Smart way to protect your assets

Smart option … InfraSolution from MFB

 

As information technology takes on increased importance, the protection of data and assets is ever more critical.

 

MFB, a leading provider of high quality racks, cabinets, consoles and enclosures, has recognised the need for a family of competitively priced highly reliable, scalable cabinet access control and monitoring systems. 

 

The company now offers InfraSolution products to enhance rack level security and equipment efficiency.

 

InfraSolution uses remote rack IP door access with swipe card control, incorporating temperature and humidity monitoring. 

 

It is a must for data centre operation managers, IT administrators and facilities managers.

 

InfraSolution is designed to allow cabinet control and monitoring of door handles, including temperature and humidity for up to 200 cabinets over either LAN or WAN environments. 

 

The web based GUI (Graphic User Interface) management software allows up to eight simultaneous users to access and control different cabinets. 

 

Only authorized employees can gain access – as specified by the administrator – to individual enclosures in specific time windows.

 

There are two InfraSolution “out of the box” options – the InfraBox 820 and the InfraBox 840. 

 

The 820 package includes two (front/rear) SmartCard electromagnetic rack handles/cable harnesses and two SmartCards. 

 

The InfraBox 840 package has all the 820 features plus an additional 8 X RJ45 expansion ports that allow the user to control or monitor SmartPDUs and other smart products via a Cat6 cable. 

 

Typically, you can monitor PDUs amperage as well as remotely switching power sockets on and off via IP using the same GUI software. 

 

There are also 2 X RJ11 ports that provide an interface for digital temperature and humidity sensors. 

 

The SmartCard handle is designed for use with either inductive, mechanical or optical door opening/closing sensor and the SmartCards themselves can either be HID or Mifare compatible. 

 

The handle has a built in digital temperature sensor, and for security back up it is supplied with mechanical keys. 

 

The system is available on all S2005 style doors, in single and multipoint configurations, left hand or right hand hinged.
