The HARTING Han-Eco® Modular PDU Connector Solution

This three-part article explores the most important trends in data-centre connectivity, the Open Compute Project (OCP), and the ways in which HARTING is meeting these challenges head on, providing solutions to today’s challenges with an eye towards future trends. The third part, below, discusses HARTING’s top solution for these challenges. Read Part 1 and Part 2.

The HARTING solution

HARTING partners with industry leaders to remain on the cutting edge of technology and trends. Underwriter Laboratories and the Telecommunication Industry Association form the basis for many of the products HARTING designs, ensuring regulatory compliance and efficient, effective connections. Most recently, HARTING’s Han-Eco® connector and cabling solution was used in Project Olympus, Microsoft’s next-generation rack-level solution, which is open-sourced through Open Compute Project.

The Han-Eco®, known as the “universal PDU connectivity solution”, represents HARTING’s marriage of functionality, design, and cost-efficiency. Its plug-and-play design enables quick and easy assembly of a new data centre. Because of its light weight, the solution is ideal for prefabricated or mobile centres.

In keeping with the OCP’s goals, this solution is a customizable stock part, providing both the standardization and flexibility that any company requires when designing a data centre. Inside the Han-Eco® connector are standardized, reconfigurable modules from HARTING’s Han-Modular® product line. The Han-Modular® product lines allow multiple media such as power, signal, and data in a single connector. All of the modules are standard stocked parts, allowing for a customized solution using off-the-shelf parts. With its global footprint, HARTING parts are available as needed, where needed, making them an economical option. For all of these reasons, the HARTING Han-Eco® was the chosen connectivity solution for Microsoft’s Project Olympus and has become a standard solution for data-centre connectivity.

The Han-Eco® connectivity solution is available as a full cable assembly manufactured by HARTING Customized Solutions (HCS) or as individual components.

With the Han-Eco® connectivity solution, as with all of its products, HARTING actively partners with customers and potential clients to pinpoint and solve their pain points. Completely robust and completely affordable, HARTING solutions create customizable plug-and-play products for every company’s data-centre connectivity needs.
