Intelligent server racks

The name of the intelligent server racks is not unlike the “smart” in our phones or other devices we are accustomed to, and even lives up to its reputation if not surpasses it. Servers are the most significant aspect of your data center operation and having them organized and in good working order is critical to the business. However equally important to your entire setup is the way you house them. Servers need to be stacked or racked in an organized manner to enable easy maintenance, for troubleshooting and for upgrades, when required. The PDUs, all the enormous amounts of cabling the switches, and the cooling system all need to be fitted, synchronized,  and housed to keep them functioning well. Let us first at ook at the importance of the air flow technology and its effectiveness in the server enclosure you need. It is critical to the efficient functioning of the servers and all that it encloses to function at optimum efficiency. We all are aware of the heating up of working electronic equipment and this is to a much greater degree in a server. This is not the case when the contained equipment is getting overheated and close to burn out. So your air-conditioning for the server enclosure needs to be efficient to keep the equipment cool and working at optimum efficiency. 
Next let us look at the cabling and wiring contained in the cabinet; the intelligent server rack enables you to organize cables, color code them and maintain an organized cable system.  All this valuable equipment needs to stay safe and secure from any tampering or malpractice, and to that end the rack serves well, with locked front and back doors.Ideally a server rack should provide you room to  grow and to that end our server rack is well suited. Maintenance and service time should not be an ordeal that you hate to undertake. In the data centre business having connectivity both power and data is critical to the very business itself. You cannot afford any downtime, in a well organized environment every aspect of it needs to be at optimum at all times and to prevent any downtime your PDUs need to be paid special attention at the time you are investing in them. They enable you to even remotely monitor power and regulate as an when the need arises. Air flow and cooling technology is a significant aspect that you cannot overlook. Ideally a server or dozens of them functioning from even a shelf in a wall, however, but defeats the purpose of an efficient data centre. A good airflow system with the right technology will keep your systems at top efficiency and even protect them from harmful humidity settling on sensitive components. Although a simple four post rack enables you to organize the servers and cabling and even the luxury of free-flowing ambient air, it does not meet all the needs of the sophisticated technically advanced equipment you are investing in. 

With all of its advanced, sophisticated, technology that you are investing in you need to have equally advanced equipment to house this equipment. This is a rack that matches all the sophistication of today’s cutting edge technology. The airflow technology is engineered and deployed to the greatest precision by the best technology available to man. You are right if you say the servers are what matters most and there is no disputing that, however, the rack, even the kind of rack you use needs to serve you all that the sensitive equipment needs to support its optimum efficiency at all times. This ensures an efficient business delivery in your data center business and beyond.

Netracks soundproof server racks

As an IT administrative professional working around the server room or its vicinity can drive you up the wall with the constant growling of servers in your head.  Thanks to soundproof rack cabinets, that sound level can be now reduced to a to a mere whisper, and just in case you are wondering that sound is buzz and vibration  from the inbuilt cooling fans, which Acousti rack manufacturers have made a thing of the past. In an environment where you have the benefit of sound proof server racks, the only thing you will hear is your own heartbeat. 

The cooling fans earlier mentioned are of course an integral part of the servers and other electronic equipment that is housed in there. When the fans collect dust on them they are forced to work even harder and thus generate even more heat and noise. If they are cleaned on a periodic basis you will of course control that intensity of noise.  To begin with the server rack enclosure needs to be designed out of thick metal sheet and built sturdy. There should be almost no gaps that even ensuring the passage of air in or out. Soundproof enclosures are an economic alternative to hosting equipment in settings such as receptions, offices, waiting rooms and retail stores. Positioning noisy server equipment in public halls and office spaces is oftentimes unavoidable but is a constant disturbance to the workspace and a cause of increased stress level in the people working around these servers. Furthermore it might be the only place you can place the equipment, in which case you are best off getting a sound proof enclosure. Server hardware sounds will drop by 15 dB with and average enclosure but with a superior quality sound proof server cabinet 31dB of noise is cut out. The inlaid multilayer composite dampens the sound even before it can vibrate further. In doing so the enclosure still ensures the safety of the expensive IT equipment by also have an effective cooling system, inbuilt. Active cooling is critical to an acoustic rack as temperatures rise, and it is a necessity to protect other equipment like UPS switches and panels. With the sound proof enclosure you can rest assured; your equipment is safe from any tampering because you can actually lock both front and back doors. In today’s IT environment space is at a premium, so rather than creating a separate room for your servers of rack you would save a bundle on having just one sound proof enclosure that occupies only a fraction of the space as compared to a separate room. Further you can have all your equipment installed in a short while because the sound proof server enclosures are preassembled and delivered. If you were to set up a separate server room you would also be looking at increase in maintenance costs.   The enclosure design and the acoustic material that dampens sound make all the difference. On your list of priorities should be the soundproofing techniques and materials used for it, the airflow and cooling aspects for efficient function, and cable management for all the connectivity it requires. 

Getting a good sound proof server enclosure is and investment and needs careful consideration of the quality of the rack you are investing in. The material of the rack itself needs to be heavy duty sturdy steel, and the sound dampening material needs to be carefully selected. Acoustic rack cabinets can be made to a fantastic range of exterior finishing and blend in with your décor.  The greatest benefit of the multi-faceted acoustic enclosure is it fits into you décor without depriving you of valuable space, which is always at a premium.

Air-conditioned server racks cooling technology

The air-conditioned server rack air conditioner is resilient and designed to manage high discharge temperatures directly from the server into the aisle space. By handling the heat load closer to the source, the air-conditioned server rack is very efficient in both floor space and power usage and is perfect for addressing hot spots in high to medium density IT environments. Smaller air units can mount inside the cabinet for better aesthetics. However, larger units side mount, externally allowing the entire internal U space to be utilized. iRack series air conditioned server racks offer a unique condensate management system which eliminates wet floors, buckets and drain tubes. Our air conditioning, cooling solutions, server cabinets and server racks offer the latest technology to target the issues that cause you the most concern: power problems, monitoring, access and security and heat.
Our designer, wide-body computer enclosure offers a solution to managing the profusion of cables you have to deal with and its frame-within-frame design is structured to meet the mounting specifications of leading OEM manufacturers. This setting up side-to-side airflow design allows for abundant cabling space on either side as well. Network enclosures, network cabinets, and computer enclosures are designed to target the needs of your sophisticated network equipment. Protect your critical equipment, servers and other electronic equipment with our self-contained, air-conditioned server rack enclosure.  It's perfect for network and server enclosures and for identifying remote servers without the expense of creating additional room capacity.  For spot cooling or to ventilate pain areas, consider our rear door ventilation system in you server room. The room temperature or the ambient, temperature directly affects how server equipment functions when in use, the higher the ambient temperature, the greater the operating temperature unless, the server can compensate for the temperature with cooling technology. It’s no secret that high temperature is bad for computer hardware; air conditioned iRacks target just this problem directly by cooling the immediate area around the equipment. An air conditioned server rack puts less stress on the server’s cooling working parts and reduces the possibility of overheating damage and breakdown. To drop the ambient temperature it is common to set the server room’s air conditioning to a higher setting. Setting the air conditioning on full blast is not sensible or impossible when you have to store a server rack in a room full of people.  An iRack server rack is a self-contained unit so the air conditioner only has to cool the area immediately around the server equipment instead of the complete room. Air conditioned server racks by the efficient cooling technology and design cut down on your temperature-controlling costs.
Computer hardware that uses airflow functional cooling is vulnerable to harm from the elements. The systems fans which are constantly sucking air from one side of the system to the other, is sucking in everything from the atmosphere surrounding it, from microscopic dust, to moisture. Consistent exposure to moisture will damage electronic equipment, and the dust and debris filling in eventually blocks or chokes the vents for the flow of air, and thereby cooling. Subject to these conditions, prolonged exposure and choked airflow, cooling equipment becomes less effective. An iRack self-contained air conditioned server rack decreases how much damage the elements can cause. 
The 42RU configuration comes with 1200 depth and 600 & 800 widths and is made out of steel sheet. Some of its amazing features are a precision cooling unit, the battery bank and UPS, power concerns taken care of with an intelligent PDU, managing surveillance and physical security, and a smart KVM console for management of the server, also equipped with brush models and panels, blanking panels and a complete air-seal kit, for complete airflow management.
