Introducing PanView iQ ™

PANVIEW iQ™ (PViQ™) is an exciting new next-generation

Physical Infrastructure Intelligence solution that has been

developed from the ground up by PANDUIT.

Physical Infrastructure Manager (PIM) software provides

the management interface to PViQ™ . PIM will be available

on 3/20; global availability is scheduled for 4/4

Our existing PANVIEW™ system will continue to be offered

through 2008 (longer if justified by open quotes, bids, etc).

PANDUIT will support PanView through 2012.

PanView and PViQ™ are not interchangeable. There are no

means to convert PanView systems to PViQ™.


PViQ™ and PIM Value

Increases the speed and accuracy of documentation and manual patch field change management via automation.

Provides greater visibility into the physical layer for device and port location ID and facilitating asset tracking.

Integrates with best-in-class management tools to increase the velocity and performance of your business processes.

Reduces network operating costs through guided end-to-end MACs, ensuring the physical integrity of the data center and enterprise connectivity.


Trends in IT Management


IT departments are being challenged to measure their contributions and become better managed (fiscally) to meet business objectives.

Physical Infrastructure Management is a means to help IT managers meet their business goals and focus on areas of pain within their organization.

Operational Continuity

PIM integrates with IT metrics to increase system reliability by:

Reducing Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) via physical layer diagnostics

Improving uptime metrics-- Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF)

PViQ™ Client / Server Environment

The PViQ™ Server runs JBoss Application Server

The #1 most widely used Java application server on the market. Interoperable with most OS capable of running a Java Virtual Machine (JVM). JBoss is included in the PViQ™ Installation Disk.

The PViQ™ Database runs MySQL®

World's most popular open source database because of its consistent fast performance, high reliability and ease of use. MySQL runs on more than 20 platforms including Linux, Windows, OS/X, HP-UX, AIX, and Netware.PViQ™ will initially support the Windows Operating System.

The PViQ™ Client utilizes Java Runtime Environment (JRE)

Consists of the Java Virtual Machine, the Java libraries, and all other components necessary to run Java applications and applets.JRE is loaded on-demand (if not already present) when the client invokes PViQ™ for the first time.JRE is supported on Windows Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera, etc.
