Evolution of IT Equipment
» Movement towards high density• Enclosure power consumption increasing• From 2 kW to 35+ kW
» Impact on IT infrastructure• IT enclosures•Power distribution units (PDUs)•Remote monitoring•Security
Company Confidential2
Strategic Approach for IT Enclosures
» Large variance in enclosure power consumption
• 2 kW – 35 kW» Cooling and airflow become increasingly important • Increased power density = increased heat
» Need custom cabinets for specific applications

Data Center Design
Company Confidential4
Standard Hot Aisle / Cold Aisle DesignCold air through vented tiles – hot air back to CRAC unit
Data Center Design
Cold Aisle with Containment and Chimney ExhaustHot air back to CRAC unit via a chimney into the plenum

» Results • Increased cooling efficiency
- Stops mixing - Eliminates hot spots
• Eliminates hot aisle
Data Center Design
» Direct cold air with chimney exhaust•Cold air forced into cabinet•Hot air directly back to CRAC unit
» Results • Increased cooling efficiency •Eliminates hot and cold aisle
Company Confidential7
Data Center Design
• Directs air to the front of the cabinet
