Some of the metered PDUs, smart and intelligent PDUs we supply can be installed with additional plug-in sensors for temperature and humidity. The PDUs are connected to the local IP network and can report monitoring readings taken by the sensors.
Switched PDUs
These PDUs have switched outlet sockets to allow remote load shedding or reboot of the connected servers and IT devices. Some of the power distribution units also include a smart interface with metering at the PDU and individual outlet socket level.

Switched Power Distribution Unit Installations
Switched power distribution units (PDUs) have network management cards (NMC) to allow them to integrate into a local IP network for remote monitoring and control. The local NMC card will typically provide information via a built-in display (LCD or LED).
The use of switched PDUs is important in larger server rooms and datacentres due to the metering information provided for capacity planning and the ability to monitor and control loads in real time. The switched PDU provides individual outlet socket as well as complete PDU switching capabilities.
Using a switched PDU allows network and datacentre managers to remotely control servers and IT accessories powered from a PDU over a very wide area network of installations. Remote switching can also be safer than entering a rack cabinet in order to manually disconnected a power cord.
The PDU will be designed for either horizontal installation or vertical installation and will have corresponding form factor. Please see the individual product specifications.
