Patent attributes
A system may include an information technology rack for holding information technology device modules such that heat generated by the information technology device modules primarily vents in one direction. The information technology rack may be adjacent to both (1) a data center hot aisle into which the information technology rack ventilates air heated by one or more of the information technology device modules and (2) a data center cold aisle that is separated from the data center hot aisle by the information technology rack. The system may also include at least one information technology device module positioned on the information technology rack such that (1) the information technology device module is accessible for removal via the data center hot aisle and (2) at least one cable connected to the information technology device module is positioned in the data center cold aisle. Various other systems and methods are also disclosed.
