Secure and efficient integrated data center with cooling and routing
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11889654B2) discloses a facility designed to maintain electronic equipment at a cool temperature. The facility includes a unique configuration of cabinet clusters, each housing electronic equipment that emits heat towards a hot aisle. The cabinet clusters are arranged in a back-to-back configuration with a common cold aisle between them, allowing air flow to pass over the electronic equipment, into the hot aisle, and towards a hot air exhaust area. The facility also features a security perimeter surrounding the cabinet clusters, consisting of interior and exterior walls made of panels that allow air flow while preventing a direct line of sight from outside the perimeter.
Furthermore, the patent details the specific design of the panels used in the security perimeter, with first panels having apertures for air flow and second panels aligned to block visibility into the cabinet clusters. The perimeter is rectangular in shape and extends from the floor to the ceiling of the facility, ensuring complete coverage around the cabinet cluster. Additionally, the panels are arranged in a way that prevents any horizontal overlap between the apertures, maintaining the security and integrity of the perimeter. The facility's perimeter also includes lockable fencing to control access to the interior of the perimeter, providing an added layer of security for the electronic equipment stored within.
