Designer: This template is to assist in the design of a new Data Center and features the concepts

presented in Build the Best Data Center Facility for Your Business, by Douglas Alger.

The template is written for a company proect manager who needs to present Data

Center design guidelines to a contracted architectural firm. !t is assumed that the

architectural firm will, in turn, create construction documents to be re"iewed by the

appropriate municipal planning department and ultimately followed by the proect#scontractors$electricians, mechanical contractors, cabling "endors, and so on.

%otes to the designer introduce each section of the document. %otes are also placed at

&ey paragraphs to clarify re'uirements or e(plain what information must be entered.

)ariables in this document$data points you must enter$are highlighted in teal. Cable

counts and other 'uantities ha"e been suggested where appropriate. !n other instances,

"ariables are represented by a description *for e(ample., Your Company+ or symbol *for

e(ample, +.

-emo"e all italicied notes and color/coding after you fill out the template.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Designer: The sie and amount of your wire management is dri"en by how many patch cords must

be accommodated, particularly copper cabling. *Fiber patch cords are thinner than

copper and therefore ha"e less effect on wire management.+ !f your Data Center willha"e only 35 ports of copper cabling to each cabinet location, 7/ and =/inch *3?/ and 56/

centimeter+ "ertical wire managers are probably fine. !f your Data Center has 8= portsto each cabinet location, consider =/ and 35/inch *56/ and 46/centimeter+ "ertical wire

management.

The sie of the horiontal wire managers can generally be matched to whate"er copper

patch panels you use. For e(ample, if the patch panels in your networ& cabinets house 8=

copper ports in 4.? inches *=.@ centimeters+ of space, use 4.?/inch *=.@/centimeter+ wire

managers to route cables so they can plug in to those ac&s.

Designer: 2ection 4 co"ers electrical infrastructure within the Data Center. *2tandby electrical

infrastructure is outlined in 2ection 8.+ As written, the section calls for power to run by

way of indi"idual electrical conduits from 1ower Distribution nits to remote circuitpanel boards and then to indi"idual cabinet locations. Adust this language as needed for

the electrical infrastructure you want installed in your Data Center.

intended to accommodate a ser"er en"ironment with or without hot and cold aisles.

*!nformation about hot and cold aisles is pro"ided in Chapter =, 9eeping !t Cool.;+

Be aware that the Data Center depicted in this template#s sample figures does not ha"ehot and cold aisles. 2er"er rows would need to alternate directions. The infrastructure

feeding those rows would additionally need to be routed so as to always be on the bac&

Designer: For the con"enience of your cabling contractor, you may want to pro"ide the specific

cabinet locations where structured cabling should terminate. These "ariable are

represented by YY. ore specific details, down to what ports terminate in whichpanels, are shown in accompanying Figures 36/37.

!f you want to color code your Data Center, specify colors for all ports and housings that

are installed. The template#s default language calls for blac& ac&s for connections to

networ& cabinets, white ac&s for connections to ser"er cabinet locations, and "iolet ac&s

for connections that e(it the Data Center. %o colors are specified for the housings.

Designer: The drawings that follow are sample details useful for illustrating a Data Center design.

Figure 3$Cabinet Location Plan$This depicts a Data Center#s o"erall layout. The drawing is usefulfor showing spacing and orientation of ser"er rows and maor infrastructure.

Figure 5$Floor Tile Location Plan$The raised floor grid, including floor tile cutout dimensions and

the placement of perforated tiles.

Figure 4$Electrical Location Plan$The types and locations of all electrical infrastructure within the

Data Center. Fi"e e(amples of electrical receptacles are listed in the symbol &ey.

Figure 8$Data Routing Diagram$1aths for structured cabling. This illustration not only con"eys the

distributed cabling hierarchy concept, but can also guide "endors so that cabling doesn#t criss/cross and

ris& tangling.

Figure ?$Under-Floor Power and Cable Detail$This detail shows the placement of infrastructure

under each ser"er row, including routing data cabling and electrical conduits along separate but parallelpaths.
