JouleX Energy Manager (JEM) for Distributed Offices leverages a unique Agentless Discovery Method to automatically find all devices on the network and report and manage their energy usage. This product includes support for printers, copiers, distributed office servers, access points, network switches and VoIP phones. With JEM for Distributed Offices you can:
Monitor, Analyze, and Control Without Installing Software Agents on Each Device:
- Remote Management: Determine a baseline, monitor, analyze, and control energy usage of devices or systems throughout the distributed office without software agents, from a central location.
- Quick Time to Benefit: Installation and device auto-discovery in hours, not days or months.
- Simplified Maintenance: Reduce the complexity of traditional agent-based energy management solutions. No agents to install means no disruptive quality assurance (QA) cycles for patches or new operating system changes.
- Lowered Business Impact: The JEM agentless advantage means that you don’t lose productive time to installation and management of software agents on each device.
Power-Manage Distributed Office Equipment through Policy-Based Energy Optimization:
- Automate Policies to actively power down office equipment when it is idle or unproductive.
- Provide Opt-In/Opt-Out policies for end users.
- Use JouleX MobileTM to power on/off equipment using smart phones and mobile devices.
Support Sustainable Procurement™ practices:
- Determine Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): by utilizing actual power consumption, energy cost, and environmental impact.
- Comparative Analysis: Shows device-to-device and system-to-system comparisons of life cycle energy use and operating expenses for energy efficient IT infrastructure.
- Power Consumption Savings Potential: Identify savings potential based on actual energy demand, not overstated manufacturers’ faceplate.
Demonstrate Progress on Corporate Sustainability Initiatives:
- Reporting: Produce powerful, centralized enterprise sustainability reporting.
- Granular Breakdown: Understand energy consumption, utilization, costs, savings, and carbon emissions by device, location, cost center, division and by time of day.
- Support Regulatory Compliance with carbon accounting requirements and energy usage reporting.
