Our PatchAssist agent is a platform-independent server application. It has been designed to monitor the connections to the analyzers in the individual racks, to evaluate all status information gathered on the passive network and to save them in a central databank. 

Our PatchAssist agent also provides an HTTP/REST interface which enables data exchange with foreign systems, such as separate cable management systems or DCIM applications.

Additionally, it contains a browser-based user interface (UI) with intelligent user control options. Authorized users can manage the hardware subsystem via the user interface. For example, they can register new analyzers to the system or evaluate existing analyzers. Each analyzer, each sub rack, each cassette down to each individual port can be addressed and its status be evaluated. Additionally, system and alarm events are visualized via the user interface if a fault or failure occurs. The setup of the interface complies with ISO/IEC 18598 as well as with DIN EN50667
