SynapSense™ Bolsters Data Center PowerImaging™ Solution With Branch Circuit Monitoring

07.17.09, 8:00 AM ET  

BusinessWire - SynapSense(TM) Corporation, a leading provider of wireless instrumentation solutions, today introduced Branch Circuit Monitoring, extending the PowerImaging(TM) product line beyond power metering in its industry-leading Data Center Monitoring and Energy Management solution. The company made the announcement at the Data Center Dynamics conference. This capability offers data centers operators a critical tool to optimize the provisioning of power to server racks and the elimination of stranded power.

Combined with LiveImaging(TM), SynapSense's real-time data center thermal mapping capability, PowerImaging allows for monitoring of circuit and rack-level power, enabling phase balancing and identifying locations within the data center best suited for increased density of new servers. Without having knowledge of how much energy is being used by servers on each circuit, data center operators cannot optimize loading. With rack power visibility for all circuits, together with industry-standard power metering and environmentals, SynapSense customers have the most complete tool in the world for delivering a holistic view of all critical data center assets.

"Our mission at SynapSense is to provide our customers with data center tools and technologies that deliver unprecedented visibility and continuous optimization," said Chief Executive Officer Peter Van Deventer. "Having the right level of instrumentation allows our customers to tightly monitor and better provision server power, while seeing real-time changes to environmental conditions and air flow -- all of which enable improved visibility, quantifiable energy savings and higher resiliency."

SynapSense is working with several large customers to implement real-time DCiE (Data Center Infrastructure Efficiency) and PUE (Power Utilization Effectiveness) in their data centers using customized integration services. These projects employ power metering using SynapSense wireless sensors and industry-standard power meters from Square D together with integration of existing points from the building management system. SynapSense Data Center Monitoring and Energy Management solutions have been deployed in data centers operated by Fortune 500 companies from Wall Street to Silicon Valley.

SynapSense is a leading wireless instrumentation solutions provider based in Folsom, Calif. SynapSense offers the world's first wireless instrumentation platform featuring SynapSense OneClick(TM) software architecture, providing customers with a complete software solution and extensive monitoring, tracking and alert capabilities.
