News
In DTEL-IX, there is a special vehicle that helps maintain communication and saves Kyiv residents from the noise of a running generator during power outages — the Renault Kangoo Electrite 2001. This “grandfather” is an electric vehicle retrofitted to meet the company’s needs, functioning as a self-powered, high-capacity power bank with a 33 kWh capacity.
The main task of this vehicle is to transport electric energy from the nearest data center to the Metro MMR at 7 Leontovycha Street. The energy transfer from the vehicle to the node is quiet and unobtrusive, as the diesel generator located in the cargo area is never used to power the node.
The vehicle autonomously monitors its own battery charge, ensuring engineers can’t accidentally deplete it below the critical level needed to return to the data center for recharging. It also manages the battery charge at the MMR, safeguarding the MMR’s battery management system (BMS) arrays and preventing overcharging.
Neighbors are delighted and grateful, as it lets them sleep and go about their business without disturbance.
The vehicle, at heart, is a telecommunications worker. During its conversion to a high-capacity battery (equipped with a modern battery pack from a Chevrolet Bolt), power supply units from the uninterruptible power system of base station car1848tn were added as an OnBoard Charger.
Previously, such uninterruptible power systems were serviced by Proelectro, but now the car1848tn units are used only occasionally as chargers for batteries of various capacities and voltages. Nevertheless, these power supplies perform exceptionally well, operating in parallel, delivering power to a shared bus, and charging the battery. An interesting feature of these power units is that they can accept both direct and alternating current inputs, functioning as both an AC-to-DC charger and a DC-to-DC converter.
Under the hood, there are 12 of these power supply units, and IT Business Solution developed a custom charging controller on Arduino for them. The controller’s job is to regulate the current for each power unit during charging and protect each one from overload and overheating.
Additionally, the controller has a configuration module for the entire array of power units, enabling the use of reduced-power three-phase charging stations. The controller fits the vehicle perfectly, as if it were built in from the start, and reliably performs its function.
ITBiz, as always, is impressive! Before approaching them for this controller, we had no idea the company had such a diverse skill set.
Along with the new charging controller, the vehicle received a new Type-2 charging port from ITBiz specialists, replacing the original “square” connector. This upgrade allows it to charge at standard EV charging stations without the need for adapters.
It’s as if Renault’s engineers foresaw that their port would one day be replaced with something more modern and powerful, as they designed the charging flap to the perfect size.
And what exactly this vehicle charges and how it operates—we’ll share in the next editions of our important news.
At the beginning of 2023, DTEL-IX successfully completed the migration of its network core to a new platform. The vendor of the new equipment was chosen as Arista.
Due to the fact that we can no longer cover the costs of running the diesel generator, and we are unable to finance the operation of the DTEL-IX data center under the new electricity tariffs from suppliers, starting from September 2024 all clients using the per-unit equipment colocation service have received a significantly reduced subscription fee for the placement of their equipment. However, electricity consumption is now billed according to the actual power usage of each installed unit. Actual cooling costs are also reimbursed.
All calculations for electricity and cooling are made exclusively based on the electricity supplier’s tariff, taking into account the diesel generator's operating hours.
The relevant supplement has already been sent via Ukrposhta to each service customer.
We apologize for this necessary step. We have held out for a long time without changing the colocation fees, hoping that the power supply would stabilize and the tariff would return to its previous level.
Since 01.10.2021 BE MOBILE DC does not include 2 cross-connects into rack or cage monthly fee.
DTEL-IX is responsible for all cabling infrastructure and cross-connects in the data center and will be ready to assist its partners.
DTEL-IX completed construction and put into production a new point of presence – Metro Meet-me-room “L7”.
L7 is an isolated premise designated for placing ODF’s and optical cross-connects between them. The Metro Meet-me-room is located in the center of Kyiv by address Leontovicha st., 7.
Metro Meet-me-room L7 is a convenient and reliable place to organize optical cross-connection either with other operators and different segments of own network.
DTEL-IX вважає неприпустимим та токсичними для галузі ряд нещодавно прийнятих судових ухвал щодо «накладання арешту на права інтелектуальної власності, які виникають при використанні Telegram-каналів» або веб-ресурсів.
Некоректне та технічно безграмотне застосування деяких норм та положень Закону України «Про телекомунікації» накладає нездійсненні та абсурдні зобов’язання на вітчизняних операторів та провайдерів, що є прямим та незаконним втручанням в господарську діяльність представників галузі.
Тому DTEL-IX цілковито підтримує звернення профільних асоціацій до вищих судових інстанцій та інших державних органів влади задля отримання вичерпних пояснень позиції держави щодо втручання в господарську діяльність операторів та порушення прав користувачів мережі Інтернет.
DTEL-IX є найбільшою незалежною точкою обміну трафіком в Україні, що станом на 01.03.2021 обслуговує 237 українських та закордонних учасників. Компанія послідовно виступає за якомога мінімальне втручання держави в мережу Інтернет.
