One of the best aspects of travel is that everything is new: new sights, weather, foods, even the air is different. And sometimes the language is too. While you may or may not speak Spanish, have fun using some common phrases! Hola, Adiós — Hello, Bye

Por favor, Gracias — Please, Thank you Perdóneme — Excuse me

Me llamo… — My name is…

Encantado de conocerte — Pleased to meet you

¡Vamos! — Let’s go! ¿Cuanto cuesta? — How much does it cost?

¿Puedo usar el bano? — May I use the bathroom? ¿Habla usted Inglés? — Do you speak English? Puerto Rico has its own version of several English colloquialisms. Some of them are much more fun to say! It’s done. — Muerto el pollo (Dead chicken) You’re being a couch potato — Estas hecho una batata. (You’re being a sweet potato.) When hell freezes over — Cuando Colón baje el dedo (when Columbus lowers his fingers). This refers to San Juan’s statue of Christopher Columbus whose fingers will obviously never move.

Has a lot of money — Tiene el banco virao (Has the bank leaning sideways)

Cable Documentation. Automated.

Reduce cable documentation time and cost by up to 50%* when building a new telecom room, locating installed cabling, or replacing a network switch with the RapidID™ Network Mapping System – developed by Panduit.

PLACE. TRACE. REPLACE.

Network engineers despise the process of documenting cabling installations, tracing cables, and troubleshooting cabling-related networking problems.

CABLE DOCUMENTATION IS:

• Tedious • Time consuming • Error-prone Data center outages happen, and they cost money.

40%

of data center outages cost $100,000 - $1,000,0002

Networking/connectivity and human error are top causes of data center downtime.

42%

of ALL outages in the last 3 years are results of human error 3

It’s important to complete the process right the first time.

Add Certainty to Your Data Center

NetShelter Rack PDU Advanced

Our evolving IT landscape continually requires new types of equipment and applications, more capacity, and constant connectivity.

The main challenges:

It’s hard to deploy IT equipment fast enough. Power density requirements keep increasing. Downtime is unacceptable.

Plan for an always-changing future

Power distribution adds a layer of complexity to IT deployments. Because every device needs the right amount of power and the right type of outlet, adding or upgrading PDUs (or finding out you have the wrong type) slows down deployment and can create unexpected costs.

Choose a rack power distribution unit (PDU) that helps you keep up—and be prepared for the future.

One outlet design for all applications

APC NetShelter™ Rack PDU Advanced simplifies and speeds up IT deployments. Use the same PDU for every type of device, and keep up with increasing power needs.

Industry-first 4-in-1 combination outlet design Acts as any of these outlet types
