Ensure efficiency and uptime in your data center with Ned-Tech’s cable management solutions. Discover expert tips on tray design, airflow optimization, and capacity planning using high-quality mesh, ladder, and fiber raceways built for performance and compliance.
Data centers and telecom rooms run on order and airflow. Messy cable routes steal capacity, complicate troubleshooting, and increase risk. With a disciplined tray design, you’ll improve uptime and make growth painless.
Separate and Conquer
Physically separate power and data routes and colour‑code them. Use wire mesh or dedicated fibre raceway above racks for structured cabling, and ladder trays for power. Maintain overhead clearances for sprinkler and maintenance access.
Airflow and Thermal Strategy
Don’t block CRAC or CRAH pathways. Keep trays above the hot aisle where possible, and avoid deep trays that trap hot air. Use brush grommets and blanking panels in racks, and maintain under‑floor discipline if you’re on a raised plenum.
Capacity Planning
Design for moves, adds, and changes. Leave 30% spare, pre‑install drop‑outs, and label every route and rack destination. Document pathways in your DCIM so teams can plan work without guesswork.
Change Control and Cleanliness
Adopt a ticketed method for every cable move. Remove abandoned cabling. Perform quarterly housekeeping and annual load checks on supports.
Ned‑Tech provides mesh, ladder, and fibre raceways plus accessories that keep your white space neat, cool, and audit‑ready.
