Multi-Sensor & Hub
for monitoring server rooms & remote cabinets
Originally designed for monitoring remote distributed network hubs for the IDA Smart Nation project in Singapore, the Multi-Sensor & Hub is the result of a long analysis of what a sensor box should be able to monitor inside a server room or remote cabinet.
The unique device is an expansion hub for our
sensorgateways, the base unit. The base unit plugs into this device so that you have all into one housing.
It comes with the 10 most commonly required sensor metrics for server rooms, MDF/IDF sites & other edge infrastructure sites:
- temperature
- humidity
- dew point
- shock
- sound
- motion
- power failure
- luminosity (light in Lux)
- smoke sensor
- water leak sensor incl 6ft sensing cable
Next to the above sensors, the unit features 8 dry contact inputs for legacy sensors and equipment. It also features 4 dry contract outputs allowing you to control 3rd party equipment such as HVAC units, generators, ...
Last but not least, the device is a sensor hub: you can expand the device with up to 5 sensors: 4 digital sensors and 1 analog sensor.
10 Sensors - 7 Dry Contact In & 4 Out - Modbus - SNMP - SNMP Traps - Email - SMS - Voice Call - Rack Mountable - Industrial Grade
