Schroff Product Platforms plus Standard Component Sets

'Customized Standard'

for greater flexibility in data center infrastructure design

__________________________________________________________________________

STRAUBENHARDT – An off-the-shelf solution or customized development? This question often

presents itself during the data center design and development phase. Standard solutions based on the

cookie-cutter principle are delivered quickly and are usually less costly than customized solutions. This

approach often lacks the flexibility needed to meet the needs and requirements of the data center

professional. Customers make do with unwanted features and without some of the functionality they

need. Even minor modifications are only achieved at great expense. Customized solutions,

principle has proven to be successful in many large-scale projects, for example for major banks and

car manufacturers. Smaller businesses with limited resources and which previously relied on off-the-

shelf solutions benefit as well. Pentair's 'customized standard solutions' are the alternative for

designing a data center to meet exacting requirements.

The customized standard solutions from Pentair are realized using Schroff product platforms such as

the Varistar server cabinets, and include cooling and a wide palette of off-the-shelf expansion and

accessory components. Customized solutions from standard parts, are assembled quickly and at

reasonable cost. The modular approach assures flexibility and adaptability and more substantial

modifications can be achieved quickly, simply and cost efficiently. Further information is available at
