Test & Lab Environment FAQs How does the Universal Connectivity System™ 2900 help with all the moves, adds, and changes we make each day?
Making constant data center configuration changes to support business objectives requires a lot of time, management and personnel-especially in a test lab or DR environment that experience heavy moves, adds, and changes. The UCS™ 2900 performs network changes faster, reduces the resources required, and improves the quality of the reconfigurations. Why wait for a technician to go onto the data center floor, physically move cables-and hope that no errors are made- when the needed configuration changes can be made instantly and securely right from the desktop, wherever the location. Ultimately, the UCS 2900 saves considerable time and allows valuable resources to be spent time on more strategic initiatives.
I have many people working in my lab and they don't all need access to every piece of equipment, how can I segregate available equipment?
The Universal Connectivity System 2900's management system provides the ability to segregate ports through robust, role-based access controls, ensuring proper management authorization regardless of the users location (local, national or global).
