APC NetBotz Rack Sensor Pod 150 (1U Rack-Mountable Expansion)
The APC NetBotz Rack Sensor Pod 150 (NBPD0150) is an architectural expansion module engineered to scale environmental monitoring capabilities across data center racks and IT server enclosures. Occupying a compact 1U rack-mount footprint, this sensor pod provides 6 dedicated input ports to connect additional APC Universal Sensors (such as temperature, humidity, water leak, vibration, and door contact sensors) to your primary monitoring ecosystem.
Designed for maximum deployment flexibility, the Sensor Pod 150 connects to main NetBotz base appliances using Schneider Electric’s proprietary A-Link bus interface. This allows network administrators and facility engineers to daisy-chain multiple pods across distinct rack enclosures over long distances, dramatically increasing sensor density without requiring additional network IP addresses or primary appliances. It comes standard with an included Temperature/Humidity sensor to initiate immediate localized environmental monitoring upon setup.
Key Features & Technical Highlights
- 6 Universal Sensor Ports: Expand your environmental oversight by connecting up to 6 additional APC Universal Sensors to a single pod.
- Proprietary A-Link Connectivity: Daisy-chain multiple sensor pods together over standard CAT5/6 cables to cover extensive rack rows efficiently.
- 1U Rack-Mount Form Factor: Fits standard 19-inch IT equipment racks, optimized for front-rack or rear-rack environmental sensing.
- Broad Appliance Compatibility: Natively integrates with current-gen NetBotz 250A, 750, and 755 base stations, as well as legacy 450, 455, and 570 appliances.
- Included Environmental Sensor: Ships complete with an APC Temperature/Humidity Sensor for immediate out-of-the-box ambient monitoring.
- Global Regulatory Compliance: Fully certified with FCC Class A, CE, VCCI, ICES-003, C-Tick, GOST, and NOM international standards.
