Unified Data Center Management, Automation and Critical Infrastructure Solutions
Modern data centers are among the most complex and mission-critical facilities in the world. Maintaining maximum availability requires complete visibility across electrical infrastructure, cooling systems, power distribution, energy management, building systems and IT operations.
At Contel, we help data center owners, operators and engineering companies design, build, integrate and manage these critical environments through a single, unified technology platform.
With more than 60 years of engineering experience in industrial automation, electrical engineering and mission-critical control systems, Contel delivers end-to-end solutions for enterprise data centers, hyperscale facilities, colocation providers, edge data centers and AI data centers.
Our solutions are built around the Ignition platform by Inductive Automation, providing a modern, scalable and vendor-independent foundation for Data Center Management, SCADA, EPMS, BMS and Operational Intelligence.
One Platform for the Entire Data Center
Most data centers operate multiple independent systems.
Electrical Monitoring
Building Management Systems
Energy Management Systems
Cooling Control
Power Monitoring
Generator Monitoring
UPS Monitoring
Battery Monitoring
Environmental Monitoring
DCIM
IT Monitoring
Managing these systems independently creates operational silos, inconsistent reporting and limited visibility.
Contel integrates all operational technologies into a single platform, providing one version of the truth for operators, facility managers and executive management.
The result is improved operational efficiency, faster incident response, better energy management and smarter business decisions.
