SmartMod Infrastructure

One of the major challenges of the conventional data centre and telecom core site is making sure that the facility installed will fulfil its requirements a decade or more down the line. Predicting these requirements so far in the future is a difficult feat to undertake and is never an exact science. Rather than attempting to guess your future needs, a prefabricated, integrated modular solution, provides a structure that meets real and present requirements in the short and medium-term, while offering the capacity for future scalability and adaption. The process to manufacture and test the entire facility offsite in modules before shipping and then assembling those modules onsite ensure a best-in-class, tightly put together facility deployed faster and at lower cost. The Vertiv™ SmartMod™ provides for IT deployments between 2 and 14 racks with 100 kW or less, SmartMod offers a simple way to install capacity in a fraction of the time.

Benefits

• Speed of deployment, reduced construction work and minimized site risks as design, assembly and pre-testing is made in a factory-controlled environment
• Lower initial CapEx than traditional construction as there is no need to over-provision
• Increased productivity, consistent high quality, reduced delays and cost overruns with standardized fabrication processes
• OpEx savings and maximized ROI with best-in-class, tightly integrated facility meeting the highest standards of availability and efficiency

Features

• All subsystems are integrated in a controlled, factory environment with external cabling & piping to be joined on site
• Fabrication and transportation can be done in parallel with site preparation, civil works, and construction, cutting months off the time-to-deploy
• Scalability allows for granular and incremental upgrades with the opportunity to delay some portion of the capital investment until additional capacity is needed
• New technologies can be applied with each extension
• Vertiv’s innovative design enables smaller modular constructions (lower CapEx) and higher facility utilization (lower PUE and OpEx)
• First class engineering and project management expertise coupled with industry leading products
