RFID for Data Centers — Solutions

The dynamic data center

It looks static. It isn't.

A data center can look like a quiet, static room — but it's a complex, dynamic environment built on constant repair, replacement, and equipment upgrades. Keeping an accurate picture of what's where, by hand, is a losing battle.

Passive RFID

Inventory in a fraction of the time.

Barcode scanning is slow — every asset scanned one at a time, costly in man-hours. With passive UHF RFID and a handheld reader, a periodic inventory reads dozens of assets at once.

Faster periodic inventories — read dozens of assets simultaneously, not one at a time.
Less chance of missing assets across racks and rows.
Zero in on the assets that need work with a handheld reader.
Better regulatory compliance with a clean, current record.

Active V-Tag

Automatic, hands-free awareness.

Active V-Tag mesh tags add continuous, hands-free, zone-level location — without wiring passive readers throughout the room. Stick a Fixed-Location tag wherever you want awareness; the tags form a self-healing Zigbee mesh that routes reports wirelessly back to AssetWorx!.

Longer read range than passive — far fewer read points to cover a room.
Sensor monitoring — optional temperature and shock alerts if equipment runs hot or takes a knock.
Zone-level location, hands-free — assets report their area automatically (the mesh settles in about 3–4 minutes), saving inventory man-hours.
No costly reader wiring — the mesh replaces a grid of fixed readers.
