The Smart Shelter is a heavy duty, highly-secure, modular technical room. It is a scalable alternative solution to traditional Data Center construction.

The Smart Shelter is ideal for situations where a traditional data center is not a viable option.  Fast deployment, modularity for future expansion as well as reusable "green" components are only a few of the may advantages to this solution.

AST SMART SHELTER CONTAINER (SSC)

Smart Shelter Containerized
The Smart Shelter Containerized (SSC) is a heavy duty, highly-secure, modular technical room, built inside a rugged, standardized steel freight container.

It's designed for outdoor applications and provides unique fire and thermal resistance, anti-vandalism and blast protection and water-tight performance.

ADVANTAGES

Over and above other container solutions available on the market, the SSC can:

  • Adapt to customer real needs: density requirements, number of racks, type of container, etc. 
  • Friendly environment for operators with appropriate serviceability. 
  • Lower PUE available on the market: as low as 1.05. 
  • Thermal stable environment. 
  • Secure environment, even higher than traditional Data Center. 
  • Capable to integrate any hardware manufacturer.

The SSC is a highly-versatile, mobile solution, ideal for those mission-critical telecom, IT or network applications where high performance of servers, switches or exchanges is demanded with no compromise. When security is an issue and downtime is not an option, choose an SSC.
