EDGE Modular ships with an integrated power chain designed for low-operator demand. Rack mounted UPS units provide conditioned power and ride-thorugh, customers can specify lithium-ion or lead-acid battery technolgoy depending on duty cycle, ambient temperature and lifecycle preference. Custom distribution panels are built to specific load profile of the deployed equipment and an optional standby generator with on-board fuel storage provides extended run time when grid power is interrupted or unavailable. Dual redundancy, concurrently maintainable, fault tollerant.

For sites where reliable mains power cannot be assumed - remote outposts, disaster-affected areas, training and exercise locations, off-grid industrial sites. EDGE Modular can be configured with a hybrid energy package. Solar PV, battery storage, inverter, and generator are integrated into the units power architecture and managed a single unified system, with the generator only running when solar and battery cannot meet the load. the result is genuie off-grid capability with reduced fuel consumption, lower acoustic and thermal load when running on renewables and longer endurance between refuel or resupply

Cooling is selected to match the workload and the environment in which the unit is deployed to. EDGE Modular supports room-level, row-level and rack-level precision cooling, with hot-aisle containment available where rack densities justify it. The container envelope is fuly insulated and fire rated to manage solar gain in tropical and high-ambient environments and to retain condition air efficiency in colder climates. the cooling architecture is sized for the deployed compute load, not over provisioned to a generic worst-case which keeps PUE down and operating costs predictable. Where redundancy and concurrent maintainability are a requirement, we design our cooling systems to either N+1, 2N or higher to maintain levels of uptime. Where internal realestate is a premium, cooling systems can also be fitted to the external facade of the container onsite.

Security is designed from the structural shell outward. Controlled access entry, intrusion detection systems, CCTV and environmental control systems are standard. Fire detection and suppresion are integrated with the management system so events are detected, contained and reported without requiring on-site staff. Customers operating higher threat environments can specify enhanced security construction such as SCIF secure compartmetns and access control as part of the build specification

Data, power and services are connected to the container using engineered connection systems, specific to your design. Through the preliminary design process, we will orientate your EDGE Modular container specific to your site, and then position where the services will enter the container. These can enter the container from overhead, underneath or via side entry. Depengin on the level of flexibility required, our containers can be made using simple alumium gland plates, Roxtec glands or MCT style glanding system, ensuring both water tightness as well as maintaining your fire rating and boundary. 

Not sure where you services will be positioned? Not a problem, we can easily add additional penetrations in multiple locations to give you complete flexibility and opportunity for future growth. Our glanding systems and internal support systems also enable for full cable seperation, to ensure data security for EMI/EMC standards, along with the necessary shielding and physical barriers you may need for EMSEC.

Integrating both sensitive indoor equipment such as IT equipment, communications gear alongside outdoor rated equipment can be challenging. This is why EDGE have developed a unique feature - the 'integrated outdoor alcove'.  Set in approximately 600mm from the end doors, we build a full internal bulkhead which is welded insitu to provide a watertight seal. Next the double doors are modified to have full heigh security mesh that is welded in place, creating a high-volume airflow chamber. This makes the compartment open to the outside environment, and able to reject heat from the controlled internal IT environment without compromising the containers ISO footprint. The floor is then modified to have a 10 degree slope, which ensures any moisture or rain can safely drain out of the container thorugh our integrated drains. All of this means that outdoor equiment such as HVAC can be installed all in one integrated system, and all behind our robust security mesh to delivery a tamper-free contained soltuion.

Installing and safely securing internal hardware such as IT racks, cabinets and distribution boards can be challenging. In other
