TAS ENERGY
The TAS Edge Data Center The TAS Edge Data Center was developed to deliver the future for Edge computing . Mann ’ s team focused on three major elements : power , cooling , and IT rack capacity . “ We looked at power input and distribution , different approaches to cooling and the possibility for capacity options in the module ,” he explains . “ We ’ ve aimed for a design that allows these three elements to be individually modified off the shelf to match customer requirements without having to redesign the entire product to meet specific customer requirements . At the same time , we ’ re avoiding under or overprovisioning of the power or cooling .”
“ We ' re also utilising different types of clean technology for that cooling ,” adds Mann . “ At launch we have a chilled water and DX version , and we will be following up with adiabatic . We ' re also working with cold plate technology for higher density applications . What ' s great about this approach is that you can take the same infrastructure we ’ ve developed , put in say the cold plate technology for CPUs and GPUs , taking away ~ 70 % of the heat generated , then cooling the rest of the IT components with the airflow that is already available . It ’ s designed to be an adaptable product .”
