ClariPath to Display Sleek Armarac in Glass Window Laboratory Showcase

Thureon Inc., a USA based division of the New Zealand engineering and IT operations company, today announced that ClariPath Laboratories, an innovative anatomic pathology lab in Augusta, Georgia, has purchased two of its flagship Armarac enclosures to protect servers and network equipment in their new state-of-the-art laboratory.

"ClariPath's lab process is its number one differentiator, improving turn-around on clinical testing by 400-500%," said Brett Moody, LIS (Lab Information Systems) Administrator at ClariPath. "We needed a great combination of form and function to get the job done, but also look nice for client tours."

ClariPath's new lab features a plate glass window to showcase their technology to doctors and other clients who tour their facilities. They chose the Armarac's because it provided them far more benefits than a standard 4 rail rack enclosure.

"We decided to wall mount the Armarac's which will save us valuable floor space," said Moody. "The Armarac comes standard with multiple locks which provide added security by allowing independent access for administrators and maintenance technicians. We are confident the Armarac enclosures will add to our reputation as a state-of-the-art laboratory and will leave a lasting impression on our clients."

The Armarac units will house all of the lab's application and connectivity servers with room for expansion. ClariPath is also in the process of transferring to VMware virtualization desktops, staying on technology's leading edge to accelerate lab results for its clients even more.

The advanced design of Armarac enclosures enable all standard rack-mount equipment to be located unobtrusively in work areas to eliminate the need for conventional server rooms. Protecting critical infrastructure against tampering and able to resist fire and water damage, the Armarac clamshell exterior unlocks to reveal a unique hinge system which accommodates 1U and 2U rackmount equipment. Multi-thread mount extrusions accept industry-standard server retention screws from all major vendors including HP, IBM, Sun, Apple and Dell. Armarac enclosures provide the highest level of structural security against theft or forced entry in an elegant design available in a choice of colors.
