How to reduce cost, standardize installations, and start creating value faster in your Data Center Installations

Created on: Mar 10, 2018


There are hundreds of companies out there that offer data center installation services, however, most of these companies come with a hefty price tag. However, using simple techniques and reducing steps in your supply chain, you can lower the cost of each installation, decrease installation time, and start creating value faster. Read on below to see how World Cord Sets, Inc can help you.


Vendor Management & Supply Chain


One of the most difficult changes in data center installation is logistics. Oftentimes companies are left with two options, manage their supply chain on their own, or pay outrageous markups to have someone else do it for them. At World Cord Sets, Inc we have been working hard to increase our product offerings, optimizing our fulfillment, and create best in industry kitting capabilities. We stock a huge range of power cables, data cables, telecom cables, and more to meet all of your installation needs. Because we make the products we sell ourselves, or, have great relationships with our manufacturers, we're able to give you outstanding prices. We've also developed relationships with some of the biggest data center power management companies such as Server Technology, APC, and Raritan to deliver you everything you need.


Cable Kits


One of the most time-consuming parts of data center installs is sorting through cables and equipment to find each product for each rack. Cable kits solve these problems and make installation a breeze. World Cord Sets, Inc provides a host of cable kitting services to make your installation painless. Based on your specific requirements, we'll create a per cabinet cable kit, labeled to your specifications. An example cable kit could be


  1. 8x 2FT P-Lock Power Cable Blue 
  2. 8x 2FT P-Lock Power Cable Black
  3. 8x 3FT P-Lock Power Cable  Blue 
  4. 8x 3FT P-Lock Power Cable Black 
  5. 8x 4FT P-Lock Power Cable Blue
  6. 8x 4FT P-Lock Power Cable Black 
  7. 8x 5FT P-Lock Power Cable Blue
  8. 8x 5FT P-Lock Power Cable Black
  9. 8x 6FT P-Lock Power Cable Blue
  10. 8x 6FT P-Lock Power Cable Black

Kitting not only makes it easier to standardize your installations by using the same kit across multiple locations but makes the install standard as well. All installation technicians will be using the exact same products, kitted in the exact same manner. This means that training installation technicians is simple, and allows them to install at any new site.

All of these items can be custom labeled to meet your labeling needs, such as the length of the cable, part number of the cable, or Rack U & Cabinet number of the cable.
