  • How to Plan A Server Rack Installation

    Server racks are designed for one purpose and that is to provide an easy and secure way to house IT servers and their associated networking devices. Most organisations will have at least one server rack and the problem for many today is how to expand their existing installation to take advantage of new server technologies.

  • Why Airflow Management is a Hot Topic for Data Centre Racks

    Data centres and server rooms should be designed around the workload they have to support both from day-one and in the future. This is not always the case and many server room operations evolve from their initial concept, driven by changes in demands, workloads and technology. This can lead to inefficiencies and less than optimum design in terms of critical systems and resilience.

  • How Managing Server Rack Airflow Improves Energy Efficiency

    How you manage the air flow within your server racks can have a dramatic effect on the overall energy efficiency of your datacentre and specifically the server room area. The higher the temperature within the server space, the greater the need for cool air from your air conditioning system and its delivery to your server racks either via a raised access floor or general movement via fans within the room. The harder the air conditioning system must work, the greater the energy used and the higher the running costs in terms of electricity bills.

Related FAQs

  • What is an OSD function?

    OSD stands for On Screen Display. OSD is a KVM switch function that allows switching between connected servers and computers via a ‘pop-up’ menu. Using unique names for each of the connected devices makes selection easy and reduce the chances of selecting an incorrect device.

  • What is a KVM Switch?

    KVM stands for Keyboard Video Mouse. A KVM switch integrates these separate devices into an easy to install, (typically 1U high) rack mount device for installation into a serve cabinet. A KVM switch provides an easy way to monitor and control of multiple servers and computers within an IT network.

  • Can KVM switches be cascaded?

    Suitable KVM switches can be connected for scalability to increase capacity when further servers and computers are added to an IT network. Please check the individual features of each KVM switch to confirm if the device is suitable for cascading.
