The Biggest Opportunity for Data Center Energy Savings

Passive air cooling can successfully dissipate as much heat as can be generated by commercial servers that can actually fit in a 42-45 U cabinet, and in fact more than most close-coupled and liquid-cooled solutions. In addition, air-cooled solutions that rely on complete isolation between supply air and return air are more efficient than most close-coupled systems and provide access to lower data center cooling costs.

Cable Management Solutions for Rack Systems

Chatsworth Products, Inc. (CPI) Cable Management Solutions support and protect cables to help maintain cable performance. This guide will help you understand how to specify the right Cable Management Solution for CPI Rack Systems including freestanding two-post and four-post racks.

Wireless Enclosure Design and Installation Guide

Proper site design, product selection and installation are critical to the performance of the wireless network. Wireless enclosures are also an important part of the wireless network. Enclosures for wireless access points add physical security to your WLAN and provide environmental and physical protection for the wireless access point and the associated network connection.

The Effects of Doors on Airflow and Equipment Cooling in IT Equipment Cabinets

Testing in both a controlled environment and in a live data center confirms The Industrial Perforators Association’s data that there is no meaningful airflow improvement to be achieved beyond 63% open perforated server cabinet doors.

Ducted Exhaust Cabinet – Managing Exhaust Airflow Beyond Hot Aisle/Cold Aisle

CPI’s Ducted Exhaust Cabinet uses Managed Exhaust Airflow to deliver superior thermal management by allowing the equipment to draw the required volume of air through the cabinet, and then directing the exhaust out of and away from the cabinet, completely eliminating the problem of air recirculation.

Supporting Cisco® Switches In Hot Aisle/Cold Aisle Data Centers

CPI’s N-Series TeraFrame® Network Cabinet uses managed exhaust airflow to deliver superior thermal management by re-directing the right-to-left airflow of switching equipment to a front-to-back airflow pattern that fits into hot aisle/cold aisle data centers. The N-Series TeraFrame Cabinet also utilizes a recessed frame design that provides the space required to support the high-density cabling environment created by the switch as well as superior airflow characteristics. This simple yet effective approach delivers effective cable management and enhanced cooling of equipment resulting in a more efficient use of available cool air and better overall heat transfer away from equipment.

CPI Passive Cooling® Solutions: A Path to Higher Density and Lower Cost

CPI Passive Cooling® Solutions have performed adequately in active data centers up to 23 kW per cabinet and have been tested successfully up to 32 kW. This performance level is achieved through the application of sound, but relatively elementary physics principles. Not only does this solution set provide a viable option for cooling higher densities, but it removes any uncertainties associated with potential points of failure, and provides the basis for being able to take advantage of significant energy savings associated with higher HVAC efficiencies and access to greater economizer hours.
