4. © 2003 APC corporation. Is Your Company experiencing these trends?  Rapid changes in IT technology  Regulatory requirements  Increasing availability expectations  High operating/service costs  High density  Server consolidation In response, APC is changing the way the world designs, installs, operates, manages and maintains Network- Critical Physical Infrastructure (NCPI). What is NCPI?

5. © 2003 APC corporation. What is Network Critical Physical Infrastructure (NCPI)? The facility, physical support, power, and cooling for Information Technology NCPI consists of: Power (UPS, Power Distribution) Air (Air Conditioners, Air Distribution) Rack (Enclosures, Cable Mgmt, etc.) Management (common platform) Services (professional & break/fix) Data Centres or “IT Rooms” could be as small as an oversized closet or as large as a 100,000 square foot facility!
