Case Study: Server Room Infrastructure Upgrade

The project: ACT360 completed a significant project for Airdex in November 2024, with the goal of upgrading their server room infrastructure. The main aim was to improve the efficiency, accessibility, and security of Airdex's server operations. This included a total revamp of the existing setup, introducing newer technology and organizational improvements to meet future scalability needs.

Objective:
The general objective of the server room remodeling was to streamline Airdex's technology infrastructure so that it would have the capacity for increased operational efficiency and future growth. The project centered on significant installations and upgrades that would not only optimize space and airflow but also boost network performance and security.

Case Study: Server Room Infrastructure Upgrade

Key Tasks and Solutions

Full-Size Rack Installation: A new full-size server rack was mounted to contain all server hardware. This strategic move was designed to consolidate space management and airflow, crucial to the health and lifespan of the hardware.

Monitor Setup: A separate monitor was installed to allow convenient server monitoring and maintenance. This setup provides real-time server performance monitoring, crucial to quick diagnostics and settings.

Server Rack Tray Installation: The installation of a server rack tray kept all the servers and their related equipment stored safely and within reach. This installation was instrumental in maintaining the server room tidy and in reducing maintenance time.

KVM Switch Installation: Installed a KVM switch to facilitate effortless control of the various servers and the DVR system from one workstation. This consolidation greatly improved operational productivity by allowing rapid switching between systems without requiring several input devices.

Server Mounting: The existing servers were rack-mounted to utilize the server rack space in an optimal manner and for better airflow and organization. Mounting properly is required to prevent overheating and to maintain system stability.

Wiring Repair: Server room wiring was neatly organized and repaired. Cable management helps to keep the clutter at bay, reduce the risk of overheating, and prevent signal interference, all of which contribute to a safer and more efficient server environment.

Switch Replacement: Replaced the old network switch with a new Meraki switch. The upgrade has significantly improved network performance, boosted security features, and enhanced management features, which are at the center of meeting Airdex's growing operational demands.
