Data Centres Powered by Excel provide:

High Density Design

A plethora of high-density products that have been specifically designed for data centre environments make Excel Networking an ideal solution.

Angled keystone jack panels, V-shaped panels and 0.5U panels across the copper and fibre range reduce strain on cables and maximise system longevity.
The Excel ExpressNet Solution allows for copper and fibre to be installed within the same 1U of rack space, helping to make the most of the available space and increasing design flexibility.
A 14% smaller diameter on Excel Category 6A cable makes the best use of space within a rack.
Excel Pre-Terminated Mini-Breakout and Breakout cables are perfect for DC deployment due to the miniature OD or ruggedised outer sheath design.

Performance and Speed

Our Specialist Support Services offer a range of Enbeam MTP/MPO Solutions, designed to support 40G and 100G next generation Ethernet applications, ideal for the Data Centre environment.

With Data Centre environments increasing in size, intra-DC distances are also increasing and this can create a challenge especially as data rates grow. Excel’s Singlemode fibre solutions allow Data Centres to futureproof their installations in response to this increase in speed requirements.

Measuring, Monitoring and Management

Data centres can only become efficent if they know what is happening within each rack in real-time. A large choice of Intelligent Power Distribution Units (iPDUs) offer a range of humidity and temperature monitoring features as well as individual socket management and switching capabilities. With our Intelligent PDU range, you have total flexibilty to build a solution that fits your individual requirement, with free software capable of managing up to 1600 PDUs through 50 IP addresses. With no limit to the link distance between the PDUs, your aisle configuration and deployment can be very simple.
