Data center white space
See Eaton's solutions for generative AI white space environments, including high-density AI racks, hot aisle containment and cable conveyance systems, busway, cable managers and rackmount PDUs.
When data centers are designed with scalability in mind, it allows for expansion initiative to be considered without the fear of future reconstruction challenges and costly system overhauls. By building scalability into the threads of white space designs, organizations can not only save time and money, but they can successfully future-proof their operations as well.
Rack density flexibility is a key factor in the design and operation of a data center's white space. Flexibility ensures that your system can easily grow to meet changing demands, whether it’s for hardware upgrades, server additions, or power and cooling adjustments. Rack density flexibility also addresses how efficiently equipment is housed within the white space. Higher rack density accommodates more hardware to be stored in the same environment, optimizing the use of available space while reducing power demands.
In this context, applicability is defined as multi-tenant capabilities. With multi-tenancy in play, a single data center can successfully support various clients, each with their own unique operational needs and resources. Multi-tenant designs offer significant cost benefits, by reducing the utilization of separate client infrastructures, while subsequently prioritizing the data safety of each individual client.
As rack density increases, effective cooling becomes crucial. Modern data centers typically employ hot/cold aisle configurations to manage the temperature in specific areas, ensuring optimal performance and preventing overheating. Learn how Eaton's cooling solutions can help you effectively manage the climate of your white space data center.
Software management relies on predictive maintenance to continuously monitor data center conditions. With the help of smart sensors, alarms, digital audits, remote administration and much more, Eaton's suite of software management solutions helps you monitor your data center with ease.

When designing within the white space, one key consideration is the electrical distribution system. To ensure maximum uptime for users, complex electrical solutions are necessary to prevent server racks from powering down. However, with the shift to higher density electrical systems, the likelihood of experiencing fault current activities within your data center increases.
A well-equipped data center is backed with reliable and redundant power systems, often connecting equipment to UPS systems and backup generators to ensure continuous power distribution. Given the high-power density, specialized electrical infrastructures are essential to meet the demands of your computing equipment. Discover how Eaton can help you effectively power your white space infrastructure and minimize disruptions.

Lifeproofing your white space data center is crucial for long-term reliability, allowing the infrastructure to adapt to future demands without compromising performance. Prioritizing robust safety precautions not only extends the lifespan of equipment but also ensures the safety of those maintaining it, while simultaneously reducing risks and ensuring operational resilience. To guarantee safety and longevity, servicing the white space must be prioritized. Proper servicing enables necessary repairs and replacements to be addressed without shutting down your entire system.
