High-density operation and maintenance of data center racks
This blog explores how smart rack design, airflow discipline, and cable management strategies can make density sustainable while preserving serviceability and operational calm. More than 60% of data center operators are preparing to increase the number of IT racks in their data center installations to properly handle the growing workload. 1 These expanded IT facilities are called high-density data centers, and they're becoming increasingly popular as companies rely more. Understanding rack density helps operators plan power distribution, cooling capacity, and overall data center efficiency. According to the AFCOM State of the Data Center Report, average rack density increased from 7 kW per rack in 2021 to 8.

Latest Standards for Optical Cable Fitting Operation Procedures
The NECA/FOA 301 standard provides guidelines for fiber optic installations, covering support structures, cable types, termination, and testing. In this comprehensive guide, we explore these three essential standards, shedding light on their technical scope and practical value in modern business landscapes. This standard BS EN IEC 60794-1-110:2025 Optical fibre cables is classified in these ICS categories: IEC 60794-1-110:2025 defines test procedures used to establishing uniform requirements for mechanical performance - kink. Sections are included for project management; cable handling, testing and equipment; overhead cable placement; underground cable placement; underground enclosures; bonding and grounding; cable. Fiber optic cables are primarily categorized into single-mode [^3] and multi-mode fibers.
