Abstract
An equipment housing is provided upon which heavy computing equipment, such as servers, routers, switches, and others may be mounted. A computing device is attached to the housing. The computing device is interfaced with the equipment on the housing, and also with a system that is external thereto. The disclosed housing, and others like it, may be used by an organization along with a centralized computing system such that that organization will know the exact location and status of all of its equipment at the same time and may accurately and readily monitor all of its equipment-related-assets at any given time.
