Rack Mount, Pod, NetBotz, 150 Rack Sensor
The NetBotz 150 Rack Mount Sensor Pod is a compact, scalable solution designed to extend the reach of your NetBotz environment monitoring system. By adding up to six Universal Sensor channels, this pod lets you expand coverage across racks, rows, or data center environments without sacrificing space or simplicity. Built to integrate with select NetBotz appliances, the 150 Pod delivers reliable, centralized monitoring of critical conditions—temperature, humidity, water leaks, smoke, airflow, power anomalies, and other environmental factors—so you can detect issues early, reduce downtime, and protect assets. Whether you’re configuring a single rack or engineering a multi-rack security and monitoring strategy, the 150 Pod is a versatile, cost-efficient way to scale your NetBotz deployment while preserving an organized, professional rack layout.
- Six additional Universal Sensor ports: Expand your monitoring footprint with six flexible inputs that support a wide range of environmental and physical parameter sensors, enabling comprehensive coverage where you need it most.
- Seamless compatibility with NetBotz appliances: Designed to work with current generations of NetBotz appliances, including 250A, 750, and 755, as well as 455, 450, and 570 models, ensuring you can upgrade incrementally without replacing your existing infrastructure.
- Rack-mountable, space-efficient design: Engineered for standard 19-inch rack environments, the Pod integrates neatly into IT closets and data centers, minimizing cable clutter while maximizing monitoring potential across critical spaces.
- Scalable, modular monitoring: Connect multiple Pods to a single NetBotz appliance via the proprietary interconnect interface to grow your monitoring network as your data center expands or evolves.
- Centralized alerting and data collection: When paired with a NetBotz appliance, the Pod feeds real-time sensor data into the NetBotz management interface, enabling proactive alerts, historical reporting, and unified security and environmental governance.

How to install Rack Mount, Pod, NetBotz, 150 Rack Sensor
Installing the 150 Rack Sensor Pod is a straightforward process designed for IT professionals and facility teams who manage NetBotz deployments. Follow these general steps to add a Pod to your NetBotz environment and begin collecting expanded sensor data across your equipment racks.
- Power down or put the NetBotz appliance into a maintenance-friendly state if required by your site policies, then prepare the rack area where the Pod will be mounted.
- Mount the Pod into a standard 19-inch equipment rack using the manufacturer’s mounting hardware. Ensure the pod is securely fastened and has unobstructed airflow around it for accurate sensor readings.
- Connect the Pod to your NetBotz appliance using the proprietary interconnect interface. This linkage links the Pod’s six sensor channels to the NetBotz management console for centralized monitoring.
- Attach Universal Sensor modules to the Pod’s six ports. Configure each sensor type in the NetBotz interface according to the specific monitoring needs of each rack or zone.
- Power on the Pod (if required) and the NetBotz appliance, then access the NetBotz management dashboard. Validate sensor visibility, assign alert thresholds, and test alerting to ensure critical conditions generate timely notifications.
