Effective Cooling Strategies For Today's Datacenters

Excess heat in a server room can adversely affect equipment performance and shorten its lifespan. Several tactics can help you meet your datacenter cooling challenges:

1. Select The Right Rack And Accessories-Improve cooling by selecting a rack with intelligent and space-efficient design features like built-in cable management channels and fully perforated doors and top panels.

2. Aim for Energy Efficiency-Reduce energy consumption and resulting heat loads by conducting an equipment audit, using energy-efficient power supplies, and cleaning up clutter under your datacenter floor.

3. Deploy Liquid Cooling Units-Raise your cooling capacity by using Liquid Cooling Packages, a valuable alternative to ambient air cooling.

4. Use Environmental Monitoring- Proactively protect mission-critical applications by monitoring rack and server room temperature, including hot spots, at any time and from anywhere.
