    摘要: The disclosed systems and methods are directed to providing the mobile robot-assisted thermal monitoring of server racks in a datacenter. The thermal monitoring comprises a plurality of thermal sensors to detect temperature data of each of the server racks, a plurality of power distribution units (PDUs) to detect electrical power consumption of each of the servers, a datacenter operations controller configured to generate a temperature gradient profile over time for each of the server racks, determine a potential anomalous thermal condition of a server rack, and identify the server rack as a point-of-interest (POI). The thermal monitoring further comprises a mobile robot configured to travel to and capture the surface temperature image data of the identified POI server rack based on a provided navigation transit route and the datacenter operations controller updating the temperature gradient profile based on the capture the surface temperature image data.

    摘要: A system provides a network interface to electronic components. The system comprises a rack, having a plurality of rack stages, each of which is configured to receive a corresponding electronic component. One peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) connector corresponds to each rack stage and is connectable to the corresponding electronic component when received in the rack stage. The PCIe connectors are assembled in a PCIe connector group. Each PCIe connector of the PCIe connector group has a same number of active serial links. The system also comprises a network adaptor that provides a serial link termination for each active serial link of the PCIe connector group. The network adaptor comprises a communication interface for communicating with a network. The network adaptor is configured to multiplex signals exchanged between the network and the PCIe connectors of the PCIe connector group.

    摘要: A circuit comprises an output connector connectable to a load. A relay selectively connects the output connector to an AC power source. The relay is responsive to a disabling signal to disconnect the output connector from the AC power source. A latch maintains a fault signal until it receives a rearm signal. A logic combiner generates the disabling signal when it receives the fault signal. A sensor senses a difference between a current being delivered to the load and a current returning from the load. A detector emits the fault signal when when the difference between the current being delivered to the load and the current returning from the load exceeds a maximum differential current set-point. A controller receives a user command to rearm the circuit, and in response to receiving the user command, emits the rearm signal and ceases the emission of the fault signal.
