FAQs
The RM Security Room is a modular room-within-a-room solution designed for easy integration with current layouts. It supports built-in modules such as doors, cable shields, and ventilation units, enabling quick adaptation to existing IT racks and infrastructure without major structural changes. This compatibility minimizes on-site engineering time and helps maintain project schedules.
RM Security Room demonstrates RC 3 security performance per EN 1627/1630, IP 5x dust-tightness, and comprehensive system testing for fire resistance and EMC protection. The complete construction is tested rather than individual components, ensuring real-world performance and regulatory alignment for data center environments.
The RM Security Room offers Basic protection (plus) and supports High Availability configurations as a modular solution, known as the GSR+ option. This enables scalable protection for IT infrastructure, allowing a data center to grow from standard containment to maximum physical protection as uptime and resilience requirements evolve.
The modular, room-within-a-room approach reduces field construction time and downtime during deployment. Quick installation is aided by built-in modules, standardized interfaces, and validated full-system testing, ensuring a smoother commissioning process and a predictable, lower-risk path to operational readiness.
Although price varies by project, the modular design minimizes downtime and accelerates deployment, delivering faster time-to-availability and reduced risk. The complete-construction testing provides credible warranties and supports long-term maintenance planning, contributing to lower lifecycle costs and improved asset protection over the data center’s lifespan.
