MT20 Datasheet - Open/Close Detection
MT20 Sensors
Cloud-Managed Sensors that help you have complete visibility across your business environment.
Overview
Businesses need a complete view of data to make sound decisions. Businesses need to have visibility into their network availability metrics, capex & opex, and customer satisfaction levels to deliver on their mission. While businesses have a good grip on embracing and utilizing data in the business world, they are yet to fully visualize the physical world.
Current solutions are complicated to install, do not scale and are difficult to use. Hence businesses do not have a simple and reliable way to have visibility into their critical assets to maximize their network uptimes, reduce equipment failure, reduce unnecessary site visits, and deliver best-in-class customer service.
So, Meraki is introducing a range of sensors to prevent loss and increase operational efficiency with ease. Our sensors are simple, scalable and secure. Our sensors also connect to the dashboard using the MV/MR which removes the need for expensive gateways. Customers can now gain real-time visibility into their critical business environment form a single pane of glass.
CLOUD MANAGED SENSORS | INDUSTRY LEADING CLOUD MANAGEMENT |
The Cisco Meraki MT20 sensor provides the capability to detect if a door is open or closed for network closets across industries using BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) beacons on the MR and MV. The sensor uses a Hall Effect sensor to detect the magnetic field and determine if a Door is open or closed. Our sensors are built from the ground up to be easy to manage without compromising on power and flexibility All Meraki sensors are managed through an elegant, intuitive cloud-based interface Meraki’s centralized management gives administrators granular visibility into their network |
Cloud management has a number of benefits that make it easier to build networks large and small: Automatic alerts based on customizable thresholds through SMS, Email and Mobile push notifications Enterprise-grade security which the Cisco Trustworthy Systems seal of approval Role-based administration Firmware upgrades and enhancements from the Meraki cloud Zero-touch provisioning for rapid deployment across sites |
