APC's InfraStruXure is on-demand architecture for Network-critical Physical Infrastructure (NCPI). The InfraStruXure design, which integrates power, cooling, racks and management, allows the selection of standardized components to create a solution through modular and mobile configurations.
InfraStruXure architecture has a wide range of integrated components including:
This award-winning, patent-pending, modular approach provides increased availability, adaptability, speed of deployment as well as a lower total cost of ownership for IT environments. This design method parallels the streamlining of IT systems from mainframes to modular servers, leaving behind the complex electrical and mechanical approach of legacy power and cooling systems.
InfraStruXure meets the 3 key considerations of a strong NCPI:
-
Higher availability
-
Highest cooling density available (up to 20kW of cooling per rack)
-
Integrated power generation enables you to increase runtime from minutes to days
-
Redundant design of system eliminates single points of failure
-
Hot swappable modules lower mean-time-to-recovery
-
Proactive management identifies potential problems before they occur
-
Increased adaptability
-
Rack-based modular approach allows system to be easily moved
-
Scalable design lets you buy what you need now, then add power or runtime capabilities later
-
Power distribution system accomodates changing power densities, voltages, and receptacle types
-
Vendor-neutral enclosures guarantee compatibility with major IT vendors
-
Rack-based, standardized modules facilitate quick installation
-
Lower cost
-
On-demand design prevents oversizing and lowers upfront cost
-
Standardized modules minimize one-time engineering costs
-
Built-in redundancy eliminates need to buy second UPS
-
Integrated cabling and cooling eliminates need for raised floor
InfraStruXure's modular architecture can be optimally configured for installations from wiring closets and server rooms to large data centers:
 |
 |
| Wiring Closet (1-3 racks) |
Server Room (3-5 racks) |
Small Data Center (5-20 racks)
Medium Data Center (20-100 racks)
Large Data Center (100+ racks)
Built from standardized, modular components that are pre-engineered to work together, InfraStruXure enables organizations to install only what is required today, yet easily scale to meet future demands.
