Easy-to-read LEDs display current per phase to help prevent overloads and simplify three-phase load balancing in high-density cabinets.
Per- Inlet Power Sensing (PIPS®):
Monitors Current Load (A), Voltage (V), Power (W), Apparent Power (VA), Crest Factor, Power Factor, & Energy per inlet.
Per-Outlet Power Sensing (POPS®):
Monitors Current Load (A), Voltage (V), Power (W), Apparent Power (VA), Crest Factor, Power Factor, and Energy per outlet.
Branch Current Monitoring:
Monitors current at each breaker branch and provides SNMP-based alerts and emails on high usage that risks a tripped circuit.
Branch Circuit Protection:
This PDU meets the UL and IEC 62368-1 requirement for branch circuit protection through UL 489 rated magnetic-hydraulic circuit breakers or UL 248 fuses.
Outlet Control:
On Switched PDUs, cycle power to individual outlets or groups of outlets to reboot servers or power off unused receptacles.
High Retention Locking Outlets:
PRO2 receptacles have high retention and are compatible with P-Lock type power cords.
Color-Coded Options:
Select from six colors to designate PDU circuits in the data center - black, white, red, green, blue, and yellow.
Overview
The Server Technology® PRO2 Switched POPS PDU provides control of outlet power and local LED input current monitoring, allowing IT personnel to determine safe levels of loading on a per-phase basis while installing equipment into the rack/cabinet. The integral PIPS® and POPS® technology provides billing-grade accurate measurement of current, voltage, active power, apparent power, power factor, crest factor, and accumulated energy at the input and at each output. These power data points, along with temperature and humidity measurements (provided via optional probes), are accessible through the built-in Web and CLI interfaces as well as through SNMP. The PRO2 Switched POPS "Primary"PDU can be connected to as many as three (with optional module) PRO2 Switched POPS "Link"PDUs to extend the network access to the redundant or secondary power feed without the risks of a daisy chain linking configuration.
