Power Monitoring Cables

  • Monitor existing rack power strips
  • Monitor specific computer hardware
  • Energy consumption captured at device level
  • Wireless communications eliminate network connections
  • Current, voltage and power by phase with min/max time stamp

Wireless power monitoring of power strips, hardware and data center equipment

DCR’s Power Monitoring Cable (PMC) works in any size facility, from a remote closet to a data center holding tens of thousands of devices, and easily supports multiple facilities. Energy usage information can be viewed in a variety of ways, including by application, line of business, customer or technology platform providing insight into what is driving growth in energy consumption. Real-time mapping of temperature data makes it easy to see hot spots and show heat and power distribution across a facility.

DCR’s PMC is extremely simple to deploy. Our cables accurately monitor energy usage and communicate instantly with each other via our secure Data Mesh wireless network. Data is integrated directly into your existing operations management and billing systems.

Temperature is measured by each cable. Temperature can also be measured at as many as six points per cabinet using our Environmental Node which tracks humidity as well. Temperature data is displayed in real time on a facility map.
