At Data Centre World London on Daxten stand D701: Wire-free monitoring for optimal loads, environmental conditions and improved safety

For data centre or facility managers it is a high priority to ensure the most efficient use of existing power and cooling capacities. To reach this goal it is essential to monitor the power and environmental parameters on a regular basis. By doing this, data centre experts are able to identify, analyse and solve power, thermal or security weaknesses and to improve the power usage effectiveness (PUE) in their data centres. The comprehensive Packet Power wire-free radio monitoring solutions, offered by Daxten and presented at DCW on stand D701, enable the data centre personnel to centrally control and manage several hundred environmental sensors (e.g. for temperature, humidity and differential pressure). In addition managing current parameters like Volts, Amperes, kW, kWh, kVA, phase angle and total current for any branch circuit, switchgear, cabinet, PDU or single IT device. The complete solution is based on wire-free radio technology.

Improved power usage and resource efficiency in your data centre

The main benefit of all wire-free monitoring modules is that they are not connected via cable to each other. As soon as they are activated the monitoring devices instantly begin to share information via a self-configuring wire-free radio mesh network. All measurement data is wirelessly gathered by a system gateway that simply uses the SNMP or Modbus TCP/IP protocol to transmit the data to a dedicated system GUI or a third party BMS or DCIM tool. With this information DC and facility experts have all important power usage and environmental parameters available at a glance and are able to balance loads and to control temperature, humidity and pressure at their cabinets perfectly.
