## Notice

The University houses two data centres on site, one originally constructed in the 1970's (data centre 1 ) and the other constructed 2010 (data centre 2). The project "replacement UPS" refers to both data centres. The existing UPS systems currently installed in each data centre are approaching end of life and require replacement. Batteries in both data centres have recently been replaced (2018). The university is looking at replacing both UPS systems with new units offering future expansion and providing a resilient system design.
