Power Distribution Best Practices for Server Racks

Power Distribution Best Practices for Server Racks

An efficient power distribution setup is critical for network reliability. Poor planning can lead to outages, overheating, or even equipment damage.

Key Considerations

  • Load Balancing: Distribute devices evenly across outlets.
  • Cable Length: Avoid overly long power cables to reduce clutter.
  • Surge Protection: Always use PDUs with built-in surge suppression.
  • Monitoring: Consider PDUs with current monitoring to prevent overloads.

Pro Tip:

Plan your power layout alongside your rack equipment layout to ensure balance and efficiency.
