The EDGE-3 soundproof MDC is an exceptional range of enclosures combining unprecedented noise reduction and air-cooled thermal performance. The EDGE-3 is a superior alternative to a costly data and communications room by allowing the deployment of servers and network equipment directly in the office, requiring less than 1 square metre of valuable floor space. It will enable localised on-premise computing in populated or more sensitive locations – especially where server noise might be a distraction or breach ECC working noise guidelines.

The EDGE-3 will reduce equipment noise up to 28.5 dBA (99.9%) of IT noise while providing a thermal load capacity of 11.5kW.

The EDGE-3 is an excellent all-round 19" data, comms and server cabinet, with adjustable front and rear mounting angles and six cable entry ports. Reducing energy bills is always desirable, but expecting a standard server cabinet to assist is virtually impossible. That is where the EDGE-3 is uniquely different in design. The two EC fans in the rear doors maintain sufficient airflow throughout the enclosure, providing the required level of thermal dissipation while optimising the level of 'ambient' background noise the cabinet generates and minimising power expenditure; To ensure maximum energy efficiency, it is controlled with variable fan speed controls and temperature sensors.

An onboard environmental and optional security monitoring system provides peace of mind. Real-time alarms and alerts, which can be viewed via the WebUI, will notify authorised personnel via email alarms relating to any issues with the cabinet. You know what's happening and can monitor who's coming and going 24/7. Advanced configurations are available for enhanced levels of security and redundancy.

The LCD touch display on the cabinet doors will change colour if the cabinet status changes, alerts (amber) or alarm (red). It will remain blue when working correctly. Touching the display will show environmental data from each of the temperature/humidity sensors or, in the event of an alarm, what that alarm is.
