The company is also adding an additional 11 MW of customer power to the City of London campus which is scheduled to be available in the fourth quarter of 2012.
“Our location in the City of London provides our customers with superior response times for their most demanding applications,” said David Ruberg, Interxion’s Chief Executive Officer. “London is one of the leading Internet hubs in the world and has historically been the highest demand market in Europe for carrier-neutral colocation data centre space.

Interxion has had particular success in attracting customers in the financial services segment and currently houses over 100 trading & investment firms who benefit from the low latency connectivity to the trading exchanges located at, or within close proximity to, Interxion’s City of London campus.
Interxion’s second London data centre is designed to support up to 2.5 kVA per sqm of continuous customer load and is secured by a long term lease. The capital expenditures for LON 2 are expected to total approximately EUR 38 million (£33 million). The Company’s 2011 CAPEX guidance of EUR 140 to EUR 160 million includes the forecasted 2011 spending for the LON2 facility and the power expansion.
