NTI Mini Server Environment Monitoring System

Features & Applications

The Mini Server Environment Monitoring System monitors critical environmental conditions (such as temperature, humidity, and water leakage) that could destroy network components in your server room. When a sensor exceeds a configurable threshold, the system will notify you via email, SNMP traps, web-page alerts and a visual indicator (red LED).

• Monitor and manage server room environmental conditions over IP.
• Sensors supported:
  • 2 temperature/humidity sensors
  • 1 liquid detection sensor
  • 4 open-collector input devices
• Alerts are posted in message log, which is accessible through Web user interface.
  • The log can be downloaded as a tab-delimited plain text file.
• Flexible Zero-RU mounting.
  • Mounting tabs included.
• Use in data centers, co-lo sites, web hosting facilities, telecom switching sites, POP sites, server closets, or any unmanned area that needs to be monitored.
• Optional industrial mini server environment monitoring system for high temperature environments. This industrial system has the ability to operate and monitor in harsh environments at high temperatures up to 167°F (75°C).
