RF Code A740 Environment Monitoring Rack Locator

The A740 Rack Locator is an infrared (IR) signaling unit designed for use in IT data centers with open or closed server racks. When deployed in concert with IR-enabled sensors (and optional A750 Room Locators) the system provides a method of locating tagged assets with rack-level precision. Each Rack Locator transmits an infrared pulse pattern containing a unique 4-digit location code. The intensity of the IR transmissions can be adjusted to achieve complete coverage for open or closed racks with minimal bleed-over to adjacentracks. IR-enabled sensors monitor their environment for incoming IR signals and periodically report both their own unique ID and the applicable IR location code. Sensor transmissions are processed in real-time to quickly locate and identify tagged assets with rack-level accuracy, for open or closed racks.
