SR EN 50600-2-5:2016

This European Standard addresses the physical security of data centres based upon the criteria and classifications for "availability", "security" and "energy efficiency enablement" within EN 50600-1. This European Standard provides designations for the data centres spaces defined in EN 50600-1. This European Standard specifies requirements and recommendations for those data centre spaces, and the systems employed within those spaces, in relation to protection against: a) unauthorized access addressing constructional, organizational and technological solutions; b) fire events igniting within data centres spaces; c) other events within or outside the data centre spaces, which would affect the defined level of protection. Safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements are outside the scope of this European Standard and are covered by other standards and regulations. However, information given in this European Standard may be of assistance in meeting these standards and regulations.
