INVT 20FT iLegend Modular Container Data Center Empowers Customers to Overcome Space Constraints in Central America

Abstract: With the acceleration of digital transformation (the global edge computing market size grew by 27% year-on-year as of Q3 2025),  and the development of data centers in some regions is constrained by high construction costs, difficulties in obtaining land approval, and long construction periods. In view of the above problems, modular container data center arises at the historic moment, with their advantages of rapid deployment, flexible expansion, and high energy efficiency, have become the core infrastructure solution for 5G, Internet of Things, and emergency scenarios. This article will present a modular container data center solution, integrating precision air conditioners, UPS, power distribution systems, and smart busbar, etc. It addresses the pain point of customers who do not have sufficient building space but still want to build a data center.

Keywords: Container data center, precision air conditioner, smart busbar.

 Overview

iLegend series container data center adopts all-in-one design and factory prefabricated installation, integrating power supply and distribution system, air conditioner system, cabinet system, closed aisle system, monitoring system and fire protection system in a container, forming a unit that can operate independently and be monitored and managed by eSite monitoring system, meeting the outdoor data center construction needs of rapid deployment and agile delivery.
Project introduction
INVT's partner, have a project requirement in central America for an outdoor container data center to provide information storage services for the office building where it is located. The client require 2N redundancy power distribution architecture with scalability and flexibility and 2N redundancy precision air conditioner, isolated cable tray for power cable and network signal cable, single row design 20FT container data center solution.

Difficulty, solution and advantages
1. Difficulty: Without enough building space, how can the client build a data center?
Solution: INVT provide iLegend series modular container data center solution, no need to build a traditional building to contain the data center, save more deployment time and construction costs for the client. Adopt all-in-one design and factory prefabricated installation, when client receive the container, can achieve plug and play, significantly reduce the commissioning time for the client.

2. Difficulty: How can we achieve a 2N redundant air conditioner solution and a 2N redundant power distribution architecture with scalability?
Solution: INVT adopts a single row design and enclosed hot aisle design in the container data center, select and apply 2pcs VCR040/VCP056 to form a 2N redundancy. Base on flexibility and scalability, we recommend client select the smart busbar solution which is relatively rare apply in the container data center, enhanced the flexibility of the PDU wiring and the possibility for future expansion. 

3. Difficulty: How to solve the problem of insufficient maintenance space caused by the single-row design?
Solution: INVT adopts customized bottom slide rails for the cabinets. On-site, they can be flexibly moved according to actual maintenance requirements. The maximum moving distance can reach 200mm, providing sufficient operation space for equipment maintenance. Moreover, the position of the maintenance door has been carefully designed to facilitate maintenance personnel to quickly and conveniently carry out the maintenance and repair work of the air conditioner.
Summary
INVT is the first time to adopt a design that combines intelligent busbar solution and cabinet slide rails with container data center. This design has effectively attracted potential customers who are highly innovative and focused on product differentiation. It has demonstrated to the customers the convenience and reliability brought by container data center, thus winning the favor and trust of the end customers.
