  • Can a standard server rack be used for a cold aisle

    Can a standard server rack be used for a cold aisle

    Hot aisle/cold aisle layout can still be used in server rooms without raised floors: distinct hot and cold aisles can be created by rearranging server rack locations and then reconfiguring the ductwork above. Return registers and ducts should be placed above the hot aisle. The cold aisle layout is the most common starting point in data center design. Server racks are arranged in rows so that the fronts of the racks face each other, forming a corridor known as the cold aisle. This setup achieves optimal airflow, which prevents hot and. Cold aisle containment creates an enclosed corridor in front of server cabinets, ensuring that the coldest air goes directly into equipment intakes.
