CA 2183106
A method and system for monitoring equipment in a network environment are provided. Such equipment could be, but may not necessarily be, computers, printers, monitors, and other computer hardware. The system incorporates existing network cabling in the building which must contain a plurality of conductors, of which, at least two conductors must not be utilised by the existing network protocol. The system uses the two unused conductors to create a current loop which can be monitored from a central location. A specific resistance is fastened to the monitored equipment, and a voltage comparator at the central location activates an alarm if the resistance changes. The system is designed so that it can be installed onto existing network structures using common network patch cables, and without permanently defacing the monitored equipment.
