Free Up Valuable Rack U: Out-of-Rack Infrastructure for Ultimate Capacity

Free Up Valuable Rack U: Out-of-Rack Infrastructure for Ultimate Capacity

HellermannTyton’s Out of Rack connectivity solution, combined with the industry leading RapidNet pre-terminated system, helps address many of the challenges faced by the ever increasing demands on today’s data centres – reducing set up and operating costs, increasing flexibility and providing a pathway for future technology as bandwidth requirements increase.

The integration of HellermannTyton’s Out of Rack connectivity with the RapidNet system delivers three primary benefits that offer measured improvements to data centre operations:

  • Optimised Cost Management: This combined approach works to significantly ease the financial burden associated with both initial deployment and ongoing operational expenses. By streamlining installation and reducing potential complexities, it supports a more economically efficient infrastructure model.

  • Enhanced Operational Agility: The system inherently supports greater flexibility within the data centre environment. This enhanced adaptability allows operators to reconfigure and manage connectivity resources more effectively in response to evolving internal demands or external requirements.

  • Sustainable Technology Road Map: The solution is designed not just for current needs but provides a sensible path forward. It comfortably accommodates the necessary technological progression required as higher bandwidth demands inevitably emerge, securing the infrastructure for future scaling.
