EDP Europe Limited
EDP Europe Limited specialises
in designing and supplying critical infrastructure solutions for Data Centre and
Enterprise IT environments, drawing on 35 years of experience.
Over this time, the company has aimed to provide a broad portfolio of
leading-edge systems that optimise the overall performance of its customers' IT
environments, regardless of their size. From design and build to ongoing
operational management, EDP Europe supports clients throughout the lifecycle of
a Data Centre to enhance efficiency, resiliency, flexibility, and security.
| EDP Data Centre Solutions |
EDP Data Centre Solutions focuses on advanced infrastructure solutions and
services that aim to optimise the performance and efficiency of critical Data
Centre white space environments. With extensive experience in Data Centre white
space, EDP Data Centre Solutions (EDP DCS) has helped numerous Data Centres
improve their airflow management, enabling them to optimise cooling and achieve
energy efficiency gains. EDP DCS collaborates with architects, designers, and
Data Centre Managers to deliver a high-performance white space environment that
can grow to meet future demands.

| Aisle Containment Systems |
Aisle Containment Systems have long served as a core element of Data Centre
design and are a proven means for improving airflow management. By segregating
hot and cold air streams, aisle containment systems adhere to essential airflow
management best practices. This segregation helps optimise Data Centre cooling
systems, thereby boosting their efficiency and effectiveness.
There are two main types of aisle containment systems: Cold Aisle Containment,
which encloses the cold aisle, and Hot Aisle Containment, which encloses the hot
aisle, directing hot exhaust air from IT equipment back into the ceiling return
plenum and on to the CRAC units.
EDP DCS designs, manufactures, and installs bespoke aisle containment systems
tailored to fit clients' exact requirements, suitable for new builds, retrofits,
or hyperscale projects. These systems are independent of rack manufacturers and
accommodate variations in rack heights or gaps created by missing racks or
building support columns.
Featuring stable end-of-aisle doors that open fully to 1200 to 1800mm aisle
widths, robust gap infill panels, and FM global roof panels, EDP's aisle
containment systems help optimise your Data Centre's cooling system.
| EDP Distribution |
EDP Distribution delivers solutions that address day-to-day requirements within
Data Centre operations, many of which are readily held in stock, including:
| Airflow Management Solutions |
To efficiently cool Data Centres and computer rooms, adjusting the set points on
cooling systems is essential. Following airflow management best practices
improves cooling efficiency, ensuring correct positioning of floor grilles in
cold aisles, blanking off unused rack spaces with
blanking panels, and sealing
cable cut-outs within the raised floor with
floor grommets.
EDP Distribution provides airflow management solutions that enhance cooling
efficiency for clients. These solutions include: EziBlank, HotLok, and PlenaFill
blanking panels, as well as KoldLok raised floor grommets and Triad floor
grilles that enhance cold air delivery. Additionally, EDP Distribution offers
aisle containment systems and solutions that improve the cooling performance of
network switches, such as EDP SwitchDUCT and HotLok SwitchFix.
AisleLok Modular Containment presents an out-of-the-box aisle containment
solution that can be self-installed in minutes, yielding similar benefits and
results as a fully enclosed aisle containment system.

EDP Distribution proudly serves as a stock-holding distributor for HUBER+SUHNER,
a leading provider of modular and scalable end-to-end
fibre connectivity
solutions that deliver the highest packing densities on the market today. These
high-quality, high-performance fibre networking solutions ensure your Data
Centre not only meets today's performance standards but also has the backbone
required for future growth. Our solutions save time, reduce costs, mitigate
risks, optimise space, improve productivity, and future-proof fibre
connectivity.

| Custom PDUs |
EDP Distribution recognises that not everyone's
rack power requirements are
identical. A one-size-fits-all approach results in a PDU that might not suit
your needs.
We offer custom-designed, bespoke PDUs configured to meet your current and
future requirements. You can choose between single or 3-phase configurations,
rated up to 63A, with outlet configurations such as C13, C19, UK plug, or Schuko.
Our custom PDUs can be dumb or intelligent and can be terminated with a
selection of plugs.
We configure PDUs for remote or local power monitoring, with Intelligent PDUs
capable of monitoring the entire power strip or individual outlets. Options for
remote power cycling are also available, and our offerings include DC-powered
PDUs among other power solutions.
Manufactured and supported in the UK, our PDUs deliver a comprehensive and
cost-effective solution for distributing power to IT equipment within a rack
environment.
If you have a rack power requirement, contact EDP today.
| Rack Access Control - Rack Access Security Systems |
With regulatory and compliance requirements becoming stricter regarding
information security, the need for better physical security and controlled
access to IT racks is greater than ever.
EDP Distribution offers a cost-effective, retrofitting intelligent locking and
access control system that provides real-time reporting on individual cabinet
door statuses, issuing alerts in the event of unauthorised access. The system
can be configured to allow individuals access to specific doors, with door
handles indicating which can be accessed. It also enables remote triggering of
door openings for secure and controlled access by visiting engineers.
This system can integrate a dual-access reader that provides access control via
fingerprint, RFID card, or a combination of both, storing data locally to
eliminate the need for biometric data management. To enhance security, the
system can connect to video encoders that activate upon rack access.
| Scanner Charging Racks |
EDP Distribution provides a solution for the secure charging of high-value
handheld scanners and associated printers commonly used in transportation and
logistics industries, the High-Density Device Dock (HD3). HD3 securely manages
and charges handheld scanner equipment and is available in various sizes with
different capacities. The HD3 can concurrently charge multiple devices,
compatible with popular brands such as Zebra TC55, TC56, and TC75. HD3 Charging
Cabinets are also available for iPads, iPhones, and other tablets or mobile
devices.
The HD3 features fully welded construction with locking telescopic vented
shelves to improve airflow. Integrated LED lighting and an acrylic window assist
in managing devices while the door is closed.
EDP Europe actively offers a full range of additional services and solutions
through its Data Centre Solutions and Distribution divisions to support Data
Centre and Enterprise IT environments. These include:
- A variety of 19" rack solutions, in several sizes, from Wall Boxes to
