Our solution focuses on perfecting the industrial connectivity layer that powers EPMS—ensuring accurate, timely, and secure data. Unlike full-suite providers, our products specialize in resilient data acquisition and networking, proven through real-world success in AC power, switchgear, and PDU monitoring. The result: a scalable, secure foundation for EPMS performance.
Proactively identify and resolve issues before they cause unplanned downtime.
Gain insights into energy use to reduce waste and avoid peak demand penalties.
Quickly diagnose power anomalies to prevent recurrence and mitigate risks.
Accurate EPMS data is key to energy optimization. Our products ensure reliable, real-time connectivity so DCIM and EMS platforms can track usage, spot inefficiencies, and optimize power distribution to lower PUE.
Our product such as Moxa MGate protocol gateways convert Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP/IP, streamlining EPMS data integration. High port density and Ethernet cascading simplify deployment and wiring for large-scale EMS, SCADA, and DCIM systems.
Our DCI products feature IEC 62443-compliant security, strong encryption, and secure protocols to protect data and devices. Built-in tools simplify updates and reduce malware risk, while advanced functions help prevent service disruptions.
We offer a wide portfolio of products and features like Ethernet cascading and modular design (for switches and I/Os) that provide flexibility and scalability for DCI expansion. This supports the need to add equipment as demand grows without disrupting operations
Ensuring uninterrupted service and optimizing power usage in data centers relies heavily on robust power management and environmental monitoring systems. This involves monitoring critical power devices like automatic transfer switches (ATSs), power meters, circuit breakers, and UPS controllers for Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) monitoring and enhancement. Environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and airflow are also continuously monitored and controlled to avoid impacting operations. Industrial-grade network devices are essential, designed to withstand electrical interference and ensure the network remains online. Redundancy solutions like Turbo Ring, Turbo Chain, PRP/HSR are implemented to guarantee network recovery in milliseconds and prevent data packet loss.
An EPMS is a system focused on monitoring and managing the electrical power distribution and consumption within a data center. It includes devices like switchgear, UPS, PDUs, meters, and ATSs. Ensuring efficient and uninterrupted power supply is fundamental to data center operations and energy efficiency. Improving power system efficiency is critical for power equipment operating optimally.
Data centers contain numerous pieces of electrical equipment and hundreds of monitoring nodes. A significant challenge is that most DCI equipment is serial-based, often using protocols like Modbus RTU. This creates a need to efficiently acquire data from a substantial amount of diverse equipment
Moxa provides solutions for seamless data collection from diverse OT equipment. Their products support protocol conversion, such as Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP, and serial-to-Ethernet. Protocol gateways like the MGate MB3000 series (including MB3170, MB3660, 5118, 5217I) are essential "translators" for integrating serial Modbus RTU devices with Ethernet-based EPMS or DCIM systems. Serial device servers (NPort series) also connect serial devices to Ethernet. High-port density gateways help manage data from numerous field devices. Devices like the MGate MB3660 feature an active polling mechanism to speed up data acquisition in large-scale applications
Modbus gateways are crucial in data center communication systems, acting as translators between different protocols. Many OT devices in data centers utilize serial Modbus RTU, while IT and control systems often operate on Ethernet-based protocols like Modbus TCP/IP or BACnet/IP. Modbus gateways, such as the MGate MB3000 and MB3660 series, bridge this gap by converting serial data to Ethernet, allowing power meters, PDUs, ATS, and other equipment to be integrated into Electrical Power Management Systems (EPMS) and Building Management Systems (BMS). High-port density gateways support data transmission from numerous field devices, simplifying data acquisition.
