R&MinteliPhy, an intelligent infrastructure management system from R&M,
reduces the energy consumption in the data centers by cutting down
network energy needs by as much as ten percent. Based on few of R&M
customers' experience, up to 40 percent of all switch ports simply
'disappear' over time because they are forgotten in the documentation or
their status is not correctly recorded. That is unused capital and
leads to unproductive energy consumption.
Yet
another way to boost efficiency in data centers is with the
R&MinteliPhy intelligent infrastructure management system. This
innovation from R&M lets you monitor all ports, cables, connectors
and components of a network in real time. If you have a full overview of
and total control over the physical infrastructure, you automatically
use it more efficiently. You only keep operating the capacities you
really need. Energy and material consumption can be optimized yet again.
The
R&M cabling system for data centers supports these efforts toward
energy efficiency. For example: the Cat. 6A technology from R&M
shortens the length of cable links. Users have to store fewer cables in
raised floors. They not only save on material and resources but also
improve air circulation. That saves energy. In addition, servers and
switches need less transmission power when links are short and signal
transmission is undisturbed. They do not heat up as much, so less
cooling power is required and therefore less energy. The R&M cabling
system is also optimized for 10GBASE-T low power mode, a mode
increasingly used in network cards for servers.
Unshielded
WARP cabling from R&M is another way for data centers to make
improvements. With its small cross section, this cable is 17 percent
thinner than conventional shielded installation cables. Less space is
occupied by cables and raceways, so air circulation is improved and
energy is saved. This same effect is achieved with high density products
from R&M, extremely dense distributor and connector systems.
Beyond
product advances, R&M intends to provide even more information on
ways to save energy to all employees, customers and partners in the
future. R&M already shares its expertise with customers to help them
plan data centers or structured building cabling. In the training in
our Qualified Partner Program and with our new Data Center Manual,
planners and installers learn how to apply R&M's understanding of
quality in practical ways. That includes designing a cabling system from
scratch for energy efficient operation.
