RF Code Overview

• High cost of manual capture of asset information Time Staff

• High cost of inaccurate, out of date information Cost of information latency Non-compliance penalties Lease mismanagement Over provisioning

• Security vulnerability• Job dissatisfaction• Office disruption

• The high cost of wired sensors Difficult to deploy/redeploy Expensive to deploy Inflexible Awkward for use in racks

• Lack of monitoring increases: The high cost of power as power

and cooling costs exceed capital asset costs

Inability to optimize data center for energy efficiency, cooling and asset use
