Environmental Telemetry

Temperature & Humidity Visibility

RF Code’s wire-free, easy to deploy environmental sensors provide the visibility and granularity you need to fine-tune the data center environment. They continually transmit ambient readings to ensure equipment remains within optimal thermal envelopes.

Accurate measurements to within 2°F and 4% RH
Continuous transmission of telemetry data to readers
Prevents equipment failures due to localized hot spots

Power Monitoring

Power Feeds & Voltage Monitoring

RF Code’s AC voltage sensor wraps around the outside of an electrical cord and reports whether the cord has power or not, serving as a non-invasive telemetry check.
