Your cages already know who’s in them.
Now they can prove it.
Per-cage occupancy, intrusion detection and SOC 2 physical-access evidence — using RF sensing, not cameras. A $4 node per aisle reads the radio field, not images, so it deploys where cameras are banned and keeps reporting when the network is down.
Camera-free · Out-of-band via ESP-NOW + LoRa · SOC 2-ready evidence
Reuses the CameraPlus stack — same nodes, a data-center model flashed over the air
See it on a colo floor.
Open the live Reality Twin
Cameras can’t go where the evidence is needed.
Cameras don’t belong in cages
Tenants object to lenses pointed at their racks. So the one place you most need per-cage evidence is the one place a camera can’t go.
SOC 2 evidence is manual
“Who was in cage 14, and when?” is reconstructed from badge logs and guard rounds — not continuously proven, aisle by aisle.
New halls multiply the gap
Every aisle you bring online adds occupancy and intrusion blind spots that camera-first systems can’t economically cover.
RF first. Zero cameras. Independent of your network.
Physics, not images
$4 ESP32-S3 nodes read WiFi Channel State Information — 56 subcarriers compressed into 8 latent fields (presence, motion, occupancy, intrusion, anomaly…). Nothing identifiable is captured.
Out-of-band by design
Awareness travels over ESP-NOW + LoRa sub-GHz, off your production network. If the network is down, you still know what’s happening in the room. Under WiFi jamming, the sensing gets sharper.
Minutes per aisle
Drops onto new cage inventory during build-out — no rip-and-replace, no lenses, fully reversible. We OTA-flash the data-center model to the same nodes the rest of the stack uses.
Why a colo operator runs the math.
No stored video means a smaller attack surface, simpler retention, and nothing to breach.
You buy the evidence, not the hardware.
Run through MonitorPlus — we operate the nodes, the model and the reporting; you get the feed and the audit trail.
What lands in your dashboard
- Per-cage / per-aisle occupancy log — continuous, timestamped
- Intrusion & after-hours presence alerts on zones you define
- SOC 2-ready physical-access evidence trail, exportable for auditors
- Conversational query — “any presence in Hall 2 cages overnight?”
Why it fits a data center
- Works in cages and tenant zones where cameras are off-limits
- No video to store, encrypt, retain or breach
- Independent of the production network path
- Complements badge & perimeter CCTV — fills the in-row evidence gap
Prove it on one hall. Fixed fee. Metric named up front.
The offer
- Scope: one hall or up to 8 cages · 30 days
- Fee: $4,500 fixed — hardware, pre-configured kit, monitoring and reporting included
- You get: live per-cage occupancy + intrusion feed, after-hours presence alerts, and one SOC 2 CC6.4-ready physical-access evidence pack
- Install: your team racks the kit in an afternoon — and removes it in an afternoon if it isn’t earning its place
The success metric — agreed before we ship
- ≥95% of badge-verified cage entries captured as presence events
- <1 false alarm per cage per day — verified against your badge / perimeter-CCTV ground truth
- If we miss the metric, you don’t pay.
- Cage deployments run camera-free, always — no lens enters a tenant zone
The first three pilots run as design partnerships: founder pricing locked for 24 months, and direct input on the evidence-pack format your auditors actually want.
