New Data Center Standard

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the please-tell-me-what-to-do dept.

mstansberry writes to tell us that the Telecommunications Industry Association (the people who brought you the CAT standards for unshielded twisted pair cabling) recently published a 148 page document meant to standardize the design considerations for every single aspect of a data center. The standard covers everything from site selection to rack mounting methods.

  1. Finially a DC standard by jimmypw · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    OMG my dreams have been answered. Finially the method of putting in a rack nut had been standatdised.
    The method of putting in a patch cable is now an Easy-to-follow, step-by-step process.

    I'm all for standards, but not the ones that cost $250 (£138.61) and probably wont change what you already do.
