Case Study
DC POWER DISTRIBUTION
In a typical data center, power is delivered using alternating current (AC) that goes through multiple conversions between AC and direct current (DC). Each conversion creates inefficiencies, which wastes energy and produces heat, increasing the load on the center’s cooling system. For every 1 watt of power used to process data, an average of nearly 1 watt is required to support power conversion, and another 0.6 to 1 watt is needed to cool t
