Putting IT in New Places
Expanding to New Locations
Whether it’s the factory floor, a drilling site, or a remote office, more and more organizations are facing the challenge of having to put computing, storage, and networking equipment where it has never been before.
But this type of expansion is not new to us. We can help you with everything from finding the right rack or enclosure to configuring the right backup power, distribution, and connectivity solution. We’ll help you develop a standardized, repeatable edge infrastructure system that simplifies deployment and enables efficient and cost-effective remote management.
- 400% growth in edge sites expected by 20% of Data Center 2025 survey participants
- 87% of telcos already support or are planning to support MEC sites to enable 5G (451 Research)
Case Study: A popular restaurant chain embarking on an aggressive expansion needed a new infrastructure solution to support its plans. Working with Vertiv, the company standardized on a robust, double-conversion UPS system with integrated maintenance bypass and external batteries to achieve the high availability the growing business needed.
