Regents Emirates Pearl Hotel ... to get energy-efficient data centre.

CPI designs data centre for Abu Dhabi hotel

ABU DHABI, June 27, 2015

Chatsworth Products, Inc (CPI), a global manufacturer of IT infrastructure and equipment, said it has completed the design work for an eco-friendly data centre to be set up at the Regents Emirates Pearl Hotel in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
 
For the project, the company teamed up with Atlas Telecom, a consulting and engineering firm, and MultiNet Communications, a distributor of data centre solutions.

Regents Emirates Pearl Hotel wanted a green, energy-efficient data centre to coincide with the architectural design and sophistication, said the statement from CPI.

"The aim was to provide and design a solution that could bring energy efficiency and at the same time, protect our investment for 10-15 years. Therefore, future scalability was also important to us," remarked Nabeel Siddiqi, the project manager for Atlas Telecom.

With these goals in mind, CPI Passive Cooling Solutions was chosen to allow cooling efficiencies in the data centre to be maximised without the need for additional CRAC (computer room air-conditioning) units, in-row air -onditioners or liquid cooling solutions. This "free cooling" is achieved by properly isolating, redirecting and recycling hot exhaust air from cold supply air.

CPI's passive cooling solution comprised a cold aisle containment (CAC) solution, complete with doors and floor ceiling kits, GF-series GlobalFrame cabinets, monitored vertical power distribution units and accessories.

"It was really easy for the customer [Emirates Pearl Hotel] to evaluate the products and solutions offered in the market but working with CPI's products at an early stage, gave a better edge in the decision process," remarked Mohamed Jeelani, the managing director for MultiNet.

"CPI is well known in providing data centre solutions," he added.

Besides the UAE, the company operates offices in the US, Canada, Mexico, UK and China.-TradeArabia News Service
