Increased deployment speed and customer satisfaction “The InfraStruxure™


installation is light-years


ahead of other data center power and air equipment installations I’ve experienced. The setup was one of the easiest I have seen and APC service was superb.”


– Sean Maskell,


President and CEO, Telehouse Canada


“Because the Schneider Electric team was on site, we benefitted from being able to bounce ideas around. Good communications between the companies helped us meet our deadlines – our customers were impressed with how quickly we were able to deliver their data centers. Working with Schneider Electric we have proven that we can deliver a working environment within eight weeks and this has helped SSE secure new business.” – Neil Hutchings Managing Director,


SSE Telecoms and Utility Solutions, U.K.


Support for high density “APC by Schneider Electric helped us solve some serious power capacity and cooling issues as we made the transition to the newer, smaller servers. They cost less to purchase but were costing us more in trying to cool and power them effectively in our old typical data center design. The APC site survey measured existing airflow, power/cooling capacity, and weight constraints; analyzed the data center’s ability to support future blade installations; and made a recommendation for an InfraStruxure configuration to support increased density deployment.” – Robert Filipovich, CTO,


High Density Hosting, Inc. USA


Integrated solution to optimize energy management The driving force behind the co-location industry’s interest in Schneider Electric solutions is an environmentally-conscious Schneider Electric data center architecture called EcoStruxure™


. This holistic solution


integrates key data center subsystems including facility power, IT room power and cooling, process and machine controls,


Sean Maskell, President and CEO, Telehouse Canada


building automation, and security. At the core of the EcoStruxure architecture is a Schneider Electric management system, StruxureWare™


for Data Centers, that allows


for increased energy efficiency, simplified operational processes, and reduced costs.


Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) measurement is designed into the StruxureWare for Data Centers software, allowing wholesale and retail co-location enterprises to monitor PUE for any given time range including hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly. As a result, co-location managers can fine tune energy efficiency and obtain optimal power and cooling system performance.


Schneider Electric can engage with co-location business projects in a number of ways: as a provider of total solutions (e.g., whole data centers, pods for new suites), as a provider of key subsystems (e.g., switchgear, UPS, building automation, air handlers), or as a provider of simple components (widely stocked and immediately available power, cooling, rack, control, and management products).
