Intelligent Power Distribution Units
Remote Power Monitoring & Management Solutions
Intelligent PDUs and Intelligent Power Management play an important role within the Data Centre / Enterprise IT environments.
Discovering how much power IT equipment is consuming helps identify areas where energy savings can be made. Equipment that can be powered down or replaced with more energy efficient equipment. EDP Distribution offers many intelligent PDUs, or Power Distribution Units, that can be monitored or switched.
An intelligent PDU enables power monitoring that can be of the overall PDU or in some models down to the individual outlet. Whilst some also provide remote switching that allows power to be remotely cycled. Units are accessed via TCP/IP and provide power consumption data. This data can often be collected by a power management software package or imported into a DCIM application.
EDP’s iPower ACU units can be custom-built to the required configuration needed. Whilst, Dataprobe iBoot units provide a perfect solution to control single outlets for example, in kiosks.
For accurate power metering, where power is being charged to clients (e.g. Co-Location Data Centres) EDP offers MID approved power metering solutions.
