Play Video Play Video FRIDAY15 Digital Electricity with Voltserver Class 4 Power. Fault Managed Power Systems. You may have heard of these new terms, but do you understand how it is THE sensible way to push power and data to your extended campus applications? Hear it from Rodger Hyle of VoltServer, the pioneers of #DigitalElectricity. Play Video Play Video What is Digital Electricity? Jeff Corbett, DES technical account manager, explains this innovative power transmission. Power Reimagined A Fault Managed Power System is the sensible way to push power over distance. Safe to handle, efficient to manage, and only requiring a single pathway for your power and data applications. FMPS can carry loads of up to 2,000W for a distance of over a mile. It is safe to handle and poses minimal fire hazard. This unique blend of power and safety is the result of an electrical transmission system that packetizes the power alongside a steady stream of safety data. SEE HOW IT WORKS The industry's leading FMPS platform: Digital Electricity™ The VoltServer™ Digital Electricity™ platform converts energy into packetized units that combine both power and safety data. The result is a steady data stream, of hundreds of packets per second, that is continuously monitoring for faults such as improper wiring, a short circuit, or an obstruction. The transmitter recognizes the condition in a fraction of a second and halts the transmission of packets. The platform supports both AC and DC loads, first levelling the power to a DC stream during the packetized transmission, and then at the receiving end, transforming the energy to the requirements of the output destination. FAULT MANAGED POWER FACT SHEET Use Cases for Fault Managed Power The best use cases for FMPS are expansive facilities with many power and data needs. Think hospitals, stadiums, manufacturing plants with far-flung IOT devices, or real estate with a multitide of power-over-ethernet applications (POE lighting, IP cameras and phones). Another popular use case are venues, such as stadiums, seeking robust cellular coverage. FMPS pushes power to areas of wireless densification without the need of building multiple UPS rooms. What Plugs into FMPS Circuits? AC-Powered Devices Networking Gear USB Power Blocks IP Public Safety Cameras & Access Control Emergency Call Boxes DC-Powered Devices Routers & Switches Access Points IP Devices Phones & intercoms Digital Signage & Clocks POE Applications POE Switches POE Lighting Network Densification Antennas DAS Gear Visibility and Alerting on a Cloud Dashboard Get notified of outages in real time.

  • Connectivity | Dagostino Electronic Services

    Redundency and diversity are critical for continuous connectivity. Our competitive partner network ensures a failproof network. In today’s work environment, productivity is entirely dependent on secure and consistent connectivity. If your access goes down, so does your revenue. We navigate our extensive partner network to give you optimal connectivity for the best value. Connectivity Services TAKE THE QUIZ! SCHEDULE A DISCOVERY SESSION Performance, Cost & Resilience Get the Right Connectivity Not all connectivity is created equal. From traditional approaches like MPLS, to more modern options like SD-WAN and beyond, there are multiple options to fit every use case. The question with connectivity isn’t whether you need it, but which option best meets your needs for performance, cost, and resilience. Broadband DIA (Dedicated Internet Access) MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) VPLS (Virtual Private LAN Service) SD-WAN (Software Defined - Wide Area Network) National & Regional Partnerships DES is partnered with dozens of national and regional carriers, including Verizon, Comcast, Crown Castle, DQE Communications and others, to give you highly competitive rates for failproof connectivity. Redundancy And Diversity Relying on a single carrier for your connectivity puts your business at risk of grinding to a halt if that carrier experiences an outage. Redundancy gives you a back-up connection. If your primary line experiences an outage, your secondary line can ensure business continuity. Diversity ensures the back-up connection uses a different carrier—and ideally a different route to your building—providing a further safeguard to secure critical business continuity.

  • Identity and Access

    Protect your network from unauthorized access - easily. Identity & Access Management SCHEDULE A DEMO Protect your network from unauthorized access - easily. Contextual Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Create contextual access policies that assess risk factors, such as device, network, location, travel, IP, and other contexts, at each step of the authentication process. Even integrate external risk signals to provide additional context. Then pair risk levels with appropriate access decisions, like allowing or denying access, prompting for MFA, or using passwordless authentication for a low-risk request. Seamless Single Sign-On (SSO) Increase productivity while keeping data secure. With single sign-on users only have to enter one set of credentials to access their web apps in the cloud and behind the firewall - via desktops, smartphones and tablets. This foundational identity and access management (IAM) measure is a first step in building trusted experiences for your workforce, customers, and partners. Meet your Compliance Requirements Many industries require multi-factor authentication for different user groups across employees and consumers. And some regulations even require specific authenticator assurance levels. Meet these regulations with ease by choosing from a range of assurance factors - including knowledge factors, possession factors, inherence factors, and time-based factors - that comply with your industry requirements.

In Short: You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time. If you are a resident in the European Economic Area and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection supervisory authority. You can find their contact details here: http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/bodies/authorities/index_en.htm .

CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice. 10. COOKIE NOTICE Where permitted by law, non-personally identifiable information and data may be automatically collected through the standard operation of our internet service or through the use of “cookies” or “internet tags” or other similar techniques. We use technologies such as local storage and cookies to store an access token on your browser which enables us to recognize you and your preferences. We do this specifically to (i) ensure the website functions properly; (ii) track you within the website; (iii) enhance user experience; (iv) conduct analytics to improve the website; (v) prevent fraudulent use of the website; and (iv) diagnose and repair technical errors within the website and, in case of abuse, track and mitigate the abuse.

Analytics cookies show us which of the website pages are most frequently viewed and help us record any difficulties you have with the website. We use Google Analytics, also known as G4, with restricted data processing enabled, to collect information on your use of the Website to improve our website. Because we have enabled restricted data processing for Google Analytics, the use of this information for analytics is not considered a sale under any applicable state privacy act. Google Analytics may also receive information about you from applications you have downloaded that partner with Google. We do not combine the information collected through Google Analytics with any personally identifiable information that you may provide to us. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to our website or to another application that partners with Google is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Service, “How Google Use Your Information from Sites” and Google Privacy Policy.

Alternatively, you may wish to visit www.aboutcookies.org , which contains comprehensive information on how to do this on a wide variety of desktop browsers.
