[AusNOG] "Equinix Unveils Plan to Build its Third IBX Data Center in Sydney"

Yeah, was thinking exactly the same thing. 4kva is very low, especially compared to tomorrows standard. Initially they mentioned they were going to build for 6kva on the Skilled site, guessing now they have a new site means more space and less power density due to the amount of power they can bring in.

If only people would build to an average of 10kw per rack.  The press release talks about 4 kva which is only 3.2 kw per rack.  Sounds about the same power density as SY1.
