Server Thermal Footprint Examples
Advanced TCA Shelf (Telco) 2~3KW Power Consumption Per Shelf
Rack Cooling Technologies Trend Traditional IT Equipment Close Cabinet Air Cooling Modern IT Equipment Close Cabinet Air Cooling High Density IT Equipments Enclosed Cabinet Air Cooling
Cool the Cabinet - Not the Room RackCooler: 8 kw, cooling module mounted on standard racks Knurr: 10 kw Internal cooling module, closed air-circuit Ecobay: 10.5 kw/cab, Internal cooling module, closed air-circuit
Traditional Approaches 180~360 Days Increasing Power & Cooling Capacity
Plug & Play Solution Close Loop Circulation Built-in in Evaporator
Power & HVAC Distributed Process Patch Panel Smoke Detector IDS + Firewall & Router Switch KVM Switch Intrusion Detector Thermal Detector Server Remote Power Manager Voltage Detector Alarm Rack Mount UPS & Battery Built-in Cooler
Distributed Process Design Benefits Standardize & Mass Production. Higher Availability & Mobility. Lower Construction & Operation Cost. Higher Agility of Plug & Play Operation. Hot Swappable & Better MTTR. Embedded CQiCenter for 24x7 Guarding. Cooling the Cabinet Not Cooling The Room. Transparent & Graphic User Interface. Built-in in Air Conditioner to Prevent Overheat. Instead of Traditional IT Equipment Room.
Standardize Vs. Customize Standardize Customize - Modularize - Pretest Systems In The Factory - System Hot Swappable - Scalable - Lower Cost - One Time Engineering - Onsite Assembly & Test & Maintenance - Design In First Day - Difficult to Expansion - Very Expensive Standardization Will Reducing Human Error & Increasing Availability ity

CQiCenter Benefits Improve MTBF Minor problems are identified before they are service impacting Preventative actions can be scheduled when needed, not necessary driven by a schedule Improve MTTR Better remote diagnostics facilitate accurate dispatch of personnel, test equipment, replacement parts, etc. Near real time cost control (energy, lighting, dispatch, etc.) Risk Mitigation and Management Capture and manage events before they are service impacting Corrective or proactive actions can be taken Microsoft Operation Manager Integration technology leverages existing enterprise management Microsoft system investments Integration to existing infrastructure management systems with the t SNMP leverages existing infrastructure investments and maximizes the amount of data available Allows a building to be operated with the consideration of the interrelationships and interdependencies of all installed systems
