The HP Performance-Optimized Data Center is a containerized data center equipped with power infrastructure, cooling and IT power distribution. The HP Performance-Optimized Data Center (POD) delivers a fast, flexible and efficient path to data center ROI. It can be deployed within weeks instead of months or years and offers advanced cooling infrastructure that is more energy efficient than typical data center build-outs.

The HP POD delivers best-in-class technology to provide flexible and energy-efficient data centers that can ship fully integrated and tested with IT from an HP factory in as little as six weeks - slashing the time for data center build-out. It offers configurations optimized for power density, enabling you to quickly upgrade or extend the capacity of your physical infrastructure.

Provisions for cooling water, power and communication connections are provided. Connections to your central utility infrastructure are required. HP can provide assistance with design and implementation of the infrastructure supply and connections.

The HP POD 2000c is 20 feet (6 meters) and provides flexibility for a variety of technology deployments. The 20 feet/6 meter HP POD 2000c comes with 500U of total rack capacity, with 10 50U industry-standard racks. It gives you up to 290kW, non-redundant power capacity or 145kW capacity with N+N redundancy.
