SNMP-enabled Sensors for Green Data Center Environments

Spinwave’s SNMP gateway reduces data center operating costs with standards-based monitoring of temperature, relative humidity, and power consumption

Westford, MA–Spinwave™ Systems, Inc., a leading provider of wireless sensors, I/O devices, and controllers that reliably and cost effectively measure, monitor, and manage energy consumption in all types of commercial structures, today introduced the Spinwave SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Gateway. Spinwave’s SNMP Gateway communicates with Spinwave’s A3 wireless battery-powered sensors to provide temperature and relative humidity information critical for optimum data center performance and low-cost operation.

Spinwave’s wireless networks and devices give data center administrators a less expensive alternative to conventional hard-wired systems because they are:

  • Easy to deploy
  • Flexible
  • Portable
  • Scalable
  • Less expensive to install
  • Less expensive to engineer and commission

“Data center managers here and abroad always have to keep a close eye on temperature and humidity in their facilities,” said William LaPointe, President and CEO of Spinwave Systems. “Failure to do so can result in reduced infrastructure life and equipment failure caused by high temperatures, drastic temperature changes, static electricity buildup at low humidity points, and condensation formation at high humidity points. Spinwave’s new SNMP gateway and wireless devices seamlessly integrate with IT management systems, so each network agent can send notifications without being asked. That’s a huge advantage for data center personnel and the enterprises they serve.”

Spinwave’s wireless devices and SNMP gateway eliminate potential problems by providing real-time data on server room air conditioning, heating, and airflow. They keep servers operating at maximum capacity while being as energy efficient as possible.

In addition to the SNMP gateway, Spinwave also offers BACnet, Modbus, and LON-based gateways.
