Iceotope, the global leader in Precision Liquid Cooling has announced the launch of the second-generation KUL RAN, a 2U chassis in a 19-inch, short-depth form factor featuring Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) ProLiant DL110 Gen11 servers with 4th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors for high-density, low latency radio access network (RAN) and edge computing services.
KUL RAN brings all the advantages of Precision Liquid Cooling to the edge in cellular base stations and harsh remote edge sites by providing a reliable and protected environment for the server equipment, offering reduced cooling costs without the need for re-engineering existing cooling infrastructure. With KUL RAN (2U) having a 20% savings on energy consumption at device level, operators can save more than $40 million a year in total energy costs, a significant impact on their bottom line.
The combination of Iceotope, HPE and Intel’s world-leading expertise offers a consolidated solution to reduce Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions in the telecoms market. The KUL RAN (2U) solution reduces server power consumption by up to 20%. It also reduces component failure rates by up to 30% extending the operational lifetime of sensitive IT equipment and greatly reducing truck rolls.
With its energy-efficient operation and built-in liquid-to-air cooling, KUL RAN (2U) ensures zero-touch maintenance and extends the equipment lifespan. Featuring an IP67-rated enclosure, KUL RAN (2U) offers 100% protection from thermal shock, dust, and airborne contaminants, even in harsh environments.
KUL RAN is highly scalable, allowing flexible expansion from one unit to many, adapting effortlessly to telco operators’ evolving needs.
David Craig, CEO at Iceotope said, “We are thrilled that our continuing collaboration with HPE and Intel is addressing some of the most critical challenges facing telco operators today. Global energy costs and Net Zero commitments are factoring strongly into operators’ strategic planning and financial bottom lines. Our new KUL RAN (2U) solution can have a real impact as operators explore their extreme edge strategies.”
