Schneider Electric Introduces Data Center Module For Mobile Edge Applications
The solution features prefabricated, self-contained solution with integrated power, cooling, and IT components for rapid deployment.
Schneider Electric has released its Edge Module, a new prefabricated data center solution designed to empower telco customers to effectively operate, manage, monitor, control and administer distributed data center environments. Schneider Electric’s Edge Module is the latest addition to its portfolio of prefabricated solutions for the planning, designing and building of data centers.
Today’s digital world continues to expand with the growing implementation of technologies like 5G, smart homes and IoT enabled devices, autonomous cars and drone delivery programs, creating a need for higher processing power, closer to the end user, that meets the demand for staggering bandwidth and allow critical decisions to be made at the source. With an ever-growing number of cell tower sites, the telco industry is positioned to define the edge environment that supports the demand of these technologies. However, while edge computing is poised to address these challenges, the edge computing endpoints themselves, which are often distributed and remote, must also be managed.
