Opengear EMD5000-01 EMD5000 1x Serial RJ-45 External Environment

Description

The Environmental Monitor Device protects critical data center assets from heat, humidity, smoke, water leaks, cabinet intrusion and other environmental conditions Provides IT and facilities managers with aroundthe-clock monitoring of environmental conditions at the rack level Each EMD monitors temperature, humidity, and status of two contacts/sensors Works with Opengear console server ensuring out of band alert transmissions and secure access Readily available smoke detector, vibration sensor, water leak detector and door open/close sensor Maintains log records of temperature, humidity and sensor events Auto-sends alarms on any critical or warning threshold and on contact closure events Email, SMS, SNMP and Nagios alerts enable rapid problem diagnosis and resolution The Opengear EMD5000 environmental monitoring device enables you to remotely monitor environmental conditions using a standard Web browser. You can view the ambient temperature and humidity of the remote environment and set the EMD to automatically send alarms progressively from warning levels to critical alerts. So you are warned if the temperature in a remote equipment rack begins to rise and can plan preventative action. Similarly, a warning of rising humidity in an air-conditioned room could be a sign of a duct leak, open door, roof leak, etc. The EMD also monitors the status of two external dry contacts which can be connected to a smoke detector, water detector, vibration or open-door sensor. The EMD connects to a serial port on any Opengear console server with an adapter and CAT5 cable so authorized users can securely monitor the environment at remote sites. The console server also provides out-of-band access and out- dial failover ensures alerts are transmitted. Each EMD device has one temperature and one humidity sensor and provides two general purpose status sensors in one small module. Each console server can support multiple EMDs providing distributed monitoring any site.
