Server Room Temperature Monitor Kit with ESP32 + DHT22 v2
Build a Wireless Server Room Temperature Monitor with ESP32-C6 and DHT22
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Data centres and server rooms demand constant environmental monitoring, but wired sensors are messy and limit scalability. With this kit, you build a wireless temperature monitoring system where the ESP32-C6 functions as a Zigbee coordinator, collecting temperature and humidity readings from a DHT22 sensor node and publishing them over WiFi to any MQTT dashboard—perfect for a DIY data centre upgrade or a school IoT lab project.
What You'll Build
A fully functional wireless sensor network that monitors server room conditions. The ESP32-C6 becomes the brain, acting as a Zigbee hub to receive sensor data, displaying real-time temperature and humidity on the OLED, and bridging everything to MQTT. You'll be able to log data, trigger alerts, and even extend the system to cover multiple server racks later.
What You'll Learn
- Configure an ESP32-C6 as a Zigbee coordinator and network controller
- Interface a DHT22 sensor to capture precise temperature and humidity
- Bridge Zigbee sensor data to MQTT over Wi-Fi for remote monitoring
- Display live sensor values on a 0.96-inch OLED screen

Who This Kit Is For
CBSE Class 11–12 students exploring IoT in their curriculum projects will find real-world relevance. B.Tech ECE/EEE undergraduates can use it to demonstrate wireless sensor networking. ATL Tinkering Lab mentors looking for an advanced STEM kit that bridges Zigbee and cloud connectivity will appreciate the ready-made system. Even teams preparing for Smart India Hackathon challenges around data centre monitoring or industrial IoT will save weeks of part sourcing and debugging.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code inside the box to access the AI companion, which knows this exact project inside out. If you need human help, message us on WhatsApp — we respond within hours.
Can I add more temperature sensors later?
Absolutely. The ESP32-C6 can handle multiple Zigbee end devices. You can build additional DHT22 sensor nodes using the extra resistors and capacitors included, scaling your network to cover several server racks.
Do I need a separate Zigbee gateway or hub?
No. This kit is self-contained. The ESP32-C6 acts as both the Zigbee coordinator and the Wi-Fi to MQTT bridge, so no additional hardware is required to get data into your dashboard.
What MQTT broker can I use for testing?
You can use any standard MQTT broker—free cloud services like HiveMQ, a local Mosquitto installation on your laptop, or even a Raspberry Pi. The AI companion provides step-by-step configuration for the most common options.
Data Centre — ESP32-C6 Zigbee coordinator pairs with Zigbee sensor modules and bridges data to MQTT over WiFi.
