SWITCHED AND MANAGED FUNCTIONALITY

Eaton Corp, Cleveland, introduces new switched and managed function levels for its portfolio of Powerware enclosure power distribution units (ePDU), which help IT managers address escalating power requirements in data centers and high-density rack environments. The tiered set of ePDU products are offered along two dimensions—power capacity and functionality—which help match appropriate features and power ratings for applications. The units provide advanced metering, monitoring, and management capabilities, and complement Powerware or third-party uninterruptible power systems by distributing power to up to 45 receptacles where conditioned power is distributed to multiple pieces of equipment. The units feature receptacle-level control, a Web-server interface, user-defined sequencing of outlets, and virtual grouping of outlets to permit single-click reboots for multicorded servers. IT managers can remotely monitor power consumption down to the individual receptacle level.

STERILIZABLE ASSET TAG

Awarepoint Corp, San Diego, is offering T2S, an active radio frequency identification (RFID) real-time location system (RTLS) asset tag that is sterilizable via steam autoclave and common-liquid sterilization methods without removing it from equipment. Hospitals have been unable to use active RFID solutions to track some equipment because asset tags could not withstand cleaning and sterilization, but these tags help staff members locate equipment through the sterile processing department to determine if it is clean or dirty. The tags are tested to endure standard autoclave cycles at temperatures up to 135ºC, and sterilize-process workflows can be remotely monitored. The system alerts staff via e-mail, pager, or system reporting if sterile protocols have been compromised, such as when equipment moves from one sterile area to another before being processed by the sterile processing department.
