Hyper V Across 2 Server Rooms

Does Hyper V provide a method of running servers across 2 server room, so that if one server room is lost the VMs can start in the other server room.
Does this require a witness node installed in a 3rd location (like VMware) ?
Are there any reference designs available from the like of Dell or HP using current hardware ?

    The idea is to have 2 server rooms, if one server room fails, VMs should start in the other server room. Does Hyper V require a separate node for the Quorum ? What happens if the quorom + 1 server room is not available ? (with VMware we believe the healthy server room is shut down)
