A recent study projects that future data centers will be designed to support capacities ranging from10kW to 20kW per rack. To attain these densities, data center professionals will need to implement new strategies and new cooling technologies. 42U brings the technical acumen and solutions experience to specify, sell, and support leading-edge cooling solutions for your data center.

What is High Density Cooling?

Despite many different manufacturers and designs, high-density cooling products all share a central feature. They bring the heat exchanger closer to the server rack.

The air conditioner, more compact, can take on a number of form factors:

• In-Row Cooling: Air conditioner(s) installed within a row of server racks.

• In-Rack Cooling: Air conditioner(s) installed in a closed-loop relationship with one or more server racks.

• Overhead Cooling: Air conditioner(s) installed directly above server racks.

• Rear Door Cooling: Air conditioner(s) neutralizing heat as it exits the servers.

Installation Considerations

The nuances of your computer room and your existing infrastructure will contribute to product selection. Some cooling products, for instance, require chilled water, while others use refrigerant. Nearly all of them require connections to a chilled water loop.

42U has installed these products in a variety of environments—including new construction, expansions, and forklift upgrades. We've converted office spaces into high density computer rooms and managed greenfield construction cradle to grave. Our turnkey experience ensures that your data center cooling equipment will perform to spec, as it was designed.

With data center cooling, it's important to get it right the first time. 42U is your partner in making your data center's cooling infrastructure as resilient and efficient as it can be.
