Manual processes for tracing patching activity and documenting trace information with Excel, Visio, AutoCAD are very time consuming for employees and error-prone. Most existing patch panels are from vendors that do not offer technology to upgrade infrastructure with intelligence.
R&M is different. Accelerate digital and increase your efficiency with real-time automatic documentation of physical connections and visualization in R&M’s easy-to-use DCIM.
The inteliPhy Brownfield Service is a customization program available for patch panels from any vendor, giving you the chance to upgrade non-R&M physical network infrastructure with a Smart Networks IoT layer. Smart Networks is R&M’s architecture to bring intelligence and automation to physical network infrastructures. independent of whether your existing installation is based on any structured cabling vendor, the inteliPhy add-on service enables you to deliver a holistic view of your network and its connectivity in real time.
You don’t only benefit from an IoT-layer custom designed to your infrastructure but also from our DCIM software that allows you to locate and identify your equipment and track any network changes.
