Through the netTerrain platform, users can easily configure layouts with integrated access to Siemon’s WheelHouse Advanced Data Centre Solutions, including cabinets, racks, cable management, copper and fibre connectivity, and power distribution units. Siemon PowerMax intelligent PDUs that deliver real-time monitoring and control of power usage, capacity and environmental conditions also integrate with the netTerrain platform for users to monitor data centre power at the device or outlet level.
“Today’s data centres are more complex than ever before, with thousands of connections linking a wide range of devices, cards and ports all occupying physical space in racks and cabinets and consuming power,” says Frank Velleca, Siemon’s market manager for Strategic Projects. “We are excited to partner with Graphical Networks and integrate our data centre solutions into the netTerrain DCIM platform to help our customers maximise space and capacity, manage assets, lower power and cooling costs, reduce downtime, and properly plan and forecast for growth.
“We have been searching for the right data centre hardware manufacturer to partner with for some time,” comments Jan Durnhofer, CEO of Graphical Networks. “It is an honour to have been selected from a large pool of possible DCIM vendors for this partnership. Siemon is a well-known and respected manufacturer with a large presence not just within the United States, but in the many other countries where Graphical Networks also has a presence.”
