## Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to a computer server rack assembly for supporting an electronic unit, per an embodiment. The computer server rack assembly includes a housing, an electric busbar, a first cooling manifold, a second cooling manifold, and at least one rail panel. The housing includes a front space region, a rear space region, a front side, and a back side. The electric busbar is vertically secured to the backside of the server rack and has a power basis of 48 VDC. The first cooling manifold and the second cooling manifolds are vertically secured to the backside of the server rack and are configured to distribute liquid coolant to at least one electronic unit within the housing. The rail panels are configured to be placed within the housing and support an electronic unit within the housing.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A computer server rack assembly comprising:
a housing comprising a front space region, a rear space region, a front side, and a back side opposite to the front side, wherein the housing defines a front space region and a rear space region;
an electric busbar vertically secured to the back side of the housing, wherein the electric busbar is configured to distribute power from a power source to one or more electronic computing devices;
a first cooling manifold extending at least partially vertically and secured to the back side of the housing, wherein the first cooling manifold is configured to distribute coolant to at least one of the one or more electronic computing devices;
a second cooling manifold extending at least partially vertically and secured to the back side of the housing, wherein the second cooling manifold is configured to distribute coolant to at least one of the one or more electronic computing devices; and
a plurality of rail panels disposed within the front and back sides of the housing and configured to support the one or more electronic computing devices.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, further comprising a coolant distribution unit disposed between the front side and back side of the housing.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, wherein a width of the front side is about 48 centimeters.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, wherein the electric busbar is configured to supply about 48 VDC.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, wherein each of the first cooling manifold and the second cooling manifold comprises a quick disconnect.

### Claim 6 (depends on 2)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 2, wherein the coolant distribution unit extends at least partially vertically and disposed within the rear space region.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, wherein the first cooling manifold and second cooling manifold are on opposite sides of the electric busbar.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, wherein the plurality of rail panels are spaced in 6 rack unit increments.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, further comprising a first vertical data connection bar secured to the back side of the housing.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 9, further comprising a second vertical data connection bar secured to the back side of the housing.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, further comprising a power shelf configured to supply power from the power source to the electric busbar.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, wherein the housing is formed of timber.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 1, wherein the housing is formed of steel.

### Claim 14

A computer server rack assembly comprising:
a housing configured to support one or more electronic computing devices;
a power distribution system secured to the housing and configured to distribute power to the one or more electronic computing devices; and
a cooling system secured to the housing, wherein the cooling system is configured to distribute coolant to the one or more electronic computing devices.

### Claim 15 (depends on 14)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 14, wherein the cooling system distributes coolant to the one or more electronic computing devices via a manifold system.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 15, wherein the manifold system is secured to the housing.

### Claim 17 (depends on 14)

The computer server rack assembly of claim 14, further comprising a coolant distribution unit disposed between a front side and a back side of the server rack assembly.

### Claim 18

A method for managing power and temperature in a computer server rack assembly, the method comprising:
distributing power from an electric busbar secured to a side of the server rack to one or more electronic computing devices mounted within the server rack; and
distributing coolant through a first cooling manifold and a second cooling manifold, each cooling manifold extending at least partially vertically and secured to the back side of the server rack.

### Claim 19 (depends on 18)

The method of claim 18, further comprising distributing coolant through a coolant distribution unit disposed between a front side and a back side of the server rack assembly.
