SCOM-100: Server Room Remote Monitoring

 

Introduction

IT infrastructure monitoring is a necessity for all modern companies.

Server down time means losses in productivity and resources. Regardless if the IT equipment in a server room is old or consider as legacy every server room should be protected with extensive monitoring and alarm devices.

 

SCOM-100 is a GSM/GPRS alarming, remote monitoring & control unit with expandable I/O capable to handle demanding applications such as alarming and monitoring of server rooms.

 

 

Requirements

At a server room it is desired to,

 

Alarming & Monitoring

- Room Temperature,  

- Server and IT equipment Temperature,

- Humidity and leakages,

- Fire and Smoke alarming,

- Power

- Access control

 

Local & Remote Control

- Access the room eg. open the door,

- Start an Air-conditioning unit,

- Open a window,

- Sound an intruder siren,

- Engage or disengage power.

 

Functionality

- Monitor measurements in server rooms in geographically distributed server rooms

- Monitor and report data to a central database or SCADA system.

- Alarm immediately using SMS

- Take advantage of a cellular communications network using SMS and GPRS communications

- High expandability

 

Proposal

 

Infinite SCOM-100 is a GSM/GPRS Edge compatible cellular RTU solution designed specifically for remote monitoring of server rooms.

 

Compared with traditional SNMP solutions, that require Ethernet presence, cellular offers a reliable way access server rooms when the existing IT infrastructure has failed.

 

SCOM-100 can communicate with a central database or SCADA system regardless of what kind of IP address it uses over GPRS.

 

In addition, it provides real time data from the remote location allowing users at the central station to issue commands to the remote stations to perform standard control actions because the SCOM-100 supports local functionality , making it a truly PC-free solution.

 

Forget traditional IT solutions. SCOM-100 is a 24/7 RTU that can receive and send SMS alarms instantly while maintaining GPRS connectivity.

 

SCOM-100 is the only device in the world that communicates via SMS and GPRS with users, PCs, other SCOMs in M2M all at the same time.

 

Take advantage of the SCOM-100 OPC Server software that integrates seamlessly with any SCADA system.

 

 

Why SCOM-100

 - All-in-one cellular GPRS quad band solution

 - Real-time data acquisition

 - Easy to implement and maintain

 - Seamless connection to SCADA via OPC server

 - SMS alarms & M2M functionality (one SCOM to another)

-  Low cost expansion IOs
