A complete MDC module consists of four parts. When you expand you don't have to add all of them however

The site of a full 3 units MDC Stockholm
This version contains 3 modules of MDC Stockholm, and a central MDC Stockholm command module. You can of course connect an infinite number of MDC Stockholm modules, depending on your needs. The 3 module version on this site contains a total of 105 full cabinets (3 x35).

Per Lindstrand
Per Lindstrand (left) is a Swedish aeronautical engineer, pilot and adventurer. He is particularly known for his series of record-breaking trans-oceanic hot air balloon flights and, later, attempts to be the first to fly a Rozière balloon around the Earth - all with British entrepreneur, Sir Richard Branson.

Swedish steel ARMOX
Armox 500T is the world’s toughest protection plate in its hardness range. It can be used in many applications including vehicles and static structures such as buildings.

Command module (October 2011)
This is the command module now almost finished. The structure is built in a british factory. The material is also used in inflatable hangars for fighter jets.
The M1 Module from above
The MDC Stockholm Module (M1) is not a container. This is a view from above. The concept is to provide plenty of working space (also for co-location). One M1 contains 35 racks (each of 44 units height). The racks are customized and part of the cooling system.
M1 from low perspective
The MDC M1 is no container. The size for one single module is more than
twice than a ISO-40 feet container. There is plenty of space, which
makes a big difference. The M1 is also made of armoured steel, normally
used in military applications. Even if it is bigger than anything else
on the market - it can be shipped using the 40-feet standard (and
assembled at deployment site).
Inside the MDC M1 Module
The M1 is built for servers with business critical
applications. You have great flexibility, this is a normal co-location
space. However, we have also put a lot of effort to give plenty of
space for people. The M1 allows access for many different customers
(just like an old fashioned co-lo centre). If you operate a single
client, there is plenty of room for maintenance.
Deployment vision for Kista Science City, Stockholm
The location of three M1 modules, and the command module, just along the highway will make a great landmark. The inspiration comes from Starwars and the planet Endor.
