Improve smart cabling Solutions

Cabling System Overview

A smart cabling system began to appear in the middle of the 1980s S. The main reason was that the network administrator was very hard to manually record cabling link information, they also want to monitor the cabling system in real time.

The real-time cabling system simplifies the process of moving, adding, and modifying MAC by using work orders generated by computers. The Network Ports supported by the smart cabling system in the network connection or communication room can monitor the progress of these work orders in different regions. The network administrator can determine the sequence of movement, addition, and modification, as this is closely related to the physical layout of the active and passive devices. Technical staff can get real-time feedback, precisely understand the implementation of the connection and plug-in, and check whether all connections are correct and functions are normal.

How to Reduce the network failure time and simplify the network MAC maintenance time (mobile, increase, and change) has become an increasingly serious problem in network management of many large and medium-sized enterprises. In China, after more than a decade of rapid development, the cabling project has started from the initial infrastructure period to the management and application period. The concept of smart cabling solutions has become more and more accepted.

Today, the development of information technology and the increasing demand for network applications make the network infrastructure more and more complex. As the business expands, many developing companies continue to expand their networks, the management of network infrastructure becomes more and more complex.

A reasonable and optimized smart cabling solution can make the enterprise's cabling system and network system run more stably. Therefore, it is useful to understand this knowledge, so we discussed the issues that need to be paid attention to in the smart wiring solution. Here we will share with you some of them, hoping they will be useful to you.

Software and Hardware

The AMPTRAC system implements a complete and organic combination of hardware and software systems. You can use this system to obtain the Configuration Structure and running status of the cabling and network systems in real time, it also monitors and generates alarms for various illegal operations through pre-defined policies. The system can also be integrated with existing network management systems (such as HPOpenView, CAUnicenter, and IBMTivoli) to provide users with more complete management services.

This system can change any cabling system and devices connected to it into a smart network, while reducing the cost and time consumption caused by manual management of the cabling system. The system is still based on the traditional AMPNetconnect110 modular structured cabling system. You can use any manufacturer's network products, the difference is that the system adds a metal sensor pad (sensorpad) to each RJ-45 port of the distribution frame, a metal pin is added to the outer side of the jumper, and the metal pin is in contact with the sensor pad of the 110 distribution frame, 110 distribution frame via I/O cable and networkAnalyzer (Analyzer.

The network analyzer and iTracs software can monitor the connection status between the distribution frame and between the network equipment and the distribution frame in real time and dynamically. The combination of AMPTRAC hardware and iTRACS software system makes up for the lack of physical layer links in the previous integrated network management system, and is a revolutionary method for network control and archive management.

This unified infrastructure management system can automatically generate a complete physical topology of the network system in a telecom or data center, and automatically manage it through the real-time physical layer, provides real-time and complete network fault diagnosis and disaster recovery documents, and continuously records the addition, movement, and deletion of network cabling systems in real time, this can significantly reduce the workload for network administrators to manually record network connections. When a network failure occurs, the network administrator can resolve the fault as quickly as possible, thus greatly reducing the losses caused by network downtime.

Enterprise Analyzer

1. The height is 1U or 6U.

2. analyzer with 1U height can monitor 240 ports

3. The analyzer with a standard 6U height can monitor 480 ports. You can monitor up to 1920 ports by adding an expansion card (six expansion slots in the analyzer ).

4. Each expansion card in the 6U height analyzer can monitor 240 ports

Department-level Analyzer

1. analyzer provides 128 monitoring ports through the DB25 connector and a RJ-45 Connector

2. provide two continuous outputs for controlling the extended Devices

Analyzer

Analyzer is divided into enterprise-level and department-level. enterprise-level analyzer has three types of configurations: Independent, master, and connection. You can configure ports from 240 standard ports to 1920 according to your requirements. Independent analyzer can be used independently and cannot be connected to other analyzer (master or connection type ).

The master analyzer cannot be connected to other master analyzer or independent analyzer, but it can be connected to a maximum of 9 connected analyzer. The connection analyzer is mainly used to expand the connection capability of the master analyzer, the length of the connection cable cannot exceed 15 meters. Both stand-alone and master analyzer are connected to the database through 10BASE-T Ethernet and TCP/IP protocols.

Timely and automated Physical Layer Management is a rapidly growing market. The user's awareness of the need for integrated network management solutions is being strengthened. The smart wiring system can reduce the ever-changing network management pressure and minimize the network interruption time. A complete smart wiring solution is of great interest.

This is where the cabling policy is described. We hope that the readers will benefit from this article and will continue to provide relevant resources for you in future articles.
