Fibernet CPDIn accordance with the Ecodesign directive (2005/32/CE EuP), Fibernet established a series of ecological requirements that it was obliged to comply with, both in PUE, as in environmental impact assessment, of efficient equipment according to manufacturers, energy or water consumption and energy growth on demand.

This CPD of more than 500 m2, is listed as TIER 3+, although it is designed to grow in features and services according to the demands of customers to offer hosting services, Hosting and advanced monitoring and critical services.
