As data center capacity scales to meet unprecedented computing demands, pressure is shifting directly to the electrical infrastructure supporting them. For procurement managers and electrical distributors, much of data center electrical infrastructure sourcing is about securing high-quality medium-voltage (MV) cables that serve as the critical backbone for high-density power distribution. In an industry where 99.999% […]

Parallel Cables
Click to Expand Parallel or paralleled cables are a configuration where multiple cables are combined. Parallels are used to make cable installation easier, since only one reel needs to be set up for installation, rather than one reel per cable. This article will explore the basics of paralleled cables, examining their configuration and the products […]
