RF Code Announces Availability of Sentry Solution For Monitoring Unmanned Edge Sites

RF Code, a pioneer of automated, real-time physical asset lifecycle management and environmental monitoring solutions for data centers, announced the general availability of the company's all-in-one environmental monitoring innovation, Sentry.

Sentry is designed to make it easier for heads of IT to anticipate and respond to potential environmental threats in IT environments such as data rooms and closets. Human error is one of the main causes of unexpected downtime in 'lights out' IT spaces.

Sentry's motion and thermal cameras along with its suite of onboard environmental sensors empowers IT professionals to know exactly what is happening in any space that houses costly, mission critical equipment. Sentry's real-time notifications and dashboards provide deep insights to evaluate the significance of an environmental threat and quickly preempt an issue from escalating.

Without real-time environmental and critical asset monitoring tools in place, these unmanned and unsecure IT spaces can be costly. Unplanned downtime, theft, and breaches can hurt an organization's bottom line. In fact, over 60 percent of failures result in at least $100,000 in total losses, according to Uptime Institute's 2022 Outage Analysis Report, which is up from 39 percent just a few years ago. During that same time period, the share of outages that cost over $1 million increased from 11 percent to 15 percent and that number keeps growing.
