Smart Cabinet Power Distribution Unit with Current Monitoring

The Smart Cabinet Distribution Unit (CDU) provides reliable power distribution combined with local and remote power monitoring and environmental monitoring via IP. Use the network interface to view power, temperature and humidity levels via Web browser, or receive SNMP–based alarms and email alerts when conditions exceed de?ned thresholds. The Smart CDU family has the capability to daisy chain units together which gives the ability to use one IP address across different power circuits.

The Server Technology Sentry Switched PDU Feature Set:

Flexible Mounting Options

Zero-U button or bracket mounting for mounting vertical CDU’s in the back or on the side of the cabinet to avoid consuming valuable “U” space.

Branch Circuit Protection

All Sentry CDU’s meet the UL 60950-1 requirement for branch circuit protection and use either fuses or circuit breakers to protect each branch of outlets.

Input Current Monitoring

The CDU’s exclusive Digital True RMS Current Monitoring is critical to preventing overloads in high-density computing environments. Digital LED displays on the CDU enclosure report the input current of each phase or branch circuit

.

Environmental Monitoring

External probes, with 3-meter cable, capable of measuring temperature and humidity. Receive SNMP-based or email alert notifications when conditions exceed defined thresholds.

Expansion Module

Our exclusive method for linking additional outlets, on separate CDU’s, together under a single IP address, and provides support for A & B power in-feeds.

IP Access, Security & Communications

Web interface, SSL, SSH, Telnet, SNMP & RS-232 access, 10/100 Base T-Ethernet, SSLv3/TLSv1, SNMPv2, TACACS+, LDAP, LDAPS, RADIUS, DHCP, SMTP/Email, & Syslog.

Sentry Power Manager Compatibility

SPM is a powerful tool which allows monitoring, control capabilities, and management of multiple CDU’s in single or multiple locations. Features include alarm management, reporting and trending of kW & kW-h information that can be used for energy efficiency calculations, device monitoring and billing.
