Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure (NCPI)
Essential foundation
of reliability
You have a large NCPI investment
Cooling Equipment: 6%
Power Equipment: 17%
Racks: 3%
Engineering &Installation: 19%
Space: 17%
Electricity: 27%Service: 13%
Typical 10 yr lifecycle TCO from $80K to $140K per rack

Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure Challenges
• Rapid changes in IT technology
• High density
• High operating/service costs
• Increasing availability expectations
• Server consolidation
• Regulatory requirementsIn response, APC is changing the way the world designs, installs, operates, manages and maintains Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure (NCPI)

Standardisation enables improved availability
• Modularise• Pre-test systems in the
factory• Hot swappable• Pre-Integrate Power-
Cooling-Rack Management & diagnostics
• One-Time Engineering• Unique training
requirements• On-site assembly• On-site testing• Custom programming
Standardise To Eliminate
Standardisation accelerates learning at all levels, reducing human error and increasing availability

• The Design Concept is built on standardised parts that can be scaled to meet the need?
• Construction Design incorporates a “Lego Block” approach of pre-engineered components?
• Construction is mainly done in a factory instead of on-site?
• Commissioning tests pre-integrated infrastructure systems.
