Today, the reliance on high-quality, reliable data is more important than ever. Businesses rely on data centers for 24/7 connectivity, compliance with codes and regulations, and to ensure resiliency, performance, and more functionality, all of which allow them to work to meet customer needs. Data centers should also be highly adaptable. With today's ever-changing technology, new business opportunities and the imminent threat of competitors, enterprises must be able to seamlessly locate resources (servers, applications, storage and services) and need to move quickly across the corporate network without disruption to service.
These growing demands are forcing enterprises to revisit and reevaluate their infrastructure, whether it is modernizing existing data centers, scaling up to meet business needs, or building entirely new network architectures. The following will discuss the issues that must be considered to ensure superior performance in today's mission-critical data centers.
While the data center may be "out of sight, out of mind," it is the center of an enterprise's business and will generate a great deal of information from it. There are simple ways to improve organization, ease of use, and scalability within the heart of the enterprise network.
(1) Use wire cable baskets
Choosing a cable solution product can come in several combinations to create a variety of design configurations to meet an organization's cable management needs and provide options to scale as the business grows. A variety of customizable cable management systems are designed to meet specific business needs and specifications.
Wire cable baskets provide the flexibility to create grid systems. Wire cable baskets are constructed using high-strength steel wire welded into a mesh that is constructed into cable channels and then finished. UV additives can even be used in the powder coating process to provide additional longevity if desired. This 2 x 4-inch gauge screen ensures unobstructed data center cooling airflow and prevents the buildup of heat, dust, bacterial proliferation and other contaminants. With increased airflow through cooling cables, data center facilities will achieve greater energy efficiency, increased cooling capacity, and reduced risk.
In complex installations, it can take a while to reap the benefits of a cabling management system with wire cable baskets. The grid system will naturally be more robust as it is covered with more cables, but will require fewer bracket support locations, typically one deployed every 9 to 10 feet. This will have a domino effect. And with fewer support locations required, space in the data center facility is more optimized.
Because of the lighter weight of the wire cable baskets, installation can be done by a single staff member, which can save a lot of cost and time.
