Abstract
A system is described for monitoring an environmental parameter in a closed server cabinet. The monitoring system includes a cabinet sensor probe (CSP) that includes a sensor assembly and a vertical linear actuator. The sensor assembly includes at least three environmental parameter sensors, wherein each one of the environmental parameter sensors is configured to at least render a signal representative of a sensed temperature. The sensor assembly also includes a sensor carriage configured to hold the at least three environmental parameter sensors at particular horizontally distinct positions such that each one of the at least three environmental parameter sensors occupies a position horizontally displaced from each of the other ones of the at least three environmental parameter sensors. The CSP further includes a vertical linear actuator that is configured to move the sensor assembly along a linear vertical path between a top and bottom of a door of the closed server cabinet.
