Remotely Manage Power Individually to Every Piece of Equipment
THROUGH A SIMPLE WEB INTERFACE, IT PROFESSIONALS CAN USE SECURELINX SLP TO MONITOR, REGULATE AND MANAGE POWER TO NEARLY EVERY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT IN THE DATA CENTER – EVEN IF SERVERS OR NETWORKS ARE DOWN.
SECURELINX SLP ELIMINATES UNNECESSARY SERVICE TRIPS TO THE DATA CENTER BY ENABLING SYSTEM ADMINISTRATORS TO REMOTELY CONTROL THE POWER SUPPLY TO CRITICAL BUSINESS EQUIPMENT. IN THE EVENT OF A SERVER PROBLEM OR NONRESPONSIVE SYSTEM, INDIVIDUAL SERVERS CAN BE REBOOTED AND POWERED OFF AND ON. THIS IS ALSO A BENEFIT WHEN SERVER CONFIGURATION CHANGES REQUIRE POWER CYCLING FOR THE CHANGE TO TAKE EFFECT.
THE ABILITY TO REMOTELY MONITOR POWER CONSUMPTION HELPS MAINTAIN SAFE LOADS ON EXISTING POWER CIRCUITS, AND ALERTS ADMINISTRATORS WHEN AND WHERE ADDITIONAL POWER CIRCUITS ARE NEEDED.
