SynCells SmartCells for IT and technology infrastructure applications are based on the open compute platform (OCP) form factor. OCP nodes are trusted by the largest data center operators in the world and built for high performance and low cost. From data centers to smart buildings, SynCells SmartCells-IT always deliver the functionality and performance required. SmartCells-IT include compute, storage and network modules, all in a patented liquid-cooled package and standardized format, for quick plug-and-play installation and maintenance tasks.
From a smart building perspective, power over Ethernet (PoE) is gaining traction for LED lighting and other higher-powered applications. However, sufficient power cannot be delivered to all ports simultaneously to support such applications, due to limited cooling capacities of the chipset when using air. With SmartCells, SynCells can deliver the necessary power and cool the electronics to support all ports simultaneously, effectively doubling the power density compared to other major switch brands. Since SynCells’ SmartCells don’t require air circulation, they can be deployed in tighter spaces and more adverse conditions than traditional IT solutions.
In a conventional building design, the IT systems are often deployed piecemeal, with systems provided by the vendor who needs to deliver a service such as video surveillance. As a result, there’s little guidance on what IT infrastructure should be used — and cost optimization, performance and reliability can suffer. With the SynCells platform, we work with the vendors and provide the appropriate hardware that meets their performance needs. We can also monitor and manage the infrastructure, ensuring your cybersecurity and reliability concerns are addressed. Even better, from an owner or developer perspective, SynCells can deliver the entire solution, including hardware and services, in a platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS) strategy, avoiding the upfront capital expenditure.
