Powering the Future: Why Overhead Busway Is Built for High-Density Data Centers

AI and high-performance computing are changing how data centers are designed and powered. Rack densities have more than doubled in recent years, and power demands continue to climb. For data center operators and engineers, the pressure to scale faster, reconfigure more often, and support higher loads has made the power distribution decisions more important than ever.

This QuickChat video will focus on overhead busway as the optimal power distribution system for modern data center environments. Chris Osian, Product Manager at Starline, will discuss why busway outperforms traditional RPP-based approaches as power densities increase, and what the right power distribution infrastructure needs to deliver: the capacity to support increasing power densities, the flexibility to change without downtime, and the ability to scale with the facility over time. With over 30 years of proven performance in mission-critical environments, Starline is the name data centers have trusted to deliver on all three.
