Data centre cabinet wins award
Cannon Technologies has scooped a leading international award following the launch of its innovative Smart Space Cabinet.
The data centre cabinet, which incorporates sliding partition panels to increase cooling efficiency, won the Frost & Sullivan 2012 New Product Innovation Award for Racks and Cabinets, Europe.
Frost & Sullivan’s report into the European cabinet market highlighted the fact that on traditional cabinets, side panels often have to be completely removed to gain access, which drastically reduces the efficiency of cooling system, and subsequently uses more energy.
To address the issue, the Smart Space cabinet offers two types of sliding partition panel for racks bayed in rows – narrow partition and full depth panels. Used in pairs, the panels can slide backwards and forward to open cross cabling apertures between adjacent racks, or completely close off inter-rack access to provide a highly secure solution.
