Detailed Product Breakdown

1. Superior Power Distribution & Performance

• High-Density Outlet Options: Available with a wide array of IEC (C13, C19), NEMA, or country-specific outlets to accommodate diverse equipment needs.
• Robust Input Capabilities: Supports single-phase (120V, 208V, 230V) and three-phase (208V, 400V) configurations, with current ratings from 16A to 60A.
• Phase Balancing (for 3-Phase Models): Intelligently distributes loads across phases to prevent overloads and optimize power utilization.
• High-Grade Components: Engineered with durable materials and high-quality circuit breakers for long-term reliability and safety.

2. Intelligent Monitoring & Management

• Comprehensive Metering:
  • Current (Amps): Monitor real-time current draw to prevent overloads and optimize load balancing.
  • Voltage (Volts): Ensure stable power delivery and detect voltage fluctuations.
  • Active Power (kW): Track instantaneous power consumption.
  • Energy (kWh): Measure cumulative energy usage for accurate billing, efficiency analysis, and PUE calculations.
  • Power Factor: Understand power quality and identify potential inefficiencies.
  • Optional Outlet-Level Metering: Gain granular insights into individual device power consumption.
• Network Connectivity: Features an integrated Ethernet port for network access, supporting TCP/IP, HTTP/HTTPS, SNMP (v1/v2c/v3), SMTP, NTP, Syslog, and Telnet/SSH.
• User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive web-based GUI provides easy access to real-time data, configuration settings, and event logs.
• Threshold Alarms: Set custom thresholds for current, voltage, temperature, and humidity. Receive instant notifications via email, SNMP traps, or syslog when thresholds are exceeded or critical events occur.
• Data Logging & Reporting: Store historical power data for trend analysis, capacity planning, and auditing purposes.

3. Enhanced Safety & Protection

• Integrated Overload Protection: Resettable hydraulic-magnetic circuit breakers safeguard against overcurrent conditions, preventing damage to connected equipment and the PDU itself.
• Surge Suppression (Optional/Select Models): Protects sensitive electronics from power spikes and transient voltages.
• Secure Access: Multi-level user authentication, IP access control, and SSL encryption ensure secure remote management.
• Environmental Resilience: Designed to operate reliably within a wide range of data center temperatures and humidity levels.
• Robust Grounding: Provides essential safety grounding for all connected devices.

4. Flexible Design & Easy Deployment

• Versatile Form Factors:
  • 0U Vertical (Rack Mount): Mounts vertically in the rear or side of a rack, saving valuable rack space for IT equipment.
  • 1U/2U Horizontal (Rack Mount): Fits standard 19-inch racks, ideal for distributing power across a single rack unit.
• Toolless Mounting Options: Many models support quick and easy toolless installation, reducing deployment time.
• Local Display: Clear LCD or LED display provides instant access to PDU status, metering data, and network information at the rack.
• Input Plug Options: Available with various input plug types (e.g., L6-30P, L21-30P, 3-Phase NEMA, IEC 60309) to match your facility's power infrastructure.

5. Scalability & Integration

• Daisy Chaining (Select Models): Reduce network port usage by connecting multiple PDUs via a single IP address.
• DCIM Software Integration: Seamlessly integrates with leading Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) platforms for centralized power monitoring, asset management, and capacity planning.
