Edge rack

An edge rack provides you with the basis for high availability and secure data management of your IT hardware. It was developed for use at the edge of networks, where secure and reliable data access is required.

Edge racks are typically used in business environments and by companies that require higher security standards for their data. These include, for instance, subsidiaries, industrial companies, numerous business sectors and medical practices. Real-time applications can also be implemented with the modern technology from SCHÄFER IT-Systems.

Benefit from modern IT infrastructure

An edge rack consists of one or several cabinet solutions. Various devices such as servers, switches and routers can be housed in it. The edge rack enables companies to adapt their IT infrastructure to specific business requirements.

They offer greater flexibility in setting up and configuring equipment than conventional racks of ordinary data centres. The products from SCHÄFER IT-Systems work energy-efficiently and are oriented towards green IT. Our cooling systems from the iQdata Cooling brand work with environmentally friendly water instead of refrigerants that are harmful to the environment.

Areas of application for the cabinet systems

For applications that require secure and reliable access to data, edge racks are the ideal choice. For example, financial information, medical records or laboratory results are managed efficiently and securely by an edge computing network.

They can also be used in larger organisations. Especially where multiple departments or further users need access to the same resources. 

Edge rack solutions enable secure, decentralised setup of all IT resources and improve management efficiency.

Single-cabinet or multi-cabinet system?

Single-cabinet and multi-cabinet systems are just some of the edge rack solutions from SCHÄFER IT-Systems.

The multi-cabinet solution gives you more flexibility for larger installations that require more scalability and redundancy. Our single-cabinet system is ideal for smaller installations with limited space requiring high availability. 

Both solutions offer features such as a fail-safe power supply and different rack units. The hot and cold zones of the cooling systems are separated. The extinguishing systemaccess control and comprehensive IT monitoring are also part of the system.

We will be happy to advise you on whether a single-cabinet or multi-cabinet solution is the right choice. It is important to consider the size of your installation, the level of security and the availability.

In terms of scalability and redundancy features, a multi-cabinet system may be the better option. Larger installations with multiple users and departments can benefit from this. 

A single rack system may be a better choice if space is limited on site. SCHÄFER IT-Systems specialises in finding the right edge rack solution for your requirements

Regardless of which edge rack solution you choose, SCHÄFER IT-Systems provides products. The IT racks of the iQdata brand operate reliably, scalably and sustainably.
