What hidden costs lurk beneath your data centre raised floor?


An unstable mess of cables that increases your energy costs by up to 24%


Sub-fl oor cable congestion can promote energy waste. Cable congestion forms air dams beneath the raised fl oor and cable penetrations in the raised fl oor tiles allow the cold air to escape and mix with the hot air. Modeling and analysis show that the decision to place network data and power cabling to overhead cable trays can lower cooling fan and pump power consumption by up to 24%.


In addition, raised fl oor cable cutouts necessary to provide cable access to racks and PDUs result in a cold air leakage of 35%. Learn how migration to an overhead cabling approach can cut your energy bills.
