OVERVIEW
The innovative Power Distribution Unit (PDU) now allows you to control the rack as well as control the room. This PDU adds a basic level of control by allowing remote reset of devices via a power cycle, reducing the need to send staff to a customer site. By managing power delivery, the PDU monitors energy consumption of each connected component and restricts power to any or all devices when not in use. With 8 individually monitored and controlled AC outlets, built-in 12 Volt power supply, 2 sets of 4 AxLink Bus Strips, and power monitoring for each outlet, the PDU is flexible and can reduce wasteful standby power usage. Native NetLinx control over AxLink integrates the PDU with AMX Control systems and Resource Management Suite (RMS).

COMMON APPLICATION
Ideal for commercial and residential installations wanting to reduce energy usage costs, minimize their carbon footprint and protect valuable electronics. With AC and AxLink power, current sensing, and available temperature monitoring, this all-in-one easily adds both convenience and a Green element to installations.

FEATURES

  • Individually Controlled Outlets - Allows a remote reboot for devices in the rack reducing on-site service calls
  • Power Management of Connected Devices - Reduces standby energy usage (vampire power/phantom load)
  • Built-in Power Current Sensing on Each AC Outlet - Makes it easy to tell if a device is powered on or off
  • Switched and Monitored AxLink Bus Strips - Allows power and switching of AxLink or 12V powered devices (in banks of four)
  • Native NetLinx Device - Simplifies integration

  • U.S. and International voltages supported utilizing IEC plug receptacles and adapter cables
  • PDU includes 12 Volt power supply and 2 sets of 4 AxLink Bus Strips with power distribution saving costs over buying these devices separately
  • Front mounted reset button for easy access when installed in an equipment rack
  • Compact design only takes up one rack unit
  • Optional accessory cables provide convenient cabling either direct to device or 120 Volt NEMA adapters.
  • Localized Power Monitoring – Allows end users to track power usage of each component for management, troubleshooting or showcasing Green initiatives.
