MIAMI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Based on the extraordinary success and continued rapid growth of its customer base at the Network Access Point (NAP) of the Capital Region, Terremark Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ:TMRK – News), a leading global provider of managed IT infrastructure services, today announced it has acquired 27 acres of land directly adjacent to its datacenter campus. The $5-million land acquisition provides Terremark the ability to add at least 250,000 square feet of high-quality datacenter space and close to 100,000 square feet of Class A office space, effectively doubling the size of the campus. As a result of recently securing large customer contracts for services delivered from the NAP of the Capital Region, more than 65 percent of the campus’ available datacenter space is currently contracted, including the newly launched third datacenter. The company expects to begin customer deployments in this datacenter during the third quarter of Terremark’s fiscal year 2011.

The powerful combination of Terremark’s innovative suite of solutions, in particular its ultra-secure colocation services and revolutionary Enterprise Cloud product, along with the massive connectivity offered through the NAP of the Capital Region’s multiple global carrier networks has been a key driver in the expansion of the campus. As a result of the compelling value proposition offered by this combination, Terremark continues to sign contracts with various federal government customers and global enterprises for services to be delivered from the campus.

“With the outstanding success and explosive growth of the NAP of the Capital Region, acquiring the land adjacent to the existing campus was a vital step in securing our position to continue meeting the strong demand for Terremark’s services among federal customers and large multinational companies,” said Manuel D. Medina, Terremark’s Chairman and CEO. “Our ability to secure contracts for a significant percentage of our existing datacenter space so quickly is a testament to the unique ecosystem of highly secure, top-quality solutions that are ideally suited to meet the needs of large organizations pursuing datacenter consolidation and other IT projects to drive greater efficiencies in their systems.”

Terremark’s NAP of the Capital Region campus, from which the company offers its complete suite of IT solutions, including its Enterprise Cloud, colocation, managed hosting, disaster recovery/COOP and secure information services, is designed to exceed federal government standards for data communications and hosting sites, as well as meet the needs of power, space and bandwidth-intensive mission-critical applications and hot/warm sites for disaster recovery/COOP environments. Along with the world-class datacenter facilities at the campus, which is strategically located 60 miles outside Washington, D.C. in Culpeper County, Va., Terremark recently unveiled a 72,000-square-foot headquarters building that features a 150-seat auditorium built to the federal government’s Physical Security Standards for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIF) and approximately 50,000 square feet of Class A office space that can be built to SCIF specifications in order to meet customer demands.
