Black Box has appointed Matt Easton as Vice President of Data Center Solutions and outlined progression of the Western Region Training Facility in Chandler, Arizona, which has become a state-of-the-art Hyperscale Data Center of Excellence catering to both hyperscale and enterprise data centers.
Completed in late 2022, the Chandler facility joins a growing network of Black Box’s Center of Excellence offices – which includes locations in Montgomery, Alabama; Sterling, Virginia; Austin, Texas; Plano, Texas; and San Antonio – further reinforcing Black Box’s commitment to advancing data center mobilization, pre-con services and construction.
Black Box is committed to expanding its data center practice to provide cutting-edge solutions and expertise for the critical and evolving data market
“Our new Hyperscale Data Center of Excellence, along with our participation in the 7×24 Exchange Summit, focuses on developing the talent and infrastructure needed to meet the growing demands. By combining cutting-edge facilities with strategic workforce development, we ensure that Black Box remains at the forefront of hyperscale and enterprise solutions, ready to support our clients’ evolving needs in this rapidly expanding sector,” said Easton.
Before joining Black Box, Easton served as the Vice President of Operations at E2 Optics, where he led teams in project controls, estimation, talent acquisition, DAS/wireless and large-scale telecommunications construction.
Black Box said Easton – with over 27 years of experience in integrated technology solutions – was a “valuable addition” to the organization.
