Our MIS folks have used this device called "Netbotz" for a couple of =
years now. I have to say, especially in the later versions, that I am =
quite impressed by their capabilities including motion-detection =
cameras, alerting, and all the environmental probes you mentioned. =
Those little things have saved our necks quite a few times. The PoE =
thing may not be there yet, but I really don't know, best to contact =
Netbotz to inquire about this type of power requirement. =

Subject: My yearly post about environmental monitoring devices
I'm sure if you peruse the archives, you'll see that I post about this=20
about every year. The answer to your question is 'No, I haven't found =
what=20
I am looking for yet.'
However, the quest I am on is slightly different.
I am looking for a device that meets the following criteria.
a) Reasonably small. This probably wouldn't be rack mounted; it'd be =
wall=20
mounted, desk mounted, celing mounted, etc.
b) Powered by PoE.
c) Is SNMPable over Ethernet. NOT RS232 or serial, or anything archaic=20
like that. Not MODBUS. It's 2004, people.
d) Provides Temperature and Humidity.
e) Has 4 or so input contact sensors (connections to AC units, etc.)
f) Has 4 or so output contact sensors.
Help.
