Data Centre Monitoring
Environmental monitoring in data centres is becoming increasingly vital as energy consumption keeps rising and the demands to keep systems running reliably becomes critical to businesses survival. A wireless sensor network solution allows important parameters such as temperature, humidity, wetness and airflow to be easily and continuously monitored. The wireless mesh network also allows monitored points to be changed or added to without the need for specialist skills.
With the increasing rack density of computing power and the introduction of technologies such as Power-over-Ethernet the environmental management challenges for data centre operations are getting increasingly difficult. Flexible and reliable data centre monitoring and control are crucial to give data centre managers the data they need to ensure smooth running. To ensure smooth running requires close control of temperature, humidity, wetness and airflow. With the data centre monitoring solution from Adaptive Wireless Solutions obtaining this information is now more straightforward and cost effective than ever before and our OnCall software offers the option of unparalleled integration between wireless and IP data about equipment and environment.
The wireless data centre monitoring solution has numerous applications including tracking temperature, humidity, energy consumption, ensuring equipment operates within manufacturers specifications in case of warranty claims, and checking power system performance.
Traditional monitoring systems typically require costly wiring to install whereas the Adaptive Wireless data centre monitoring system eliminates this. Wireless sensors can be located virtually anywhere allowing previously inaccessible areas to be monitored. The wireless data centre monitoring system can also be easily reconfigured and relocated as monitoring needs in the environment change. Because the Adaptive Wireless data centre monitoring solution uses self-managing wireless mesh technology moving monitoring points requires no manual reconfiguration of the network which might otherwise require specialist skills, expense and disruption if a traditional wireless or wired approach were used.
