TIPS TO REDUCE DOWNTIME CAUSED BY HUMAN ERROR
#3 Protect your data center from physical threats with Netbotz video surveillance and monitoring
In previous editions, we talked about the importance of Advanced Operator Training and factory service plans. While both of those are helpful in managing problems once they occur, NetBotz video surveillance and monitoring of the physical infrastructure will help identify potential problems before they become events that can compromise uptime.
NetBotz from Schneider Electric protects your small data center or network closet from physical threats, is an active monitoring solution designed to guard against environmental or human risks, offered in a suite of networked appliances, sensors, access controls and cameras. Completely scalable, NetBotz is designed to safeguard any size environment – from network closets to data centers.
In addition to providing temperature, humidity, door contact, dry contact, spot leak, vibration, smoke and 2-way audio monitoring, NetBotz is capable of video surveillance and monitoring to record human activity. Additional features of NetBotz include integration with StruxureWare Data Center Expert, Power over Ethernet, and user-defined alerts making NetBotz the perfect tool to protect your IT assets from security and environmental threats.
The modular design allows for common sensors among the NetBotz appliances. Optional user-defined alerts can be sent in a variety of formats and are easily integrated into event escalation policies.
Use StruxureWare to manage multiple NetBotz appliances. StruxureWare surveillance licenses enable a single view of multiple cameras, rapid search and retrieval of video, plus ‘tagging’ of important video clips.
