    摘要: In computing scenarios involving an aggregation of multiple computational units into a server or computer set, many architectures may be devised to provide physical storage and logical aggregation of the computational units. Presented herein are variations of one such architecture, comprising a chassis having a set of slots, into which may be inserted a tray storing the computational units of one or more blades. Respective trays and chassis slots comprise a power connector and a network connector that are positioned to connect directly (i.e., without a cable or manual interaction) when a tray is inserted into a slot. The chassis stores a set of power supplies, and may connect each blade with a power supply, optionally providing power routing and failover capabilities. The chassis may also provide a management component that connects to and provides management capabilities of the blades of the trays, power supplies, and climate regulating components.

    摘要: Climate regulation within an enclosure (e.g., a case of a workstation or a rack or cabinet of servers) may be achieved through a climate regulator featuring several selectable climate regulator settings (e.g., a variable-speed fan array). Controllers of such climate regulators often select climate regulator settings based on current conditions inside the enclosure, such as the temperature of one or more processors operating within the enclosure. However, such control fails to account for the climate of air outside the enclosure that is drawn in to provide climate regulation, even though the climate properties of inlet air may significantly affect the effectiveness of climate regulation. Accordingly, a controller of a climate regulator may be configured to detect inlet climate properties of air directed into the enclosure, and to map the inlet climate properties (alone or in combination with other factors) to a selected climate regulator setting for the climate regulator.

    摘要: Various technologies described herein pertain to racking equipment in a data center. A modular equipment rack system can include an upper track, a lower track, a vertical support, a power and network distribution unit, and a tray. The upper track and the lower track can respectively include incrementally spaced mounting locations at which the vertical support and the power and network distribution unit can be attachable. The tray can be attachable to the vertical support and the power and network distribution unit when the vertical support is attached to the upper track at a first upper mounting location and attached to the lower track at a corresponding first lower mounting location, and the power and network distribution unit is attached to the upper track at a second upper mounting location and attached to the lower track at a corresponding second lower mounting location.

    摘要: Climate regulation within a chassis of an electronics enclosure (e.g., a workstation case or a server cabinet) may be achieved through an airflow regulated by at least one climate regulator devices (e.g., a variable-speed fan array) and a plenum configured to direct the airflow at the components of the enclosure. The enclosure may store a set of chassis, each having a dedicated plenum and climate regulator devices. However, this architecture may be less efficient than an architecture wherein adjacently mounted chassis may connect plenums (e.g., directly connecting an exhaust of one plenum with an inlet of the adjacent plenum) to unify the airflow directed through several chassis. Additionally, the chassis may feature a removable portion of the plenum wall that provides access to the plenum, and the climate regulator devices may be mounted on the removable portion, such that detachment enables withdrawal and servicing of the climate regulator devices.
