Vertiv™ SmartCabinet ID | Airflow System | Low Ambient Condenser | 3.5 kW

The Vertiv SmartCabinet ID is a rugged, all-in-one micro data center enclosure purpose-built for harsh industrial environments. Engineered to protect critical IT assets from dust, humidity, and other challenging conditions, this fully sealed cabinet combines optimized airflow with advanced cooling capabilities to deliver reliable performance where conventional data center rooms just can’t reach. With its integrated 3.5 kW cooling capacity, efficient Airflow System, and Low Ambient Condenser design, the SmartCabinet ID helps you scale your edge and remote infrastructure while maintaining tight control over energy use, security, and uptime. It is ideal for manufacturing floors, industrial facilities, and data-driven operations that demand resilience, compact form, and rapid deployment without compromising availability.

• Fully sealed protection for demanding environments: The SmartCabinet ID is built to resist dust, humidity, and other environmental hazards, safeguarding your servers, storage, and networking gear inside a compact, purpose-built enclosure. Its sealed design minimizes ingress risks and supports reliable operation in spaces where standard cabinets struggle to cope.
• Integrated Airflow System for efficient cooling: At the heart of this system is an intelligent Airflow System that ensures consistent air distribution across equipment racks. By coordinating fans, ducting, and containment strategies, it helps maximize cooling efficiency and maintain optimal thermal conditions, reducing hot spots and extending component life.
• Low Ambient Condenser for dependable performance: The Low Ambient Condenser design enables efficient heat rejection in cooler ambient conditions, enabling stable operation and reduced fan noise while supporting robust cooling capacity in variable environments. This feature contributes to a smaller temperature delta between intake and exhaust, improving overall energy efficiency.
• Scalability and modularity for evolving IT needs: The SmartCabinet ID is designed to grow with your infrastructure. Its modular approach allows you to add or reconfigure racks, cooling modules, and monitoring capabilities as your IT footprint expands, without a complete cabinet replacement. This scalability translates into lower total cost of ownership and quicker time-to-value for edge deployments.
• Remote monitoring, security, and ease of maintenance: Built-in sensors and secure remote access provide real-time visibility into temperature, humidity, power, and occupancy. Administrators can monitor performance, respond to alerts, and update configurations from a central console, reducing on-site visits and improving uptime. The enclosure’s design also emphasizes serviceability, so routine maintenance and component swaps can be performed efficiently.

How to install Vertiv SmartCabinet ID

• Plan and site readiness: Identify a stable, level surface with adequate clearance for airflow if you are deploying the cabinet in an industrial space. Ensure there is access to power, network connectivity, and monitoring interfaces. Verify compatibility with existing IT equipment and rack heights to determine the number of rack units and power distribution requirements.
• Unpack and inspect: Unbox the cabinet carefully, inspect for any transport damage, and confirm that all required components (racks, cooling modules, sensors, power distribution, and cabling) are present. Prepare the site by laying out cables and securing mounting hardware to facilitate a clean, organized installation.
• Position and level the cabinet: Move the cabinet into place using appropriate equipment and level it precisely. A level installation ensures proper airflow and reduces vibration transfer to sensitive equipment. Lock the cabinet to the floor or a suitable mounting surface as specified by the installation guidelines.
• Install IT equipment and power: Mount servers, storage, and networking devices within the cabinet in accordance with best practices for cable management and airflow. Connect power distribution units and ensure proper grounding. Route intake and exhaust cables to maintain clean airflow pathways and avoid blocking vents.
• Configure cooling and monitoring: Activate the integrated Airflow System and Low Ambient Condenser settings, following the provided configuration steps. Connect sensors to the centralized monitoring system or management console, set thresholds, and enable alerting for temperature, humidity, and enclosure access. Run a verification post-install to confirm that cooling performance, airflow, and remote monitoring functions operate as intended.
