesses that require flexible, high-performance IT environments.
For enterprises, cloud providers and service platforms, this means low-latency access to a dense carrier ecosystem and the capacity to deploy demanding digital services close to end users.
Netrality’s continued investment in the campus also includes infrastructure improvements to other buildings across the site, including 701 West Henry Street, part of the wider buildout plan since the company’s acquisition of the property.
The expansion underscores a shift towards regional data centre strategies focused on edge capacity and distributed workloads.
By boosting power availability and improving environmental performance, Netrality aims to meet both the operational needs of its customers and rising industry expectations on infrastructure sustainability.
Netrality leadership outlines long-term expansion plan
Gerald M. Marshall, President and CEO of Netrality Data Centers, says the new data hall is part of the company’s ongoing expansion strategy at the campus:
"We are excited to unveil the new data hall, which is just one part of our broader strategy to enhance and expand the Indy Telcom Center since our acquisition.
“Our ongoing campus investments, including significant infrastructure upgrades to buildings like 701 West Henry, are a testament to our commitment to providing cutting-edge and sustainable data center solutions.
“These enhancements are designed to meet the growing demands of the digital economy and ensure our clients receive the most reliable, scalable, and efficient colocation and interconnection solutions available."
