The NetBotz 250 from APC by Schneider Electric is an affordable environmental monitoring appliance for all IT environments. It protects your computing equipment from physical threats such as high temperature, humidity, fluid damage, and both malicious and unintentional access events.

With native support for NetBotz wireless sensors, the NetBotz 250 allows for a rapid deployment of your environmental monitoring solution. With its shallow 19" form factor, the NetBotz 250 can be mounted in a rack alongside your other IT gear, or zero-U mounted in the back.




The appliance has six on-board ports for connecting various NetBotz wired sensors, including temperature, temp/humidity, smoke, and spot fluid detection sensors, as well as third party sensors via a dry contact cable. Additional dedicated ports include a beacon port, voltage output, relay output, and Modbus connections, for monitoring the device over Modbus RTU or TCP.

Thresholds, alerts, and notifications are configured through either the NetBotz 250 web UI or via StruxureWare Data Center Expert. The Data Center Expert integration is especially valuable when you need to manage multiple NetBotz appliances through a single pane of glass. For environments that do not require surveillance, the NetBotz 250 is the fastest and most affordable solution to protect IT gear from physical threats.



Best in Class Value

Included with the NetBotz Rack Monitor 250 is a wireless sensor starter kit, including a Zigbee wireless network coordinator and wireless temperature sensor, in addition to a wired temp/humidity cable. This means the NetBotz 250 is ready to start protecting your IT environment within minutes.

Benefits of the wireless sensors include:
Ease of deployment - when in auto-join mode, the NetBotz wireless sensors will be automatically commissioned.
Reduced cabling - wireless sensors are not saddled with high cabling costs and rigid deployments constraints.
Flexibility and adaptability - with magnetic mounting, wireless sensors can be moved periodically to evaluate hot spots or new areas in dynamic IT environments
Protection

Password Security - User-selectable password protection prevents unauthorized access, authorized against LDAP and Active Directory servers.
Manageability

Easy Integration - Integrates with APC racks, NetBotz sensors, and Data Center Expert for easy deployment, configuration, and management.
Browser accessible - View the user interface with a browser. Provides quick access from anywhere on a secure network.
Enterprise management system compatible - Make device information available to your preferred enterprise management system by forwarding SNMP traps (events) across SNMPv1, SNMPv2 and SNMPv3 using the PowerNet MIB
Integrates with StruxureWare Data Center Expert - An IT-ready, scalable access monitoring system that collects, organizes, and distributes critical alerts, surveillance video and key information, providing a unified view of complex physical infrastructure environments from anywhere on the network
