New PANVIEW iQ™ System delivers next generation, real time network visibility with ZERO footprint
London, UK. 25 June 2008 — PANDUIT™ introduces an industry-first physical infrastructure management system that automates the documentation of physical layer connectivity and provides intelligent patch-field management without need for additional rack space. The PANVIEW iQ™ scanners, which in other systems take up 1 RU, have now been reduced in size and clip into the back of existing patch panels. This innovative design enables organisations to cost-effectively scale their installations as well as conserve valuable rack space and real estate space.
The new PANVIEW iQ™ System provides new functionality which:
• helps increase network reliability and availability by providing real-time information of network status
• helps keep your network secure by monitoring and alerting administrators of any patch field changes or potential security risks
• helps improve efficiency by facilitating steps 1-3 in ITIL V3; planning, implementation, and documentation of connectivity moves, adds, or changes
• further helps achieve ITIL compliance with Physical Inventory Location Tracking
• allows jobs to be run in parallel for increased time and cost savings. Therefore a Red work order can run simultaneously with a Green work order and a Yellow work order.
• is designed for easy integration into new and existing networks.
Part of PANVIEW iQ™ is the PANDUIT™ Physical Infrastructure Manager Software - a web-based application that offers robust performance functions, including automated documentation of network connectivity, change notifications, asset management and reporting, virtual server mapping, and work order management functions. The software enables the network manager to monitor the system remotely and securely. An Application Program Interface (API) built into the software allows integration between the PANVIEW iQ™ System and familiar third-party applications, so that the system slots easily into your existing network infrastructure.
David Palmer Stevens, Technology Manager at PANDUIT says, “The PANVIEW iQ™ System revolutionises the way network management systems perform, resulting in better infrastructure visibility and reduced network operational costs.”
