Product Overview
A Power Distribution Unit (PDU) from Custom Networks can provide your data center with much-needed management solutions. For a PDU with increased capabilities that you can rely on, our technicians recommend APC’s AP7800. This device not only manages power currents, but it also remotely monitors the connected loads of each socket. When space is at a premium, this PDU will improve efficiency, increase transparency, and help you manage your data center.
Metered Rack
What sets this APC model apart from other PDUs is its power metering capabilities. The device actively meters the energy usage of each individual socket. As you add new equipment, you can observe its immediate impact on the current. Constant monitoring allows you to stop overloads before they become a threat. Users can set an alarm threshold. Once power levels exceed defined limits, a visual and network alarm will trigger, notifying you and mitigating risks. The information provided by the metered rack PDU also optimizes energy usage. With real-time consumption data, IT personnel can make informed decisions that improve load balancing and reduce overall energy usage. This metered rack PDU is not just a management tool; it provides insight into a data center’s efficiency, and it can reduce total energy costs.
