The CariNet S-POD: Innovative Design
We have developed a new design that we call our Server-Pod. This was designed based on several issues which can be addressed in our private data centers due to the internal management of these services. This design supports all products that are sold in the open market, which gives us optimal flexibility as some product lines enter EOL "End of Life." and new designs address the need to change the computer hardware over time, or based on customers’ needs and demands.
We have created a proprietary design that allows bottom-to-top cooling using the CFM and raised floor environment to obtain the most proficient means of cooling for data center environments. The second and most important change we have made was segmenting the power supply from the actual computer processors using a passive back-plane design. Estimates state that over thirty percent of the heat generated by the server is created by the power supply. Power supplies and CPU’s have very different tolerances for heat versus performance and/or complete failure. Power supplies operate at ranges up to 50°C (equal to 122°F). Intel processors run at 30°C (equal to 86°F). As you can see, this is a dramatic difference in hardware functionality and survival. With this in mind, we are able to keep the entire pod running at a cool and consistent temperature, due to the fact that the power supplies have been removed from the cooling equation. Don’t misunderstand – the power supplies DO need to be cooled, but they running at higher temperatures which are cooled at different levels, and not affecting the CPU on the server. We are able to adjust the cooling and the amount of cooling needed for both the power supply side and the computer component side.
