Modular Data Center and Shelter Solutions
Unlocking 5G Capabilities at Cell Sites and the Far Edge
While macro and small cells are vital to 5G, they’re just part of the equation. Active equipment like switches, servers, and intelligent controllers are needed to control RAN functionality, handle uplink and downlink fronthaul and backhaul traffic, and perform local processing for low-latency applications—from AI and content caching to IoT analytics, augmented reality, and autonomous vehicles. That’s where modular edge data centers and shelters come in. These mini data centers deployed near or at the base of cell sites house all the equipment needed to unlock the capabilities of 5G
As a leader in data center infrastructure, Siemon offers a broad range of solutions well suited for outfitting modular edge data centers and shelters at cell sites and the far edge—whether deployed on site in existing facilities or in prefabricated OEM modular units that are rigged into place.
- Racks and cable management—Protects and manages critical equipment and high-density cabling throughout modular data centers and shelters
- High-speed interconnects—Enables low-latency equipment links to support real-time emerging applications
- Fiber enclosures and splicing solutions—Reliably terminates and manages high-density fiber, from RUs on the antennae to backhaul networks from the cloud
- Plug and play assemblies—Speeds deployment and improves reliability for equipment and fronthaul links
- Copper connectivity—High-performance category 5e, 6 and 6A UTP and shielded systems for out-of-band management, KVM and connecting end devices like surveillance cameras, access control and sensors
Siemon advanced data center solutions are backed by superior R&D capabilities and engineering expertise to tailor and preconfigure solutions to fit specific needs. Our comprehensive Data Center Design Services can help create detailed floor plans with effective rack elevations and pathway layouts and develop detailed bills of material to ensure the necessary components for optimal performance. This translates to increased efficiency, reduced downtime and the ability to easily scale facilities to meet the future demands of 5G edge computing.
Wirelines are required connected to base station structures, modular data centers (MDC) and EDGE computing centers, which are vital to processing and releasing info at remote locations for quicker service. Siemon has end-to-end solutions to keep your high-speed connections moving, and satisfying mobile customer demands.
