Thank you for your interest in NetZoom™ 9. This blog provides a basic overview of the features and equipment libraries that make it easy to create professional network, rack and data center designs and diagrams. 

NetZoom 9 with RackBuilder: Network, Rack and Data Center Design Simplified

NetZoom 9 is packed with all the essential tools you need to create sophisticated network documentation in popular applications like Microsoft Visio and AutoCAD: 

  • Equipment Shapes and Visio Stencils for Every Network 

Whether you need to design and diagram an IT or AV network, NetZoom has a library for you. Our complete library features over 80,000 equipment shapes from 3,000+ manufacturers of network hardware. It includes complete product lines from Cisco, Dell, APC, Chatsworth, Sun, IBM, Sony, Marantz, Escient and much more. In addition, we have a new library of shapes for creating logical network diagrams. And if you cannot find the shapes you need, we will make it for you – for FREE. 

  • Smart Equipment Shapes 

NetZoom’s scalable vector shapes not only look like their real-life counterparts, but they also come with connector-enabled data/power ports and equipment slots. This helps you diagram precise cabling between components and lets you configure chassis-based equipment with individual modules. 

  • Fast Search 

NetZoom features an intuitive search engine that helps you find the shapes you need in no time. You can search by keyword, manufacturer information or even convenient presets specific to a project, like building racks or creating data center floor layouts. You can even create favorite groups of shapes for even easier, personalized access.

  • RackBuilder for Visio™ 

If you need to design and diagram racks in Visio, NetZoom can build front and rear views simultaneously in real-time, eliminating the need to diagram each view manually. As you build each rack, NetZoom can also track cumulative changes in rack properties, like weight, energy and power properties. 

  • Data Center Wizard for Visio™ 

Design and diagram a data center floor of any size with NetZoom. Our shape library has top rack views, letting you build your data center from a bird’s eye view. Once your layout is created, you can drill down and build front and rear rack views simultaneously with RackBuilder.

  • Smart Update 

Download the latest equipment shapes from your preferred manufacturers. Select single manufacturers, individual product lines, or download your entire library in one shot. Within a few clicks, you will always have the shapes and stencils you need for your projects.

  • Configurator Pane 

Populate entire racks or configure chassis slots with compatible cards or modules before moving it into your host application to represent their real life counterparts. 

  • Watermarks: 

Visually label equipment shapes for quick identification or instructions on equipment status for planning purposes or tracking.

  • Custom Properties 

Easily add your own properties to the equipment shapes for the way you manage your data center infrastructure and assets.

  • Cross Referencing 

Compare network hardware from multiple manufacturers’ right inside NetZoom. By importing your own cross-reference data, you can easily view equipment alternatives within NetZoom in just a few clicks.
