Elevate the availability of your network closet

More than ever before, network closets are housing an increased amount of critical IT infrastructure, making it essential to ensure their ongoing reliability and availability. We can help you do so—efficiently and cost-effectively.

Enhance system uptime and network security

Today’s network closets come in a variety of shapes, sizes and formats, from edge computing to intermediate distribution frame (IDF) and main distribution frame (MDF) spaces. Yet regardless of a closet’s specifications, an effective design must incorporate proper organization, protection and management. This is especially important as IT professionals address the challenges of delivering always-on technology in the wake of constrained resources and increased complexity. Selecting the optimal rack and power infrastructure, and pairing it with management hardware and software, enables you to keep operations flowing safely, securely and cost-effectively.

Overcome space constraints and optimize energy efficiency

Whether building out a new data closet or modifying an existing one, organization, rack hygiene and sustainability are paramount to efficient operations. Eaton racks and cable management products enable you to store, power, manage and cool critical IT equipment—increasing uptime and reliability, simplifying ongoing maintenance and maximizing footprint. Even more, we make it easier to create a more sustainable network closet with solutions backed with Eaton EnergyAware technology, which enables  better energy efficiency and optimizes power costs. By organizing and decluttering the tight confines of your network closet with the right products, you can transform it into a high-performing, sustainable IT system.  

Safeguard systems with backup power solutions

Incorporating Eaton UPSs and rack PDUs to protect against outages, surges and voltage conditions is integral to a strategically designed network closet. Our products are optimized to safeguard the IT equipment housed within a network closet, with features such as scalability, redundancy, built-in cybersecurity and long-lasting lithium-ion batteries. Even more, gain the tools needed to monitor and manage power devices in both physical and virtual environments with the Brightlayer Data Centers suite of data center monitoring software.

Manage assets even in remote environments

Managing the equipment inside network closets has become increasingly complex across today’s business landscape. From supporting the explosion of remote workers to overseeing edge computing environments, companies increasingly lack on-site IT personnel to troubleshoot network issues. Whether operating remotely or at the rack level, our solutions increase resiliency and reliability inside these closets—enabling you to view your power network and all connected equipment, monitor temperature and humidity, receive instant alerts, and initiate a virtual machine move or graceful shutdown in the event of an extended outage.
