As wireless connectivity becomes an increasingly vital part of enterprise networks, it’s imperative to understand how new Wi-Fi standards and technologies are shaping the digital landscape. This includes making sense of how to best support the generational improvements of Wi-Fi 6 and expanded bandwidth of Wi-Fi 6E, and how to adapt your current networks and wireless access points (APs) to handle such changes. In a special presentation from Oberon President Scott Thompson, learn how network managers can implement the proper tools and technologies to evaluate Wi-Fi performance while identifying how to deploy new networks using the right mix of AP mounting and storage equipment. Everything from ensuring reliable wireless coverage and physical security to better compliance and aesthetics will be covered, including how the right equipment can help you seamlessly integrated Wi-Fi into any environment, including challenging indoor and outdoor spaces where demand for wireless connectivity only continues to grow.
 

With every new connection, device and demand for data in today’s always-on world, networks big and small are strapped for space, bandwidth and power. But with a great need for power comes a great responsibility for network managers, analysts and architects to address today’s challenges with future-ready solutions. Join Chatsworth Products’ (CPI) Milad Mouseghy as he shares the latest trends and best practices for power protection and distribution in data centers and IDF closets alike, including what’s new and now with uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is opening up a whole world of new possibilities thanks to its ability to transmit data and power over a single network cable. But with new possibilities come all new challenges and obstacles for adopting traditional ICT infrastructure into the non-traditional spaces where PoE thrives. In this timely webinar, we’ll discuss what the advantages of PoE really are, identifying ideal locations for PoE switches, and the best cabinets, racks and wireless mounts on the market today to accommodate new PoE gear, all the while navigating the old and new standards and guidelines being swept up in the PoE wave.  

As more 5G networks get deployed, rising demand for increased service at lower cost is driving the push for new wireless technologies. Everything from faster upload and download speeds to more efficiently and remotely controlled devices and other innovative tools that automate and enhance everyday tasks is just the beginning. But where should you begin? Start with Chatsworth Products’ (CPI) Product Application Specialist/Field Application Engineer, Tom Cabral, as he discusses the evolution of wireless networks, what new wireless technologies mean for connectivity within the Internet of Things (IoT) and just how you too can successfully deploy new resources to ensure network reliability from the data center to the edge.

Managing today's data centers with a focus on overall efficiency and bottom-line return on investment (ROI) means managers must invest for today and plan for tomorrow. But while intelligent power is driving better availability, efficiency, manageability, and security, the planning does not simply stop with deploying intelligent power distribution units (PDUs). In this webinar, Chatsworth Products' (CPI) Sr. Product Manager of Power and Electronics, Ashish Moondra, and Sunbird® Software’s Vice President of Product Management and Marketing, James Cerwinski, reveal how a strategy that captures capacity and efficiency data can be used to foster continuous ROI, ensuring that existing infrastructure is being utilized properly, minimizing the overall consumption of the data center and planning for the future by building estimates for reached capacity. 

When a quick, smooth deployment and ease of operations is at stake, it’s important to remember that the whole of your data center ecosystem is only as good as the sum of its parts. That means paying equal attention and care to how your data center will manage power, cabling and airflow. In this session, we’ll take a deeper dive into airflow and thermal management specifically, using a dollars and sense cost analysis and real-world case study to learn how the right cabinet solution integrated with the right thermal management accessories and Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software can ensure your ROI is strong and the temperature is always just right.

Unprecedented times have intensified the need for remote management and control of your data center. But, this isn’t the first—and it won’t be the last time—we face unique situations that shed light on the complexity of our reliance on technology.  Looking to the future, unique time of our present becomes part of our past, the complexity of hybrid networks across multiple facilities and the need for connectivity everywhere demands that we seek new ways to remotely monitor, control, secure and optimize the equipment in our data centers.
 
Join Chatsworth Products' (CPI) power management solutions expert, Matt Burkle, to explore three key building blocks for virtually optimizing your data center operation and learn:
 
•    How to address the challenges of higher density racks by implementing intelligent power distribution units
•    How cabinet-level remote management and control of data center environments will be is critical to optimizing your data center
•    How to ensure physical security for data and equipment at the cabinet level
 

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is widely used for predicting and optimizing the cooling performance of existing data centers and designing more efficient new data centers. This presentation demonstrates how a CFD software product can be used to examine the cooling conditions of data centers, evaluate various remedies, and emphasize the need to properly implement containment solutions when applicable. This includes several case studies of real-life data centers in which the CFD technique was used to implement containment solutions correctly and effectively.
 

With recent advances in uninterruptible power supply (UPS)—including the introduction of transformerless UPSs and Energy Saver Mode, more U.S. data centers are making the switch from 480/208 VAC to 415/240 VAC. 

Join CPI Power Experts Andy Grav and Matt Burkle as they discuss the underlying factors driving this transition and why 415/240 VAC is primed to significantly reduce OPEX/CAPEX and total cost of ownership over traditional 480/208 VAC power systems.

Learning Objectives: 

1) Understand how new advancements in uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) are driving the transition from 480/208 VAC to 415/240 VAC power systems in data 
      centers

2) Calculate the cost savings that 415/240 VAC power systems has on capital and operational expenditures

3) Learn how 415/240 VAC intelligent rack power distribution units (PDUs) can distribute nearly twice the power on the same copper to achieve multiple reductions.
 

As the proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing and storage continues at a breakneck pace, the rules of the game are changing and your traditional telecom room needs a makeover. Not only is the need for larger, heavier equipment driving new rack designs and more innovative, space-saving cable management and enclosure solutions, it’s shining a light on just how critical a solid power management strategy (complete with monitoring) really is to optimizing site utilization, no matter where your site takes you—including the most nontraditional edge environments where environmentally rated enclosures become even more important.

Join CPI’s David Richards, Product Manager for Open Systems, as he reveals what the traditional telecom room makeover will require and why now’s the time to plan for the future. 
 

The growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industry 4.0 require additional telecom, data and computing services closer to the end user to minimize latency, risk and cost.  These edge networks are being deployed everywhere including warehouses, manufacturing floors, and even more remote outdoor locations.   In this webinar, you will:
