“Choosing and deploying a micro data center has never been faster or easier, and you can even experience it virtually with our new augmented reality application,” said Alex Pope, Vice President of Integrated Rack Solutions at Vertiv EMEA. “The Vertiv VRC-S is a plug-and-playthat can be delivered to your site with an integrated UPS, powering both rack cooling and backup fans, as well as distributing power to IT equipment. It also features pre-wired monitoring for easy network and utility connections. This new solution is a strategic outcome of Vertiv’s product innovation roadmap and recent R&D investments, which will progressively bring more edge-computing-.”
deployments edge such as retail stores and distribution, transportation, healthcare, and light industrial applications, the Vertiv VRC-S is available in several prefabricated standard models that can be delivered in days and installed in hours. The Vertiv VRC-S micro data center can be explored virtually with the latest Vertiv XR app, the new augmented reality-powered app that allows users to embark on an immersive exploration of all the unit's components, revealing key operating modes and functionalities not readily apparent but delivering unique end-to-end system functionality. Learn more about the AR experience that brings the Vertiv VRC-S to life on the Vertiv website and download the free Vertiv XR app from Google Play (Android) and the Apple App Store (iOS).
Micro data centers are designed to support edge computing applications —that is, anywhere critical, small-scale computing resources are needed. Unlike prefabricated modular data centers, which are typically larger, standalone facilities deployed outside main buildings or in remote locations, micro data centers—about the size of a standard IT rack—can be deployed in environments such as offices, clinics, retail stores, or other commercial or industrial spaces. The Vertiv VRC-S is pre-engineered and factory-integrated to deliver maximum reliability, efficiency, and speed of deployment.
The Vertiv™ VRC-S solution utilizes a unique hot/cold pseudo-aisle within the rack for efficient airflow and hotspot prevention. The Vertiv VRC-S cooling unit is specifically designed for Edge Computing. By using speed-controlled fans in combination with a variable-speed compressor, the unit adapts cooling capacity to the actual IT heat dissipation, minimizing power consumption. The high-efficiency Vertiv™ Liebert® GXT5 double-conversion online UPS provides power continuity to all integrated components, including the 3.5 kW cooling system and backup fans. The Vertiv™ Geist™ rPDU provides outlet-level switching power distribution and includes software to offer remote monitoring and management of the entire power and cooling system via a single IP address for easy remote monitoring, control, and predictive maintenance.
Vertiv VRC-S has a three-year warranty that covers the entire system.
