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

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

» Results • Increased cooling efficiency

- Stops mixing - Eliminates hot spots

• Eliminates hot aisle

Intelligent Power Management

» Increase data center efficiency and reduce costs•Web-based user interface•Monitor and understand power consumption•Analyze data to better improve operations

- Report generation and graphing» Reduce risk of downtime•Customizable alarms and notifications

- E-mail, SNMP, Syslog, audible alarms•Automatic load shedding•Remote re-booting

Remote Monitoring

» Increase data center efficiency•Web-based user interface•Data measurement, collection

and reporting» Reduce downtime•Alerting and notification—

audible, e-mail, SNMP, fax, etc.

» Security•Remote monitoring•Notification
