Electrical infrastructure is 40% to 45%, between $136 million and $153 million for the electrical infrastructure.
Kevin BrownHOST
25:25
Switchgear, wire... transformers, generator backups, uninterrupted power systems, PDUs as well.
Kevin BrownHOST
25:35
Second was HVAC, which was 51 to 68 million.
Kevin BrownHOST
25:39
And this is just in an average data center.
Harrison KinsleyHOST

With a 30 amp 240 volt power distribution unit, that could theoretically provide me with 7.2 kilowatts of total power.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
8:09
And that's off a single outlet and single cable going to the rack.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
8:13
Then this PDU would distribute that amongst all of the machines in the rack.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
8:17
So I hunted for a 30 amp 240 volt power supply and I landed on this one.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
8:21
Unfortunately, that listing is a bit inaccurate.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
8:56
But even so, I still have an unused 20A 240V outlet on its own breaker entirely as well.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
9:03
So if I do somehow max out this 5.8kW, I've got plenty more to work with.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
9:08
The specific PDU has both C13 and C19 receptacles.
Andrew OwensGUEST
23:35
Yeah.
Andrew OwensGUEST
23:36
So the monitoring systems to monitor the ACs and the PDUs.
Andrew OwensGUEST
23:41
The ACs, the humidity sensors, the temperature sensors, the PDUs, the breakers, all of that sort of thing.
Andrew OwensGUEST
23:50
And because we didn't have massive budget for all of the flagship software and whatever at that point, so we did it ourselves.
Sajid VayaniHOST
24:00
How was the uptake when the licensing opened up?
Gabe AndrewsGUEST
23:29
When I tell people, hey, I can put...
Gabe AndrewsGUEST
23:31
The UPS, the batteries, the STS and the PDU all in the same skid.
Gabe AndrewsGUEST
23:35
Oh my God.
Gabe AndrewsGUEST
23:36
No, you cannot.
Kevin GoodmanGUEST
8:00
You also have multiple tiers of power distribution and cooling.
Kevin GoodmanGUEST
8:05
So you, you have added crack units and you have 10, 20 ton Lieberts on each side, both a and B, for example, you've, um, brought in more PDUs and RPPs, the infrastructure, UPS is expanded, et cetera, so that you can ilk out as much power for the most important customers that have to have an addition of racks that are high density.
Kevin GoodmanGUEST
8:35
And it becomes pragmatic because it's just like quantum, you know, it's going to come, it's going to come in increments and it'll be here.
Kevin GoodmanGUEST
8:46
And will we need as much as we think of it? We do.
VedranHOST
15:56
No problem.
VedranHOST
15:57
For all of the PDUs of the HP generation, whatever, Gen 1, Gen 2s, Gen 3s, I tried.
VedranHOST
16:07
And the second thing is that it is a little bit too slow.
VedranHOST
16:13
I'm not talking about reconnections.
JasminHOST
17:34
And the problem is that it never comes back It is able to reestablish things.
JasminHOST
17:40
No, no, you didn't need to do the hard reset of the ILO, but it simply stops actually behaving like a normal regular service, but instead sends you something every two or three seconds, then one minute of pause, and then restart something.
VedranHOST
17:54
I was talking about the PDUs this time.
VedranHOST
17:57
PDUs you cannot reset.

Still quite a bit more machines to set up and network here, but things are definitely starting to finally come together.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
18:14
For the astute among you, yes, that is right, the power for that PDU is indeed coming from the dryer hookup.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
18:20
Good eye, good eye.
Harrison KinsleyHOST
18:22
I always knew this, but it is crazy that the dryer This thing you probably think almost nothing about takes a 30 amp in the United States, 30 amp at 240 volt hookup.
