T Mobile: T-Mobile Warszawa-Szlachecka
About T-Mobile Warszawa-Szlachecka
T-Mobile Warszawa-Szlachecka (CPD Szlachecka A & B) is a modern data processing center complex operated by T-Mobile Polska, located at ul. Szlachecka 49, Białołęka district, Warsaw, Poland. The facility is one of T-Mobile’s key telecommunications nodes in Poland and plays a strategic role in its Data Center & Cloud services portfolio, providing colocation, cloud computing, data transmission, and cybersecurity services. Szlachecka B was completed in December 2021, expanding T-Mobile’s capacity in Warsaw.
Because it is located away from the city centre and busy industrial zones, yet within Warsaw, it combines safety, accessibility, and connectivity. The design emphasizes high reliability, redundancy, and energy efficiency.
