October 23, 2006 —American Power Conversion, a global leader in power availability solutions, announced recently that Southern Ohio Medical Center (SOMC) of Portsmouth , Ohio recently deployed APC’s InfraStruXure architecture with hot-aisle containment to monitor and maintain the facility’s critical data center.
APC’s InfraStruXure architecture with hot-aisle containment utilizes In-Row air conditioning to deliver predictable cooling for medium to high density applications.
SOMC, a 232-bed regional medical center with multiple satellite clinics and urgent care centers, employs more than 2,100 full and part time personnel and 140 physicians and specialists. To support this operation, SOMC relies upon a powerful data center to store images and result data vital to patient care. To ensure that this data center operates at its most efficient levels, with zero downtime, SOMC implemented InfraStruXure architecture that fully integrates power, cooling, racks, and remote data center monitoring.
With InfraStruXure’s components, SOMC consolidated all its data center equipment in one location, saving itself time and increasing reliability and efficiency, resulting in cost savings and value addition, notes the company.
