The 2002 press release is talking about the Fremont 1 facility not the newer Fremont 2 facility. Fremont 1 has a fixed power availability to each cabinet of just a single 15A circuit. You can not modify or change that, and if you need more power your option is to add another cabinet. You are not allowed to route power cords between cabinets so you are forever running a single circuit and 80% of your 15A circuit max. The data center was built in a different time.
A different time, but obviously not that much different... Fremont 2 is still limited to either a single 15A or a single 20A circuit per rack. They are rebuilding one of the Fremont 2 wings and turning it into a single area rather than the existing suites, so it'll be interesting to see if things are done differently there. Scott
