VARICONTROL-S: SECURITY
Organisations depend more and more upon the efficiency of their computer systems. The increasing demands being placed on the ICT infrastructure means down time must be kept to an absolute minimum with computer systems operating 100% efficiently 100% of the time. However, even with a good 99% reliability record it still means your system could be down 15 minutes a day or almost four days a year.
Fortunately the cost of unwarranted down time can be managed and reduced by using a rack monitoring system which will give you warning of system and environment failure. The Varicontrol-S System is able to monitor the direct environment within your cabinet it can even monitor a complete room. It can also be easily integrated and managed with your existing Network Management Software, beneficial for those who use single seat multiple application control.
Different products are available within the Varicontrol-S range. All products work exactly the same. The different types are characterised by the number of available ports. There is a difference between intelligent ports and so called dry contacts. Depending upon the model required the intelligent ports are used for measuring the temperature, air humidity and air flow, the dry contacts are simple on/off contacts.
