Understanding Critical Infrastructure
With a focus on business continuity and resilience in data centre environments, effective infrastructure management ensures smooth operations across power, network, and server racks. Cable systems form the backbone of data centre infrastructure, ensuring reliable power delivery, seamless connectivity, and scalable growth.
Although cabling represents only a small fraction of total data centre costs, poor cable and rack selection poses major risks to business operations.
- 45% of networking outages are cable-related, while server issues account for 70% of data centre outages, often costing more than £75,000.
Investing in high-quality, compliant cable and management systems significantly reduces downtime, operational risk, and total cost of ownership.
