For the security of your data center, ATEN provides Photo Door sensor probes that work in tandem with the Power Distribution Units, which allows the monitoring of a rack mounted enclosure´s door access, notifying users when a door has been opened. Various conditions can be monitored with alarms according to customizable minimum/maximum settings.

* The Sensor is an optional accessory and you can use the ATEN PDU without the door sensors. However, if you want to have complete security management of your data center with the full use of ATEN solutions, a sensor installation is required.
