Rack-mounted PDU power strips are designed to distribute power to IT infrastructure in the data center. Their function is to distribute power from an available source. In the event of a power failure via Intelligent Power Manager software, the strips switch to power from an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) until a backup generator starts up, which takes over the facility's power supply. In addition, RACK PDU strips manage power, monitor and control the power consumption of multiple devices in data center (Data Center) environments. They enable the distribution of electrical power, as they can be managed remotely or via a local network.

Eaton PDU power strips

Rack-mounted PDU power strips are designed to distribute power to IT infrastructure in the data center. Their function is to distribute power from an available source. In the event of a power failure via Intelligent Power Manager software, the strips switch to power from an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) until a backup generator starts up, which takes over the facility's power supply. In addition, RACK PDU strips manage power, monitor and control the power consumption of multiple devices in data center environments(IT Infrastructure and Data Center). As such, they enable power distribution electrically, but can be managed remotely or via a local network.

Eaton offers smart ePDU power strips, which are designed to enable switching on and off the IT equipment to which it is connected. With intelligent ePDU power strips, it is possible to protect power lines, measure and control power consumption and monitor current environmental conditions in RACK cabinets.
