Architect<br />
of the Data Center<br />

DCIM software plays a critical role in efficiently designing, monitoring, and managing<br />
data centers. R&M’s inteliPhy net is particularly user-friendly and an indispensable aid<br />
when planning and managing the entire life cycle infrastructure.<br />
It’s not without reason that people say: Good<br />
planning is half the battle. This also applies to<br />
data center planning because this has a direct<br />
impact on efficiency, reliability, and scalability.<br />
This is precisely what R&M has designed the<br />
easy-to-operate Data Center Infrastructure<br />
Management (DCIM) solution inteliPhy net<br />
for. Based on the respective requirements,<br />
each data center can be individually designed<br />
using a single floor plan. The software makes it<br />
easy to add racks, structure rows, and define<br />
enclosures. It offers a variety of prefabricated<br />
models for patch panels, active devices,<br />
power supply and PDUs as well as the option<br />
of creating a channel system over the racks<br />
and/or in raised floors. Patch panels can be<br />
easily installed in racks and connected with<br />
pre-terminated trunk cables. The software<br />
helps to find optimal routes through ducts<br />
and generates a complete inventory, including<br />
all cables with correct lengths.<br />
Drag-and-drop to a digital twin<br />
Handling is simple and intuitive using dragand-drop<br />
actions. Realistic visualizations<br />
in 2D and 3D are available at any time to<br />
discuss designs with customers and make<br />
any necessary adjustments directly on the<br />
screen. As soon as the draft is approved, an<br />
inventory list automatically generated from<br />
the design serves as a basis for calculation.<br />
The inteliPhy net database created in this way<br />
is then installed at the end user’s as a digital<br />
twin and is immediately ready to use for the<br />
day-to-day operation of the data center.<br />
Operational phase with asset tracking<br />
and smart auditing<br />
Thanks to the inteliPhy net database created<br />
in the planning phase, current, precise documentation<br />
is available at the beginning of data<br />
center operation. The powerful asset tracking<br />
functions of inteliPhy net enable the identification<br />
of all active and passive devices using<br />
Why inteliPhy net?<br />
