Vertiv SmartCabinet 2M micro data centre

Vertiv has launched the Vertiv SmartCabinet 2M, a self-contained micro data centre designed for edge computing applications. The product is designed for warehousing, education, government and retail customers looking for smaller, more eco-friendly micro data centres.

The SmartCabinet 2M leverages Vertiv’s original SmartCabinet strategy of providing a complete data centre in a compact and easily installed package, but with less capacity, shorter rack and less depth, meeting the requirements of smaller edge sites. The enclosed system has a locking door, 1500 W of cooling and 17 U of usable IT space. It also includes the Vertiv Liebert GXT5 uninterruptible power supply system (UPS) and a power management unit.

The SmartCabinet 2M comes equipped with enhanced security feature options including video surveillance. Companies can also adjust the LED lighting around the data centre to suit their own branding, given in many cases it will be in sight of staff and customers.
