Background & Challenges
Our client is a Japanese based company, providing a wide ranges of business solutions to enterprises in Hong Kong.
The client intended to relocate its office to a new location, Airside in Kai Tak, with a 12 racks scales server room set up. The key objectives of the project are to address the pain points of messy cabling, minimize equipment downtime, and achieve a seamless resumption of services after the relocation.
Solution
We proposed a standard server room solution with a glass window. This setup not only provided a visually appealing server room but also served as a showroom for their clients.
Key highlight of our solutions:
Tidy Cabling
During the relocation and setup process, attention should be given to organizing cables using best practices, such as cable trays, colour coding, and proper labelling. This could ensure easy identification, maintenance, and troubleshooting, while also enhancing the overall visual appeal of the server room.
Elegant & Professional Server Room Outlook
The server room design with a glass window could create a sophisticated and professional atmosphere to impress their clients in the reliability and quality of their services.
CRAC 2N
To maintain a stable and optimal environment for the servers, a 2N configuration CRAC units was implemented ensuring that cooling is consistently provided, minimizing the risk of overheating even in the event of a single unit failure.
Conclusion
This server room relocation project aims to address the pain points of messy cabling and equipment downtime through a standard server room solution with a glass window. The incorporation of CRAC 2N ensures a stable and optimal environment.
Giving our experience in working with the Building Management Office of Airside, we maintained excellent communication with the BMO and the project was successfully completed on time and within budget.
This case reference serves as a comprehensive framework for executing a successful server room relocation and build.
