Ten Cooling Solutions to Support High-Density Server Deployment |
|
|
The design of data centers and large computer rooms always includes a cooling system. Yet many IT devices are located in distributed spaces outside of the computer room in closets, branch offices, and other locations that were never designed with provisions for cooling IT equipment. The power density of IT equipment has increased over time and the result is that distributed IT equipment such as VoIP routers, switches or servers often overheat or fail prematurely due to inadequate cooling. This paper describes the science and practical application of an improved method for the specification of cooling for wiring closets.
