AlertWerks Sensor Hub, 2 Sensor Ports plus (2) RS-232 Data Ports for the Power Strip

Quick Facts

Combine hubs, sensors, software, serial device controllers, and IP network cameras to build a fully integrated environmental monitoring system.

Further Details

Work with a wide variety of AlertWerks sensors.

Feature two sensor ports. Some hubs also have serial ports that act as Serial Device Controllers.

Easy network integration.

Just add AlertWerks Sensors to monitor temperature, humidity, water, and more.

Manage the system through a Web browser using the Sensor Hubs’ integral Web servers.

Or manage the system through SNMP, using any standard SNMP management software such as HP® OpenView®.

Network Sensor Hub Manager Software makes it easy to manage multiple hubs.
You back up your servers, you install the latest virus protection, you keep your firewall up to date. But do you also guard against physical threats to your data center? Do you have hot spots in those racks? If the air conditioning breaks down, how long before you get the message that temperatures are climbing out of control? If a sprinkler system goes off, will you know? Has someone been in your cabinets?

Temperature, humidity, water, and even vandalism are real threats to any data center and can shut you down faster than the latest virus making the rounds on the Internet.

AlertWerks from Black Box is an IP-based environmental monitoring system that alerts you when conditions in your data center—or anywhere else you need to protect—exceed predefined limits. So when things go wrong, you’re the first to know. Environmental monitoring helps minimize downtime by alerting you to conditions that cause damage to servers and other network devices.

This fully integrated system is based on “smart” managed Sensor Hubs that work with sensors to track conditions such as temperature, humidity, water, airflow, and more. Most sensors enable you to set minimum and maximum thresholds for triggering an alarm, so you can customize the system to your particular demands. The Security Sensor acts as a burglar alarm by alerting you when the doors to your server room, cabinets, or other secure area are opened.

But there’s more to this system than just sensors—a network camera provides a real-time view of what’s going on in your data center. Combine it with the utility software for incredible versatility in programming photos or video, in storing and managing images, and in controlling pan and zoom features.

Serial ports on the Sensor Hubs and the freestanding Serial Device Controllers function as full-featured serial console servers that enable you to also use the system to access the serial console ports on your network devices. Plus, you can use them to access other serial devices such as printers.

The entire AlertWerks system is fully manageable through any standard Web browser or an SNMP management program such as HP OpenView. You can set it to notify you automatically by e-mail, page, or SNMP traps whenever conditions in your data center exceed limits that you determine. Sensor Hubs even include a modem port, so you can dial in remotely to access management features even if your network goes down.

Sensor Hubs
AlertWerks Sensor Hubs are part of the AlertWerks fully integrated environmental monitoring system, which also includes Serial Device Servers, environmental sensors, and a security camera.

These hubs provide an intelligent link between AlertWerks Sensors and your Ethernet network. They have a built-in Web server, so you can access them across your IP network with any standard Web browser. You can also manage the hubs through Telnet™ or any standard SNMP management software such as HP OpenView. Plus the hubs feature a modem port so you can access them remotely even if your network is down.

When a sensor connected to a hub triggers an alarm, the hub can e-mail or page you and send SNMP traps to up to ten locations.

The Sensor Hubs don’t require additional software. However, you can use the Nework Sensor Hub Manager Software to help you to manage multiple hubs more efficiently.

These 2-Port Sensor Hubs are available in a variety of sensor configurations: temperature, humidity, or temperature plus humidity. Or choose a 2-port sensor with two serial ports for access to your network devices’ console ports.
