AKCP – The innovation leader in SNMP-based monitoring and partner of the Didactum Group
The internationally recognized manufacturer AKCP is one of the pioneers in the field of modern SNMP monitoring systems. The company specializes in developing highly reliable solutions for environmental monitoring, security surveillance, and the preventive control of critical IT and infrastructure environments. As an official partner of Didactum, AKCP has been delivering proven technology for decades, used in data centers, server rooms, telecommunications applications, and industrial facilities around the world. Together with Didactum Ltd. Germany, AKCP offers a comprehensive range of products and services that ensure the protection of sensitive environments at the highest level.
For more than 30 years, AKCP – originally known as AKCess Pro – has been a reliable partner for remote monitoring of environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, power, water leakage, or motion. The company was founded in 1981 by Brad Klein in the United States. What began as a consulting firm in the IT sector developed over the years into a multinational manufacturer and world-leading developer of SNMP-based monitoring solutions.
Today, the AKCP SensorProbe and SecurityProbe systems are considered the industry standard for preventive and automated monitoring of business-critical infrastructures. Numerous companies rely daily on the stability and reliability of these systems. Every AKCP development process follows strict quality assurance to ensure maximum system availability. The MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) of the AKCP sensorProbe2 system is an impressive 1,400,000 hours – a measure of the outstanding reliability and longevity of the hardware.
“Innovation is our greatest passion,” says founder Brad Klein. His philosophy continues to shape the company today: a product should bring joy – not only through commercial success but also through the pursuit of technical perfection. Therefore, each AKCP product is the result of intensive development work focused on precision, quality, and customer satisfaction. This philosophy explains why AKCP monitoring solutions are regarded worldwide as particularly reliable.
Global presence and technological expertise
AKCP is a globally operating company. In addition to its headquarters, the company has branches in Hong Kong, India, and the Philippines. The research and development center in Bangkok (Thailand) forms the core of technological innovation. Here, new concepts for advanced environmental monitoring systems are continuously developed to meet the growing requirements of modern enterprises. The motto “Driven by innovation” is more than just a slogan – it defines the DNA of AKCess Pro. The company continuously invests in research and development to bring products to market that impress both technically and functionally.
From the first sensorProbe generation to the latest models, AKCP offers an exceptionally wide product range. Whether for small IT cabinet solutions or large-scale data centers – AKCP provides solutions that can be flexibly adapted to any environment. In combination with the AKCess Pro Server software, a central monitoring system is created through which all sensors, devices, and alarms can be managed in real time.
Partnership between AKCP and Didactum
The Didactum Group Germany is an important strategic partner of AKCP. As an official distributor, Didactum offers the complete portfolio of the manufacturer – from sensorProbe2 and sensorProbe4 to sensorProbe8 and the powerful securityProbe monitoring solutions. The partnership is based on a clear goal: to provide customers in Europe with a reliable, ready-to-use, and individually adaptable platform for server room monitoring and infrastructure management.
Didactum not only supplies the products but also supports customers with project planning, installation, and system integration. This partnership between AKCP and Didactum forms a powerful alliance that protects data centers, telecommunications facilities, research laboratories, and industrial plants alike. The combination of hardware, software, and service results in a complete solution – from precise measurement to detailed alarm management – including communication via email, SMS, and SNMP traps.
SNMP-based monitoring solutions from AKCP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) forms the technological foundation of all AKCP monitoring systems. This protocol structure enables direct communication between sensors, monitoring devices, and network management systems. AKCP SNMP monitoring allows seamless integration into existing IT management solutions such as Nagios, PRTG, or HP OpenView. Administrators can centrally access all environmental data and automatically react as soon as critical thresholds are exceeded.
AKCP’s product portfolio includes a wide range of sensors and accessories. These include temperature, humidity, smoke, motion, water, and voltage sensors, as well as sensors for airflow and door monitoring. These components can be connected to various sensorProbe or securityProbe units. Through an intuitive web interface, parameters such as thresholds, log files, and alarms can be easily configured. All devices are ready to use (“Plug & Play”) and require no complex software installation.
Innovation and quality – made by AKCP
The reliability of AKCP products is the result of strict quality control and extensive testing procedures. Each system is individually tested before leaving the factory. Particularly noteworthy is the exceptionally high MTBF rate, which is far above the industry average. For the user, this means longer lifespan, less maintenance, and continuous operational safety. Customers also appreciate the scalability of the systems: from small server rooms to large industrial buildings with hundreds of active sensors.
AKCP’s hardware and software are designed to integrate seamlessly into existing IT infrastructures. Through standardized interfaces and protocols, data is transmitted efficiently and visualized in real time. Especially in the field of environmental monitoring, AKCP impresses with precise sensor technology and intuitive system control, which significantly enhances security in sensitive environments.
