Basic Rack PDUs
Power distribution for
rack-mount equipment

of Basic Rack Power
Distribution Units (PDUs),
which allow users to
distribute power outlets to rack-mount equipment. Horizontal and vertical units
are available as well as a variety of power inputs and outputs to fit most power
environments. APC now offers Basic Rack PDUs that mount vertically, without

Switched Rack PDUs
Power distribution that remotely controls power
to individual outlets and monitors the aggregate
power consumption
APC’s Switched Rack Power Distribution Units (PDUs) are
premium solutions to many of the power management problems
seen in today’s IT environments. Some of the problems are
unauthorized use of power outlets, locked-up equipment, in-rush
current, overloaded circuits, and the need of remote access to
power outlets in the rack. Users can access, configure, and
control the Switched Rack PDUs through Web, SNMP, or Telnet
Interfaces. The Basic Rack PDU family contains solutions that
support up to 12.5kW of load.
Metered Rack PDUs
Power distribution units that monitor the aggregate
power consumption of connected equipment
APC's Metered Rack Power Distribution Units (PDUs) provide power
distribution as well as equip on-site installers with the ability to
monitor the aggregate current draw as equipment is connected to
the unit. These Metered Rack PDUs also have alarm thresholds that
when exceeded provide alarms to alert users of potential problems.
These features help eliminate the possibility of an overloaded circuit.
