How to choose the best access flooring system for your data center

Furthermore, experts establish if a high air-flow system integration is needed for air distribution.

Sites that require extensive cable management need to decide if cabling will run in the ceiling or in the sub floor. Flooring finishes vary a wide range from high pressure laminate, to carpet or bare exposed floor. High flow floor tiles are another factor that factors into the capability of the system. Finally, when all of these decisions have been specified, by all means a computer flooring system can be specified.
