Impact of noise reduction on server performance and reliability
The world around us is changing rapidly since we now have entered the digital era – the time of growth and transformation. Our data centers too evolved with the growing demand for operational efficiency as well as managed noise levels.
Need for controlling noise in the server rooms
Noise beyond a certain level can adversely affect employee comfort, productivity, and overall focus. This makes it important to address the issue. Now, Netrack being an industry leader in innovative data center solutions understands the criticality of reducing noise in the server rooms.
In fact, server rooms across all organizations are known to produce high level noise due to cooling systems, fans, and big equipment. Continuous exposure to such noise can lead to several health hazards for professionals working in that environment daily. One such health hazard due to prolonged exposure to noise is noise-induced hearing loss. Further, with long-term exposure it can permanently damage the auditory health of individuals exposed to it.
Apart from hearing loss, high noise levels can also disrupt sleep patterns and cause psychological and physiological issues in the long run. Through various studies it has been found that when human beings are exposed to constant loud noise, they often experience fatigue, reduced concentration, and can become irritable. All of this considered together can impact the overall productivity of a person. Hence, it is important to implement effective noise control measures in the server rooms.
Netrack’s innovative solution for a better tomorrow
Netrack came up with an innovative solution to reduce noise levels while increasing performance of the servers. With the help of blanking panels, Netrack could considerably reduce noise in the server rack environments. Since these panels could also contribute to enhanced operational efficiency along with reducing noise, it made its mark as a perfect solution to the server room issue. With its unique design and easy to use feature, these blanking panels can be easily installed and are compatible and flexible in any server rack setup.
Netrack’s blanking panels are light weight, durable, and RoHS-compliant ensuring quality and sustainability. While their primary function is to optimize airflow and thermal management within server racks, but they are perfect when it comes to reducing noise levels. This is possible by eliminating gaps and unused spaces in server racks and also with the help of advanced sound-absorbing materials that can reduce transmission of sound waves outside the server room.
Netrack’s blanking panels also facilitate efficient cooling of the equipment that helps in reducing the cooling load thus, reducing the noise generated by fans and exhausts. Due to reduced gaps, it also minimizes any impact due to vibration thus reducing any noise caused by that. In this way, Netrack’s solution offers a more stable server environment with reliability and efficiency.
Soundproof racks as an alternate solution
Apart from blanking panels as solution, Netrack also offers soundproof racks that are designed to effectively absorb and dampen sound waves. These rack enclosures are easy to install and are cost efficient solution. They can create a healthy and more productive work environment with efficiency and reliability.
