AKCP securityProbe 5ESVA – Modular monitoring for IT and industrial environments
AKCP securityProbe 5ESVA
The AKCP securityProbe 5E is a professional monitoring solution built for server room and data center monitoring. Designed for critical infrastructures such as banks, insurance providers, government facilities, and industrial sites, it combines modular architecture, strong protocol support, and broad sensor compatibility to ensure reliable IT infrastructure monitoring.
Sensor Integration for Comprehensive Monitoring
Equipped with eight RJ45 smart sensor ports, the securityProbe 5E auto-detects connected sensors using AutoSense technology. This makes setup simple and immediate, with live data shown via its web interface. Common sensors include:
- Temperature sensors for precise climate control
- Combined temperature & humidity sensors
- Airflow sensors for cooling optimization
- Smoke detectors for early fire alerts
- AC/DC power meters for energy usage monitoring
- Thermal map sensors for 3D rack hotspot analysis
- RFID swing handle locks for physical access security
Using E-Sensor8 or E-opto16 modules, expansion up to 500 sensors is supported, making it suitable for large-scale data centers and industrial facilities.
Security and Integration
With optional dry contact modules, the securityProbe 5E easily integrates with building and security systems, including fire alarms, UPS units, and HVAC equipment. Combined with RFID locks, it offers a holistic monitoring and security solution.
Alarm Management
Flexible alerting ensures administrators remain informed. Supported alarm channels include:
- Encrypted email notifications
- SMS alerts via 3G/4G modem
- SNMP integration with PRTG, Nagios, SolarWinds
- HTTPS-based secure communication
- Custom escalation policies for SLA compliance
Technical Platform
Based on robust Linux OS, the 5E offers:
- i.MX25 ARM processor
- 128 MB NAND flash + SD slot (16 GB)
- Operating range –35 °C to +55 °C
- SNMP v1/v2/v3, Modbus TCP/RTU, MQTT/MQTTS
- SSL/HTTPS for secure communication
- Optional GSM/LTE modules for mobile alerts
- Highly efficient operation at only ~1 Watt
Visual Surveillance & Event Display
A key feature is support for up to four IP cameras, combining sensor monitoring with video. With map-based alarm overlays, administrators can pinpoint events within building layouts visually, linking values with video evidence for maximum reliability.
Scalability
With E-Sensor8 and E-opto16 modules, up to 500 sensors are supported. RS485 allows integration of modules up to 300 m away, extending monitoring to distributed infrastructures across campus sites or remote facilities.
Application Scenarios
- Server room monitoring – environmental & security control
- Data center monitoring – combined sensors, video, access
- Facility management – integration of building tech
- Industrial sites – process and safety monitoring
- Telecom & remote sites with GSM alert integration
Conclusion
The AKCP securityProbe 5E is a next-generation monitoring platform combining IT infrastructure, physical security, and facility management. With broad sensor options, powerful alarms, video surveillance integration, and scalable expansion, it delivers a future-proof monitoring solution for critical environments.
