Jacarta interSeptor Server Room Monitoring

The Jacarta interSeptor can protect data centres, server rooms and racks by preventing computer equipment damage and data loss due to over-heating, excess moisture, water ingress, fire, power failures, security breaches, and many other potentially catastrophic environmental threats.

Already used by thousands of leading organisations worldwide, interSeptor is an IP network device that monitors your IT environment 24/7 and remotely alerts you to problems immediately. interSeptor can be remotely monitored via a web browser or SNMP, and alarms from the interSeptor can be relayed to key IT personnel via email, SNMP, telephone voice and SMS alerts.

If you wish to monitor up to 2 x Temperature/Humidity sensors and up to 4 Go-Probe alarm sensors, please read on. Alternatively, if you need more sensors, the interSeptor Pro supporting up to 24 Temperature/Humidity sensors is also available.

interSeptor is a full-featured, scaleable network environmental monitoring device designed to remotely monitor temperature, humidity and other environmental conditions in data centres, IT rooms and racks. Email and SNMP alerts are available as standard, but combined with our unique Alert Centre facility, interSeptor can also provide automated telephone voice and text alerts 24/7 to give early-warning of impending computer room problems.

Designed for ‘out-of-the-box’ operation, interSeptor is supplied with a dual temperature/humidity sensor, with a second temperature/humidity sensor available also. A range of optional ‘Go-Probe’ sensors to detect security breaches, power failures, smoke and water leaks can also be quickly added to the interSeptor system to provide comprehensive monitoring of your critical environments.

Temperature/Humidity

High and low warning and critical temperature and humidity thresholds can be configured in the interSeptor to ensure alarms are raised when room or rack conditions are abnormal. The hysteresis configuration facility ensures that alarms are not continually triggered when levels are ‘floating’ around the configured thresholds.

Water Leak

The interSeptor water leak sensor is supplied with 3m or 18m of leak detection cable. The cable can be run under air conditioning units, in ceiling voids, under raised floors, under pipes, and around room perimeters to provide a comprehensive, easy-to-install, leak detection facility.

Smoke

The unique sensor connectivity design of the interSeptor facilitates installation and monitoring of the smoke detector, especially on ceilings. The cable connection need only be run from the temperature/humidity sensor which will typically already be installed at an elevated level.

Security

The security sensor option is a magnetic reed contact sensor, ideal for monitoring rack or room door access.

Power

The power sensor will detect the presence or otherwise of utility power.

Universal

The Universal sensor is an interface cable that can be connected to any device offering an open or closed or high/low output. interSeptor can monitor this output for changes in state and alarm accordingly. The Universal sensor can be connected to equipment such as generators, air conditioning units, printers, UPS, security systems, fire alarm systems, etc.

Browser

interSeptor can be monitored and managed ‘out-of-the-box’ via its comprehensive browser interface.

Key features include:

Visual ‘comprehensive’ interface for quick identification of temperature/humidity or sensor alarms

Straightforward labelling of sensors to identify location and type of sensor

Quick configuration of alarm thresholds, Email recipients, trap receivers, system information

Viewing of extensive event and detail files, all of which can be exported in .csv format into excel, etc.

Java

A java window can be launched via the interSeptor browser interface to display real-time meters or graphs for each sensor being monitored, as well as for historial and extended historical data recorded by the interSeptor.

Network Management

interseptor can be integrated into network management systems supporting SNMP, such as WhatsUp Gold and HP Openview.
