Eaton’s SmartRack modular data centres can be sized, configured, tasked and deployed rapidly

Eaton’s SmartRack modular data centres combine IT rack, cooling and service enclosures to create a performance-optimised data center solution designed for critical IT equipment with up to 150 kW of equipment load. Featuring easy-to-transport and durable modular enclosures, Eaton’s SmartRack modular data centres can be sized, configured, commissioned and deployed rapidly to meet a diverse set of requirements.

The race is on as the rapid growth of AI and edge computing increases the demand for small data centres with shorter development cycles, lower costs and optimised capacity,” said Jose L. Medina, product manager, Eaton. “While deploying new data centres has traditionally been a costly and time-intensive effort, we’ve simplified the process with innovative solution operators can have up and running in days, not weeks or months.”

Eaton’s Brightlayer Data Centres

Eaton’s SmartRack modular data centres are available in 13 standard configurations that ship pre-built with in-row cooling units pre-installed. If a custom configuration is required, Eaton’s pre-sales engineering team will provide support for those configurations.

The solution is compatible with Eaton’s SmartRack in-row precision cooling system, PDUs, single-phase and three-phase UPSs, cables, KVMs and cable management accessories as well as Eaton’s Brightlayer Data Centres suite for remote management and monitoring of cooling, UPSs, PDUs and other critical components.
