OVERVIEW

Opengear environmental devices provide monitoring and alerting solutions for an IT infrastructure’s physical environment. Detect changes in temperature, humidity, smoke and motion or the presence of water in data centers and remote sites. Set up automated response sequences through SMS, email or even Twitter through custom scripts. View the ambient temperature and humidity of a remote environment and set the device to automatically send progressive alarms if they rise – from warning levels to critical alerts. The EMD5000 also monitors the status of one or two external dry contacts, which can be connected to a smoke detector, water detector, vibration or open-door sensor giving enhanced visibility into your remote sites.

Our environmental devices plug into the serial ports on Opengear console servers and enables remote monitoring using a standard web browser. Alerts are sent via email, SMS and SNMP traps. Automated response sequences can be initiated by environmental trigger events. Reports can be accessed remotely using standard web browsers and data logged with time stamps.
