These are large data centers in which different entities can rent servers or space to install their own equipment. The security requirement in these data centers is especially high.
This solution enables data management to be wholly outsourced, with the assurance of optimum continuity of service. For this type of data center, Legrand can work with you at the project development stage.

Solutions for big sized datacenter
Aisle containment
The Free Standing Corridor is a fully self-supporting aisle containment system thanks to which closed-off aisles can be created independently from the IT racks, which is not usual in the data center market. Its modular design consists of a self-supporting construction, wall panels, roof panels and sliding doors. Immediately after implementation, the energy efficiency reached is the same as that of a regular aisle containment system supported by IT racks. The Free Standing Corridor offers corporate and commercial data centers a cost-efficient “pay-as-you-grow” solution in order to create energy efficiency at low initial investments (CAPEX).
Intelligent PDUs
Raritan’s offer comprises 230V and 415V models, in hundreds of different configurations, including per socket monitoring that help to improve power usage effectiveness of data centers. Remote and “at-the-rack” data collection of current (amps), voltage, power (kVA, kW), and energy consumption (kWh) allows you to:
- benchmark entire racks and individual IT equipment as to identify inefficient IT devices and ghost servers,
- identify when more power is going to a rack than needed and deploy “stranded power” elsewhere,
- drive energy-efficient behavior and support sustainability initiatives.
Power data obtained from PDUs can help you calculate PUE at a granular level, allowing for Category 3 PUE reporting. Intelligent PDUs send power-usage data over the network to a DCIM solution such as Power IQ® to automatically calculate PUE. Total power used in each rack can be compared to the building’s overall power usage to create the foundation for PUE calculation.
HV/LV Green T.HE transformers
These provide high energy efficiency and a lower environmental footprint (fewer pollutants). An average of 3 times fewer losses is observed with these high efficiency transformers than with a standard transformer.
The Legrand Green T.HE offer gives you access to classes AoBk, AoAk and AAoAk solutions. The classification according to standard EN 50588-1 stipulates that the transformer with the lowest losses will be class AAoAk.
MTP/MPO optical fiber solutions
To ensure the 40/100 Gbps and Fiber Channel protocols are supported, hence opt for LCS³ high speed optical fiber solutions, among which our newest MTP connectors and cassettes! They make for a perfect connection in just a few seconds, giving a link providing excellent performance levels, from the patch panel through to the workstation!
These solutions can be used to create wiring architectures for the LAN and SAN infrastructures of data centers with OM3 and OM4 performance levels, in multimode and OS1/OS2 in single-mode.
Mighty Mo 20 connectivity rack
As for LCS³ Mighty Mo 20 4-post connectivity racks, they provide an economical mounting platform for switches and servers, and the adjustable racks allow all 4 mounting rails to be adjusted even after the rack has been fastened to the floor. Front and rear waterfalls allow for equipment patching and server patching.
