Openviro Axe PoE is an RP2040-based environmental sensor for server rooms and cabinets (Crowdfunding)

OPENVIRO Axe PoE

Openviro Axe PoE is a rack-mountable, open-source environmental sensor designed to measure the temperature and humidity (and air pressure) in server rooms or cabinets with electrical equipment. The device is based on a Raspberry Pi RP2040 board with Ethernet connectivity housed in an aluminum enclosure and equipped with two RJ12 connectors for Bosch BME280 sensors with an accuracy of +/- 0.5°C. It provides better results than sensors placed in a machine that may be impacted by the internal components’ heat dissipation. For instance, the two sensor inputs can be used to measure the temperature and humidity of the intake and exhaust in a server rack. Openviro Axe PoE specifications: Microcontroller – Raspberry Pi RP2040 dual Arm Cortex-M0+ @133 MHz with 264 KB SRAM Storage – 16 MB flash memory Network – 10/100Mbps Ethernet RJ45 port via LAN8710Ai Expansion – 2x RJ12 connector for THP Probes Misc – 3x Buttons Power […]
