Sabey Data Centers: SDC West C

Sabey Data Centers West C, also known as the Intergate.West Digital Forest Fortress, is a robust, multi-tenant colocation facility located at 12101 Tukwila International Boulevard, Tukwila, WA. It’s part of the Sabey Intergate.West campus in the Seattle / South Seattle region. Its strategic significance lies in its position within one of the largest Internet campus clusters in North America, offering proximity to key demand drivers: downtown Seattle, Sea-Tac International Airport, and major transportation corridors. It is operator-owned and run by Sabey Data Centers, a private company known for its vertical integration (design, build, operate), sustainable power sourcing, and high-density infrastructure. 

⚙️ Facility Highlights

• Power Capacity: ~28 MW of total power. 
• Redundancy & Resiliency: The facility features multiple power feeds for consistent uptime.
• Cooling Systems: Advanced cooling designed for high-density computing. Redundant cooling mechanisms in place. 
• High Density Support: Supports high per-rack power densities (e.g. up to ~12-15 kW per rack in related building tenants like Digital Fortress). 
• Design & Infrastructure: Built with seismic resilience (Seismic Zone 3 critical rating for parts of campus such as the Digital Fortress colocation footprint) and concrete + steel reinforced structure. Raised floor design with appropriate floor load considerations. 

🔐 Security & Compliance

• 24×7 on-site security personnel. 
• Access control systems including biometric and keycard authentication for restricted areas. 
• CCTV/video surveillance with retention policies.
• Monitoring: Continuous environment, fire, and power monitoring via both local and remote systems.
