Reliable Power Cables for Data Centers
As of March 2024, there were more than 11,800 operational data centers worldwide. The United States has the most data centers with 5,388, which is about 45% of the global total.
The growing global need for reliable, high-speed data communications is driving huge investment toward building more data centers throughout the US. The scale of these centers continues to grow, which means the demand for reliable power throughout these facilities has never been greater.
Demand for DLO and Type MV-105 cables has caused most manufacturers to quote extremely long lead times.
AmerCable, the industry leader in short lead times and on-time delivery, is currently quoting 10 -12 weeks for these products.
DLO - Flexible Power Cable
AmerCable’s 2000V DLO is a flexible, single-conductor portable power cable ideally suited for data centers and telecommunications power.
