26. 3 mobile numbers can be pre-set,
where the SDS will send the
alarm messages to.
In order to do so, a SIM card
(with the security pin disabled)
must be located in the slot of the
GSM modem, which is at the rear
of the SDS.
Paramount conditions:
- Insert a valid SIM card in the GSM
modem
- Modem must be connected
- Modem must have signal and its led
must have a green light, which must
blink slowly (pulse-type)
Important: always put the country

69. Conclusions
www.ast-global.com AST Confidential

70. • Essential to Plan for the next 10 years, considering the
Companies´ needs and its criticity, legal environment,
resiliency needs...
• Security Vs. catastrophic events is a must: fire and water
are main risks. DC thermal stability must be ensured!
• Modularity: essential to adapt to the future. Modular
“Smart Shelter” building technique is ideal.
• Scalability: importance of planning ahead for added
power and cooling equipment.
• Mobility and Outdoors DC: the future. Containerized or
Smart Shelter modular.
• Power Efficient: thermal insulation provides great side
benefit; DC consolidation and virtualization. GREEN
