Monitored PDU

The entry level intelligent PDU with network interface that enables an IT Manager to monitor total PDU load from a remote interface. A monitored PDU provides accurate real time current draw readings enabling users to determine exactly how much room is available before a PDU’s capacity is exceeded.

Switched PDU

A switched PDU with network interface gives IT administrators the ability to remotely turn on and off each individual power outlet on a PDU, empowering authorised users with the ability to remotely control the supply of power to their connected devices. Makes it possible for IT administrators to remotely power cycle servers, thus reducing downtime.

Supporting sequential outlet control permits equipment to be powered up/down correctly to ensure proper synchronisation of dependent services. Other uses include disabling unused outlets and restricting unauthorised use of power.

Advanced Elite Monitored PDU

The Advanced Elite Monitored PDU enables the user to monitor the total power usage of the PDU remotely via the internet and smart phone and track the power consumption of all the devices.
Overload event alerts can be set-up to notify managers via email and TRAP, enabling managers to respond quickly to prevent system failure and damage to equipment.

Advanced Elite Switched PDU

The Elite Switched PDU enables remote manual control of critical devices via internet and smart phone.
Problems can be prevented at a device by cutting the power to a specific outlet. By cutting the power and restarting the device remotely, time and money is saved, eliminating the need for technicians.
Managers can monitor the total power usage information of all PDUs remotely via the Internet to fully understand the power consumption of all the devices.
Overload event alerts can be set-up to notify managers via Email and TRAP, allowing managers to respond promptly to problems, preventing system failure and potential damage to equipment.
