AFCO Systems CTO Discusses How New High Density Switch Will Improve Data Center Cooling Efficiency

In this recent magazine interview, John Consoli, AFCO Systems CTO says: “Most network switches wreak havoc in a data center, generating heat loads of 1,500kW for each switch. That is a major power and cooling challenge right there. Add to that the network switch cables running into the unit, problems hot-swapping parts because of how the cabinet is positioned, and worry about exhaust out the back of the system. This is the industry’s first active airflow management network switch enclosure.”
