CONSERVE POWER Oversized legacy systems waste power. Beneﬁt from power efﬁciency by right-sizing your infrastructure so that you pay only for what you need. CLOSE-COUPLED COOLING Gain thermal efﬁciency with InRow™ cooling architecture. Closely coupling the AC with the heat source reduces the distance cold air must travel (from 50 feet down to 5 feet), prevents hot exhaust air from mixing with cool air in the room, and allows more targeted precision cooling. CAPACITY MANAGEMENT Optimize management efﬁciency with intelligent, integrated capacity management software that gives you real-time data on exactly where to cool and what to power. $ 150,000 THERMAL GUARANTEE Introducing the Efﬁcient Enterprise : more power, more control, more proﬁts AGAINST HARDWARE DAMAGE TO YOUR SYSTEM WORLD’S ONLY THERMAL GUARANTEE The Efﬁcient Enterprise™ cooling is so predictable, we guarantee it. Implement an InfraStruXure® solution with hot air containment and closecoupled cooling and be eligible for our $150,000 Thermal Guarantee™ - the industry’s only heat defense policy. ™ Can your legacy system say the same? Legacy systems work ﬁne for brute-force cooling the entire room, but skyrocketing energy costs make them ﬁscally irresponsible and their fundamentally oversized design makes them incapable of meeting today’s high-density challenges. Even worse, power and cooling waste may actually prevent you from purchasing much-needed new IT equipment. Simple problem, simple solution. Cut your power and cooling costs and use the savings to buy the IT equipment you need. According to Gartner Research, 50% of all data centers built before 2002 will be obsolete by 2008 because of insufﬁcient power and cooling capabilities. Power and/or cooling issues are now the single largest problem facing data center managers. CONTAIN THE HEAT Ensure cooling efﬁciency by containing the heat and eliminating expensive temperature crosscontamination. Our Hot Aisle Containment System reduces operational expenses by as much as 50% over legacy approaches. There’s only so much power and money to go around Your service panel limits the amount of power available. Your budget limits the amount of money. You have to stretch every bit of both as far as you can. What you need is the APC Efﬁcient Enterprise™ . The APC solution offers modular scalability so that you pay only for what you use; capacity management so that you know where to put your next server; and dedicated in-row and heat-containment systems that improve cooling and thermal predictability. An Efﬁcient Enterprise earns you money through the pre-planned elimination of waste. For example, simply by switching from room- to row-oriented cooling, you will save, on average, 35% of your electrical costs. Our system reimburses you Whether you’re building a new data center or analyzing the efﬁciency of existing systems, your ﬁrst step is knowing where you stand. Take the online Enterprise Efﬁciency Audit to see how you can reap the beneﬁts of a smart, integrated, efﬁcient system: more power, more control, more proﬁts. How efficient is your enterprise system?
