Graphical Networks new netTerrain visualization engine offers a complete picture of your infrastructure environment, from the data center to cabling to outside plant.  Our real-time visualization engine provides an accurate representation of your office space, data center, and outside the data center. Hierarchy

With the ability to drill down from floor plans, front and back views of cabinets, with greater details at the rack and equipment level, the ability to traverse from physical and logical views, organizations can build a true representation of their infrastructure.

Some of the advanced visualization features include:

Top Data Center Views:  Visualize color-coded floor plans that summarize the utilizations of key data center attributes such as rack space, power usage, heat dissipation, and weight of equipment and display all equipment embedded data.

Floor and Room Diagrams: Drill down into your Floor and Room Diagrams.  These views consist of building out the Nodes that represent Cabinets, Non rack-mounted Assets (PDU's, Breakers, Wall mounted equipment, etc) as well as power and data connections between nodes.

Rack and Equipment Elevation Diagrams: From the floor and room diagrams, drill down to the rack elevation views which displays both front and back Cabinet/Rack views, with its vendor specific icons. 

The rack mounted equipment will be placed automatically and all equipment will display its subcomponents (ports/slots) automatically.

Building and Manhole Diagrams: In addition to visualizing office space and inside the data center(s), visualize equipment and cabling outside the Data Center.  View towers, antennas, manholes, splices, as well as fiber, power and data connections between devices.

Network Views:  Build network diagrams that displays the Network equipment, servers, and computers mapped to the network (such as a SONET Ring and all their associated devices), and their connections (OSI layer 1 to OSI layer 7) and drill down from the network depiction of a device into the backplane or rack elevation view.

Application Diagrams: These diagrams shows the dependencies between Applications, Network equipment, servers and computers mapped to a specific application and their connections (physical or logical).

Circuit Layout Record (CLR) Diagrams: On-demand creation of circuit layout records to create End to End Circuit Layout Records depicting all devices and subcomponents along a specified user-defined path.

Impact Analysis Diagrams: Dynamically create Impact Analysis diagrams, such as "what devices are connected to PDU XXX" or "What is the impact of Server YYY going down".
