Upstream and downstream power decisions made easy with EkkoSoft 3D One-Line Visualizations

Power is clearly business-critical for data centers, and it has never been more important for operations teams to have full visibility over their M&E power chain and capacity planning choices. 


EkkoSoft Critical’s powerful 3D visualization and analytics capabilities provide you with a great way to see how you use your power throughout the data center – giving you enterprise-wide access to your critical data center power management in an instant. 
 
Now, with the need to support a new generation of high-density racks and liquid cooling capabilities, there’s an even greater requirement for in-depth power insights – from enterprise/estate levels right through to individual rack power consumption usage details. 
 
That’s where our 3D Mechanical and Electrical One-Line visualizations can really make a difference, giving you the insight you need to make more informed upstream and downstream power distribution decisions – as well as full support for ESG Reporting and M&E Capacity Planning. 
 
And it really couldn’t be any easier to use – here’s a short 45-second video introducing you to the 3D Mechanical and Electrical One-Line feature within our EkkoSoft Critical software, and showing you how it works: 
 

  • First select the SITE option from the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen 
  • Immediately view the full 3D data center electrical one-Line Diagram to visualize the complete M&E Chain 
  • Select any object – such as a PDU or a UPS – to view its trace and data 
  • View that object’s data on the right-hand side of the screen 
  • Select any data point to run an interactive chart 
  • Quickly visualize and view trends for any monitored data point
