This paper describes the principles for achieving power and cooling capacity management. 

High-density rack-mounted servers reduce space, cooling, networking, cabling, and management costs - as well as total power consumption - compared to low-density configurations having far few servers per rack. 

Long term data center or network room capacity planning may seem impossible in the face of evolving IT technology and business requirements. This paper shows a simple and effective way to develop a capacity plan for a data center or network room. 

Read this paper to learn the history and current application of RS-232, a standard that refers to two classes of devices: Data Terminal Equipment and Data Circuit Terminating Equipment. 

With some innovative engineering, a data center can be retrofitted to meet today's needs. Check out this brief video to see how one high density computer center was converted to maximize power delivery and air cooling. 

While energy consumption of overall data center operations and server-related equipment is generally understood, the story is quite different when it comes to storage systems. This paper offers practical advice on how to measure storage system efficiency and compares the efficiency numbers of several common storage solutions. 

To protect your company's assets and reputation, Dell's Asset Recovery Services help ensure that sensitive information does not fall into the wrong hands while also promoting environmental stewardship through our efforts to achieve zero-landfill and zero-export policies. 

This paper covers projects involving new construction or upgrades to the data center’s physical infrastructure - the power, cooling, and other physical systems that house and protect the data center’s IT equipment. 

Frequently, organizations that operate contact centers are faced with the challenge of working with inadequate telephony equipment. Frustrations range from having to get a few more years out of telephone equipment to having disparate systems. Read this white paper to learn about how contact centers can resolve these telecommunications complexities. 

This paper examines a new approach to data center cooling known as "phase change" or "two-phase" low-pressure pumped refrigerant cooling. It details the advantages of this approach over traditional computer room air conditioning (CRAC) methods, and it identifies the specific benefits. 

Specifying data center density has yet to conform to an established standard within the industry. This paper describes the science and practical application of an improved method for the specification of power and cooling infrastructure for data centers. 

This white paper details how self-contained high-density zones enable a reliable operation of high-density equipment without impacting a low-density data center.
