Sensaphone IMS-4000

Whether you have a small room, or a large data center, the Sensaphone IMS-4000 System provides complete monitoring for your computer facility. It is designed to monitor your entire infrastructure, which includes the environment, the physical security, and the network operation.

The Sensaphone IMS-4000 system is a stand alone infrastructure monitoring system with an integrated voice and modem, an internal UPS, flash-disk storage, and a web server, in a simple-to-install 1U rackmountable package. From the wide array of its plug-and-play monitoring devices to its sophisticated software, the IMS-4000 is a complete, flexible, integrated system.

Environmental Monitoring
Monitor critical environmental conditions such as Temperature, Humidity, Smoke, Sound Level, Motion, Water, Intrusion, and Power Outages with the IMS-4000 Host and Node. Each Host and Node unit supports up to eight Environmental Sensors. When a sensor exceeds the threshold you configure— high temperature for example—you are notified by the IMS-4000 about the condition. Lights on the face of the IMS Host instantly reveal any outstanding problems. With sound level monitoring you can be notified if an audible alarm goes off, and you can remotely listen in, via the Host unit, to the server room to assess the situation yourself at any time.

IP Monitoring
The IMS-4000 monitors IP Devices through pinging and port availability. When a network component becomes unavailable, the IMS-4000 notifies you about which IP device is unavailable. You can monitor the status of network links, routers, printers and servers—any device which has an IP address. Each IMS-4000 Host and Node can monitor up to 64 devices. When a device does not respond to the IMS query, it contacts you immediately to alert you to the situation.

Notification
When a problem occurs in your network, the IMS-4000 will find you and notify you of the problem no matter where you are. Multiple communication interfaces— Ethernet port and standard telephone interface— guarantee that you get the message. You receive early notification before a problem turns into a disaster. The integrated modem / voice interface of the IMS-4000 Host means network events and environmental problems are sent to you in your own voice. When all you have is a phone, you will still know what’s going on in your network. You get the message fast.

Status
Curious about your network? You can always obtain status information about your infrastructure—anytime, anywhere. Call into the IMS-4000 using your computer’s standard dial-up networking. The IMS Console software operates the same remotely as it does locally for complete management and control of your IMS system. If you’re not near a computer, then just pick up any phone and call into the IMS-4000: It will tell you in a real voice report the status of all conditions.

Sensaphone IMS-4000 Host

A COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY MONITORING SYSTEM THAT GUARDS AND REPORTS THE INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW.

Introducing the Sensaphone IMS-4000, a stand-alone infrastructure monitoring system with integrated voice and modem, internal UPS, flash-disk storage, and a web server, in a simple-to-install 1U-rackmountable package. From the wide array of its plug-and-play monitoring devices to its sophisticated software, the IMS-4000 is the complete, flexible, integrated system.

Get critical environmental status information, such as temperature trouble, humidity problems, power outages, unauthorized access, and more, sent directly to you.

Receive instant notification through a voice telephone call, an alpha-pager message, an e-mail message, an SNMP trap, or a fax report.

Monitor important IP devices in single rooms, in buildings, across the city, even across the country.

Control power to your equipment.

Scale your needs to match your growing infrastructure. Monitor one room or an entire network. Add up to 32 networked IMS devices.

Sensaphone IMS-4000 Node

Extend your monitoring capability across multiple locations with the IMS-4000 Node. Each Node offers 64 more IP addresses, 8 more environmental sensors and additional power monitoring to your system.

Each IMS-4000 Host can manage up to 31 Nodes, giving you the capacity to monitor 256 environmental elements, 2048 IP addresses and power in 32 separate locations.

Sensaphone IMS-4000 Powergate

Ideally suited to allow remote rebooting of network equipment, the IMS-4000 PowerGate is a rack-mounted, intelligently controlled outlet strip.

Each of the eight outlets on the PowerGate can be automatically or manually switched on or off via the IMS-4000 Host or Node.The unit supplies a maximum of 15 Amps of current and is protected by a 15 Amp breaker.

Rebooting can be accomplished via e-mail, telephone, or through events which occur in your network.

Sensaphone IMS-4000 Sensors and Additional Devices*

EASY INSTALLATION

Each IMS Solution Sensor connects to the Host or Node input with an RJ-45 jack. Because the sensors utilize your existing Category-5 structured wiring system, no special wiring or schematics are needed to install them. Simply locate where you want to place a sensor, attach a standard patch cable, plug it into your patch panel and do the same in your server room to connect your sensor to the IMS-4000. It’s no different than wiring up a workstation or a printer.

Once connected, the IMS-4000 will automatically recognize the type of sensor installed and configure it for you, using a standard template that you can modify. Because the IMS-4000 supplies power and configuration data for each sensor, the IMS-4000 can detect faults with your sensors: If there’s a cable disruption or your sensor is accidentally unplugged, you’ll know it.

Each IMS Host or Node attaches to your Ethernet network via the IMS Network Interface for monitoring of your network events.

FEATURES

The SCALABLE SOLUTION

Whether your monitoring needs are a single server room or a wide area-network, IMS-4000 is the solution that will grow with your needs.

Each IMS-4000 network begins with an IMS-4000 Host unit. From the Host you can network additional remote monitoring Nodes, extending the reach of your IMS Solution.

• Each Host supports up to 31 IMS-4000 Nodes

• Host and Node each monitor 8 environment conditions

• Supports 64 IP addresses per Host and Node

• Internal battery backup

• 1U rack-mountable configuration, or wall-mountable

• 230/115v auto-power sensing

• 100% Fault Tolerant: The IMS-4000 Host and Node have no moving components—non-volatile storage eliminates disk problems.

• Internal UPS: Each unit contains its own internal UPS so that power failures will not stop it from getting the message out when your infrastructure is in trouble.

• Cable failure: The IMS-4000 even senses the condition of cable connections. If a cable failure occurs in your infrastructure, you’ll be notified immediately.

• Monitor more than your network: With the use of the IMS Dry Contact Bridge, you can monitor devices outside your network that affect its environment, such as air conditioners and UPS systems.

• Data Logging: Full event-history and trending are provided with the IMS-4000 Data Logging feature. Userselectable sampling lets you store critical information about your infrastructure by the minute, hour or day. Data can be used for graphing, database or auditing and review.
