HTC-ITC , a subsidiary of Hanoi Telecom , is benefiting from Vietnam ’ s first Uptime TCCF TIER III-certified data center delivered by Delta Electronics .

Delta Electronics , a global leader in

power and thermal management solutions , has announced the successful implementation of its energysaving POD ( Point of Delivery ) data center solution to enable Vietnam ’ s first Uptime TCCF ( Tier Certification of Constructed Facility ) TIER III-certified data center for HTC- ITC , a subsidiary of Hanoi Telecom .
The TIER III certification by the US-based Uptime Institute entails an annual uptime of 99.982 % for this newly-implemented data center . This IT facility is also expected to achieve an eco-friendly high-efficiencygrade ( 1 ) annual power use effectiveness ( PUE ) value as low as 1.4 through the support of Delta ’ s uninterruptible power supply ( UPS ) systems , in-row precision cooling , environmental monitoring platform , racks , accessories and the Data Center Infrastructure Monitoring ( DCIM ) system for comprehensive and remote control .
Madam Trinh Minh Chau , Chairwoman of HTC-ITC , expressed her delight in cooperating with Delta Electronics . Through its collaboration with Delta , HTC-ITC intended to build the best quality data center and provide world-class service to customers in Vietnam and around the world .

parent company Hanoi Telecom to facilitate next-generation ICT infrastructure for their customers in Vietnam .
“ Being able to construct the country ’ s first Uptime TIER III-certified data center for HTC-ITC is truly an honor for Delta . Together with our partners and customers in the region , we are building the foundations of the 5G networks that will support substantial economic growth for years to come .”
HTC-ITC ’ s new data center , located in the Hoa Lac High-Tech Zone , occupies 750 square meters and has a total power capacity of 750kW original requirement plus 750kW for redundant power protection , in line with Uptime ’ s TIER III 2N architecture specifications . This data center is expandable to 900 racks in total . Delta ’ s highly modular and scalable POD data center solution provides the flexibility and reliability to achieve this rigorous qualification .
Unlike TIER I and TIER II , the Uptime TIER III Constructed Facility Certification ( TCCF ) -certified data centers do not allow shutdowns during maintenance or replacement . For example , in addition to the 99.982 % annual uptime requirement , float voltage on the isolated equipment must be close to 0 while no hotspots with a temperature over 250C are allowed .
The HTC-ITC ’ s data center has reached 52 tests to pass the TCCF certification , the first time ever for a data center built in Vietnam . p
