Asset Sensors and Tags
Asset management tags (AMTs) are electronic IDs that are adhered to
data center items such as servers and then plugged in to asset
management sensors (AMS) mounted on the rack. Once the asset tags
are adhered to items, plugged in to asset management sensors, and the
asset management sensors are configured in EMX, you can remotely
track the item's location.

track the item's location.
In EMX, a Feature port is identified with a combination of the name
"Asset Strip" and the port number.
"Asset Strip" and the port number.
After connecting an asset sensor, you must provide the total number of
rack units (tag ports) the connected asset sensor has to the EMX device.

If necessary, you can also manually change the LED color settings for a
specific rack unit on the asset sensor to make that LED behave
differently from other LEDs.

A daisy chain AMS-M2-Z asset sensors is supported by the EMX. See
AMS-M2-Z Daisy-Chain Limitations
(on page 334) for information on
AMS-M2-Z daisy chain limitations. Once connected, EMX recognizes
each AMS-M2-Z asset sensor that is part of the chain. Blade extensions
can be connected to each AMS-M2-Z asset sensor in the chains, as
needed. As AMS-M2-Z asset sensors are added or removed from the
chain, events are generated in EMX.
