Energy Efficient Servers?

Buckeye Shapeform

The U.S. has been a booming market for energy efficient products and environmental conservation efforts. Just look at the all the energy ratings we have: Energy Star (Appliances), EPA (Vehicle MPG’s), Nexus of Energy and Water for Sustainability Act of 2014 and The Kyoto Protocol (Greenhouse Gases/Carbon Credits). The data communications and computer hardware industry is no different.

Computer motherboards and server manufacturers have begun to monitor the energy use of their data centers. Microsoft and Rackable Systems have been named as a couple of top energy efficient data companies. By using smaller, replaceable, rackmounted solutions they can drastically reduce the power requirements through the use of smaller processors to operate each rackmount insert.

The importance of an updateable rackmount housing system will continue to be the trend as the data and computer network market moves forward. Having a housing case and rack mount that will accommodate these industry upgrades and changes is a sure-fire way to maintain your industry’s edge.

Buckeye Shapeform’s BMX/BMU rackmount and desktop enclosures, offers you a lightweight, durable and flexible racking system to house all your internal components. While still giving you the expansion room to fit and add on other various standard sized computer boards. This added flexibility extends rackmounts’ product life, saving thousands of dollars on redesign and updating.
