JouleX Drives Cisco Live with Five New Applications

ATLANTA, June 6, 2012  /PRNewswire/ -- JouleX, a leading innovator in enterprise energy management systems for data centers, distributed office environments, and facilities, today announced its schedule of planned activities for the company's participation at Cisco Live San Diego, June 10-14, 2012, at the San Diego Convention Center. The company will introduce new mobile device capabilities for Cisco EnergyWise-enabled LED light fixtures, and its JouleX Energy Manager (JEM) solution will also be featured during scheduled training sessions and presentations throughout the show. Specifically, JEM will be used to monitor the energy consumption of the entire Cisco Live "World of Solutions" network along with devices in the Cisco EnergyWise and Universal-Power-Over-Ethernet (UPoE) Partner Pavilion.

"JouleX continues to look for ways to bring EnergyWise-based innovation to the market," said Tom Noonan, president and CEO at JouleX. "We look forward to being part of the Cisco Live events. They give us the perfect platform to debut advancements in the JouleX Energy Manager solution, for example the new mobile app for the lighting market. Cisco Live also provides an ideal setting to demonstrate exactly how we help organizations optimize and reduce energy consumption across the enterprise. The IT-connected world is like billions of leaky buckets, wasting energy day and night. When you extract that waste, the cost-savings and environmental impact is enormous."

Cisco EnergyWise extends energy monitoring and management from the network core to the edge. JEM helps visualize this solution across every device connected to the network—taking energy management beyond the switch ports and traditional PCs, to the entire IT infrastructure and data centers. JouleX provides the monitoring, analysis and control for Cisco EnergyWise-enabled devices and systems—with no client-side agents or hardware meters required. Additionally, JEM supports Cisco advanced features such as a deep-sleep Voice Over IP (VoIP) function, power capping for the Unified Computing System (UCS), and support for Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) Plus and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)―all of which will be showcased during the event.

At Booth 1746, JouleX will demonstrate the benefits of its award-winning JouleX Energy Manager technology in a real-world setting as it monitors the energy consumption and utilization of the Cisco Live World of Solutions network infrastructure, including network switches, wireless access points, and unified IP telephones, and other EnergyWise and UPoE devices in the Pavilion.

Other notable JouleX activities during Cisco Live San Diego include:

• JEM will be shown in the EnergyWise and UPoE Pavilion (Booth 2776), managing EnergyWise-enabled devices. Additionally, David Prantl of JouleX will demonstrate the new JEM mobile device capabilities using EnergyWise-enabled LED light fixtures built by NuLEDs. Designed to help extend energy management to lighting systems, the new mobile app can be used with iPads, smartphones and the new Cisco Cius tablet.
