Busbar Power Distribution

Mission-Critical Power-Distribution For Your Data Centre – unlimited, scalable and flexible

Starline track busbar power distribution allows for optimised power distribution in mission-critical data centres and server rooms. The track busbars, consisting of modular and expandable aluminium profiles, can be easily fixed on the ceiling, under a drop ceiling or installed in the raised floor (plenum). Power is provided to the power feed at the end of the busbar. From there it is distributed through the track system without the need to pull cable. Power supply outlets with custom configurations can be added at any location along the busbar power distribution tracks without the need for external companies. The power plug-ins can be single or three phase for AC or DC connections and in just about any combination you can think of. Adding power to a dynamic and mission-critical datacentre has never been so easy.

Easy Installation and Reconfiguration

Plug-In Installation - Step 1Starline is designed to be future proof, while meeting the demands of today’s constantly changing mission-critical data centres and server rooms. Totally different than traditional power distribution panels and cable whips, reconfigurations are Plug-In Installation - Step 2completed in minutes, not weeks, by simply inserting and rotating the power outlet plug-ins wherever you need it – all this without the interruption of power or the chance of a Plug-In Installation - Step 3short circuit due to the installation of new cables. As there is no costly and time consuming cable to install, the return on investment is almost immediate. Corresponding to each individual datacentre’s requirements you can extend the redundancy of your Starline solution by simply adding parallel track busbars. Starline is UL857 fire rated, fulfils the EN 60439-1(-2) and IEC 60439-1(-2): 2000 standard.

Typical Applications and Benefits

The Starline Power Distribution Solutions are designed for IT surroundings with highest demands regarding security, availability, flexibility and scalability. Therefore Starline is very often implemented in mission critical data centres, test and demo labs, where each interruption of the power supply can have a dramatic impact on the security of sensitive data or business transactions and the running of your business. It is good to know that you can rely on Starline all the time.

Power Distribution via Track Busways for Maximum Availability, Flexibility, and Security in Mission Critical Data Centres

Reliable and available IT hardware is the pillar of success in mission critical DC environments. According to TIER classification I to IV, multiple redundancy that is both modular and scalable is essential to this success.

Busway solution supplies integrated hardware and secured physical power to racks.

Busbars with 100, 225, 250, 400, or 800 amps can be installed overhead or under the raised floor. Mounting plug-ins with different power designs takes only a few seconds: the turn-and-lock plug head provides continuous access along the busbar track, and easy installation with a 90-degree rotation. Following the installation, power outlets or drop cords are ready to supply racks with electricity or be connected to single IT devices.

Starline Highlights:

  • Modular Track Busbar
  • Power Plug-In via Twist & Lock
  • Tool-Free Installation of Plug-In-Units
  • No interruption of the power supply from racks
  • Up to 800 Amps – 415 Volts
  • Easy Reconfigurations
  • No cabling
  • Lower TCO compared with traditional power distribution panels
