- Environmental disruption
The number one cause of downtime for remote locations, environmental problems go beyond worries of fires and floods. Cooling and power are key points of exposure and become more so as equipment density increase.
- Human error
We call this the ‘unspoken epidemic’ because no one likes to discuss human error and the tremendous impact it can have on availability. But the fact is it’s the second greatest cause of downtime in remote or unsupervised locations because systems are often housed in janitor closets wiring closets and other less than optimal settings.
- Physical theft
As assets become smaller and more efficient with hot swappable drives, they become more attractive targets that are easier to steal. Physical attracts against digital assets are often overlooked and are a source of real concern.
- Sabotage
Thrust into the forefront of everyone’s minds as a result of current events, terrorism is now something each of us must plan for, regardless of the probability. But there are very real threats within our own building from disgruntled employees who are far more likely to strike and succeed.
netlink Infrastructure has an active monitoring system designed to protect against the threats of interruption in the data center as well as distributed, understaffed locations. Three critical data points are monitored - environmental, visual and audio - to deliver a robust monitoring and protection solution over an IP network.
The system includes a base station appliance, environmental sensors, color camera, and integrated software that assesses the severity of threats and provides notification. The Centralized Management console is a central station platform (application) that can communicate with, configure, manage, archive, and provide trend analysis on data coming from as many as appliances throughout a distributed enterprise. Users receive alarms and notification via e-mail, phone or pager, and in the form of text messages or video clips.
The netlink Infrastructure has the only product available today that leverages your current IT infrastructure and the power of the Web. An award-winning, patented IP-based technology means no custom install, no hassles, and no extra expense. The solution integrates fully with industry leading network monitoring systems. Best of all, the system is housed in a self-contained plug-n-play package and can be installed easily.
