Environmental Monitoring for Data Centers

Meraki MT Sensors are devices that can check and guard your data centers. Data centers are important for IT systems, where you keep your computers, data, and network equipment. Data centers must have the right heat and moisture levels and avoid water, fire, or break-ins. Meraki MT Sensors can help data centers do these things by telling you what is happening and warning you if something is wrong.

With Meraki MT Sensors, you can keep your data center safe, working, and efficient and avoid costly problems, such as losing data, stopping work, or breaking things. You can also save money on energy, upkeep, and fixing by finding and solving problems early.

Applications in Action

  • Data Centers: Maintain optimal conditions for sensitive equipment, prevent leaks, and monitor access points.
  • Offices and Event Spaces: Ensure secure, comfortable environments by tracking occupancy, temperature, and equipment access.
  • Remote Facilities: Protect outdoor or off-site locations with water leak detection and door sensors.
