Yes, You can use one of our RJ-45 dry contact sensors in the any of the 8 ports to drive a relay and a temperature sensor to trigger the output to the relay. The dry contact sensor can be configured to output +5 VDC. You have to turn off the auto sense feature and tell the unit (manually) that this is a relay on the port and not a ?security? sensor, which the units web interface will show after it is plugged in. At this point, you would configure the temperature thresholds and create the relay action and link the sensor to the relay. When the unit turns the ?relay? on, you will get 5VDC output to the dry contact. This can also be used to drive a mini solenoid switch or something like that to turn on a larger circuit.

Why Energy Is A Problem For Data Center Growth
USA Data Centers consume 90 billion Kwh of electricity a year. Globally, 3% of total energy is from Data Centers.
Case Study: AKCP Power Monitoring for Colocation Data Centers
Salam offer co location data center services. AKCPs dealer in Saudi Arabia, SETRA, successfully implemented the installation of a power monitoring system using in Line Power Meters (ILPM) to provide billable grade accuracy. This allows Salam to accurately bill their clients who are renting space in the co-location data center facilities.
The requirement was for monitoring of 30 racks. The ILPM were connected to the AKCP sensorProbeX+ devices which provide networked monitoring via a built in user interface and SNMP to their existing network management platform.
