New, automated Environmental Monitoring and Access Control (EMAC) solutions from Nexans manage and control power and cooling parameters in data centres and similar facilities. EMAC performs continuous, real-time assessment and alerts operators to pre-set event thresholds concerning humidity, temperature, electrical and power consumption. Actual power use can be metered and plotted over time for on-going analysis. LANsense, Nexans’ advanced Intelligent Infrastructure Management (IIM) solution, includes a dedicated Data Centre Edition integrating EMAC into an enterprise wide, IIM solution for integrated functionality. EMAC is also available as a ‘stand alone’ component linked to specific equipment or areas.
