DATA CENTER CABLE: FORM AND FUNCTION
When it comes to data centers, tech giants need reliable power cable that can keep pace with their processing speed and efficiency. However, the single or parallel conductors commonly used to distribute power can be cumbersome to set up and install.
A data center in the Carolinas wanted something different—a cable that better fit the company’s intricate design and confines of the server floor. ServicePlex® multiconductor twisted cable was the perfect match.
INSTALLING SERVICEPLEX ON THE SERVER FLOOR
Service Wire’s 500 Kcmil ServicePlex® twisted cable was easily run overhead in cable tray from the electrical service panels to the data center’s customized tap boxes, powering the mission critical servers.
The prefab single conductors cut down the number of wire pulls and allowed the contractor to use smaller tray, saving on labor and material costs. During installation, the ServicePlex® cabling solution used 75% fewer cable ties, requiring only one tie every six feet instead of four.
The combination of ServicePlex® and true color conductors makes for easy phase identification and creates a clean, visual design that’s perfect for both contractors and data center operation managers.
BEST CABLING SOLUTION FOR DATA CENTERS
ServicePlex® multiconductor twisted cable is the ideal choice for data center applications. Once installed, contractors are loyal to this prefab cable and its repeatable results. Its engineered advantages, colored conductors, and cost savings offer a competitive edge when bidding on new projects.
