TradeOff Tools to optimize data center and edge designs

Schneider Electric is a global leader in energy management and automation solutions, including those for data centers. To help data center designers and operators make informed decisions about data center infrastructure design, we provide a variety of TradeOff Tools. These data center tools enable users to quantify the tradeoffs with various data center planning decisions, including the ROI, TCO, sustainability, carbon footprint, and energy efficiency of varying power and cooling architecture choices.

One of our key TradeOff Tools is the data center capital cost calculator. This data center tool enables designers to evaluate the cost tradeoffs between different data center infrastructure design options, such as different cooling and power distribution systems. Another important set of tools are the DCIM value calculators. These tools help quantify the ROI or payback of implementing data center infrastructure management (DCIM) monitoring and planning / modeling software.

We also offer a variety of data center tools focused UPS energy efficiency, including the 1PH UPS efficiency comparison and 3PH UPS efficiency comparison. These tools enable decision makers to compare the energy efficiency of different UPSs, considering factors such as operating mode and IT load.
