RiMatrix Data Center

The modular platform for reliable IT infrastructure

With RiMatrix, Rittal offers a user-friendly system platform that has been specially designed to meet the requirements of highly controlled and regulated industries. Standardised IT solutions create a uniform, secure basis, while modular and scalable equipment enables the infrastructure to be expanded and upgraded flexibly and economically. Whether centralised data centres or decentralised edge applications – our RiMatrix solution guarantees future reliability and suitability for every application.

IT cooling

Efficient cooling performing at the highest standard

The Liquid Cooling Package (LCP) from Rittal is a powerful cooling solution that can be flexibly integrated into server racks. LCP extracts hot air and returns cooled air, which increases efficiency, especially when used with cold aisle containment. Our LCPs are available in cooling capacities from 10 to 60 kW and are perfect for upgrading existing IT infrastructures.

IT power

Intelligent and flexible power distribution

Our Power Distribution Units (PDUs) have been specially developed for efficient power distribution in modern IT environments and for use in server racks. With advanced energy measurement and monitoring functions, the PDUs offer accurate monitoring of power consumption. Thanks to their seamless integration into existing IT infrastructures and the option to upgrade with modules such as surge protection and slot covers, our PDUs are a flexible and future-ready solution for growing data centres.

IT monitoring

Reliable monitoring and control

Our CMC III is a reliable and flexible monitoring and control system for network and server racks. With PoE support and redundant power supplies, it offers maximum reliability and operational consistency and uptime. It accurately monitors temperature, humidity, access, smoke levels, power supply and other environmental factors. Thanks to the intuitive web interface, the system can be configured quickly and integrated seamlessly into your IT infrastructure.

Benefit from efficient monitoring, automated processes and significant savings potential that make your IT system future-proof.

IT security

Protection to the highest level: modular IT security solutions

The protection of personal data is a key issue, particularly in the financial sector. Our Micro Data Center Level E offers comprehensive protection against physical hazards such as fire, water, dust, unauthorised access and sabotage. Thanks to its modular design, it can be flexibly adapted to your specific requirements. At the same time, it meets the highest security standards, tested and certified by accredited institutes.

For additional protection, we offer you security rooms that guarantee digital, technical, logical and physical security. Whether as a basic security room (GSR) or high security room (HVR) – they protect IT infrastructure with a system-tested and approved design and can be flexibly integrated into existing buildings thanks to their room-within-a-room solution.

Your advantage

IT infrastructure made easy

Standardised modular solutions with user-friendly flexibility

Organisations in highly controlled and regulated industries face the challenge of complying with strict legal requirements while operating an efficient IT infrastructure. Larger companies often have the resources to meet these requirements, while smaller players and FinTechs with limited financial and human resources must still adhere to the same standards.

Rittal offers a user-friendly modular product range for companies of all sizes. Standardised IT infrastructure solutions enable systems to be brought up to a secure, reliable and uniform operating condition. Modular and scalable solutions offer the flexibility to modify and upgrade infrastructures to meet ever-more demanding challenges. In this way, Rittal combines efficiency, security, reliability, sustainability and flexibility – perfect for every requirement.

Data protection, stability and robustness for the financial sector

IT infrastructure that meets the highest security requirements

The introduction of new technologies requires adherence to complex regulatory requirements, particularly with regard to data protection and compliance. Furthermore, digitalisation increases the risk of cyberattacks, which not only endangers sensitive customer data but can also affect operational stability and robustness.

With its modular IT security solutions, Rittal offers comprehensive physical protection for IT infrastructures in the financial sector. Sensitive data can be securely stored in our safe solution, the Micro Data Centre Level E, and larger data centres in our basic protection or high-availability rooms. These solutions guarantee the highest security standards and can be flexibly integrated into existing systems to meet the increasing requirements for data security and accessibility.

Integrating and streamlining technologies, exceeding customer expectations

Efficient IT solutions for customer-specific and competitive financial services

Artificial intelligence, blockchain and big data are revolutionising the financial sector: they facilitate more efficient credit decisions, more accurate fraud detection and, thanks to open interfaces, innovative services that impress customers and drive the market forward. Blockchain also creates transparency and security in transactions, whether in payment transactions or smart contracts.

With its “Edge Data Center” solutions, Rittal offers an intelligent IT infrastructure to better deliver personalised customer experiences. These modular data centres process data directly on site, resulting in minimal latency times and enabling real-time analyses. This allows your company to respond quickly to individual customer needs and offer customised services.

Sustainability as a competitive factor

Efficient IT infrastructures for a green financial sector

Sustainability is increasingly becoming an important, even decisive factor for financial institutions. Alongside complying with regulatory directives, customers and investors are also looking for environmentally friendly strategies and visible measures to reduce the carbon footprint. At the same time, IT systems must be designed to be energy-efficient in order to reduce operating costs and conserve resources.

Rittal can provide you with sustainable solutions such as energy-efficient cooling technologies and durable equipment of the highest quality. These technologies minimise energy consumption, reduce emissions and enable financial institutions to achieve their sustainability goals – without compromising performance and reliability.

Reliability without compromise

Fail-safe IT infrastructures for maximum uptime and performance

In the financial sector, reliability, interoperability and redundancy are key requirements to ensure smooth operation even under maximum capacity utilisation and load.

With Rittal, you get IT solutions that have been specially developed for continuous operation and with critical applications. Our modular product range offers redundant systems and seamlessly integrated equipment that guarantee maximum uptime and operational performance. Thanks to the high level of interoperability, our solutions can be easily integrated into existing IT infrastructure, while redundancy set-ups ensure seamless fail-safety.  This allows you to create an infrastructure that is not only reliable, but also future-proof.
