Disclosed is an integrated data center that provides for efficient cooling as well as efficient wire routing. The data center houses electronic equipment stored in clusters of cabinets. The space inside the data center is shared, such as on a leased basis, between multiple different entities who operate their own electronic equipment. To achieve privacy, security, and cooling air flow, one or more layers of a security paneling surround one or more clusters of cabinets to create a secure interior space. This allows access to only authorized personal, prevents people from viewing into the secure interior space, and allows cooling air flow to pass into the secure interior space to cool the electronic equipment. The security paneling comprises sheets of metal with small apertures. Two or more security panels may be arranged with offset apertures to further prevent viewing of the electronic equipment in the secure interior space.
A facility for maintaining electronic equipment at a cool temperature, the facility comprising:
A perimeter for a cabinet cluster storing electronic devices in a facility, the perimeter comprising:
