Self cooling racks

We run into instances where the DC does not have adequate cooling. We can provide the customer with option of self cooling racks, such as - https://www.netrackindia.com/blog/self-contained-racks-with-cooling/

We ship the stacked racks to the customer and they place it in an appropriate place and not be worried about the cooling provision at that place.

    Hi

    Thank you for the idea.

    It is now possible to order HCI System 'rackless'. A client could order a self cooling rack and rack HCI System componenents into it.
