Unleash Unmatched Power and Intelligence with the 280A 20-Socket Rackmount Smart Power Distribution Unit
In the demanding landscape of modern data centers, high-performance computing clusters, and industrial facilities, reliable and intelligent power distribution is not just a utility—it’s the bedrock of operational integrity. Introducing the 280A 20-Socket Rackmount Smart Power Distribution Unit (PDU), an enterprise-grade solution engineered to meet the highest demands for power capacity, intelligent management, and unwavering reliability. This formidable PDU is designed for professionals who require granular control and robust performance for their mission-critical infrastructure, providing a centralized, high-capacity power hub that ensures both stability and efficiency.
High-Capacity Power for Dense Environments
At the core of this Smart Power Distribution Unit lies its exceptional power handling capability. With a staggering rated current of 280A and a versatile rated voltage range of 380V-480V, this PDU is built to energize the most power-hungry equipment. Whether you are running racks filled with blade servers, networking switches, storage arrays, or industrial automation controllers, this unit delivers the substantial power required to maintain peak performance without compromise.
The power output is as impressive as its input capacity. Each of the 20 high-density 4-pin sockets is capable of delivering significant wattage, ensuring that even the most demanding devices receive stable and consistent power:
- Max Output Power per Outlet (under 380V): Up to 13,163W
- Max Output Power per Outlet (under 480V): Up to 16,627W
This immense output capacity makes the PDU an ideal choice for high-density rack environments where space is at a premium, but power requirements are constantly growing. By consolidating power distribution into a single, robust unit, you can simplify cabling, reduce clutter, and improve airflow within the rack, all while ensuring your critical systems have the power they need to operate flawlessly.
Intelligent IP-Based Monitoring and Management
Beyond its raw power, this device truly earns its title as a Smart Power Distribution Unit through its advanced digital IP metering and remote management capabilities. In today’s data-driven world, what you can’t measure, you can’t manage. This intelligent PDU provides the critical data needed to optimize your power infrastructure for efficiency, cost savings, and proactive maintenance.
Integrated IP-based monitoring allows network administrators and facility managers to remotely track key electrical parameters in real-time. From a centralized dashboard, you can oversee voltage, current, power consumption (in kWh), and overall load on the unit and individual outlets. This level of insight is invaluable for:
- Capacity Planning: Accurately assess current power usage and forecast future needs, preventing over-provisioning and ensuring you have adequate capacity for expansion.
- Load Balancing: Distribute power loads evenly across circuits to prevent overloads and maximize the efficiency of your power infrastructure.
- Energy Efficiency: Identify “ghost servers” or inefficient hardware that consumes power without providing value. Use precise consumption data to drive green IT initiatives and reduce operational expenditures.
- Remote Troubleshooting: Diagnose power-related issues from anywhere in the world, reducing the need for on-site intervention and minimizing downtime.
By transforming a passive component into an active, data-providing asset, this Smart Power Distribution Unit empowers you to make informed decisions that enhance reliability and lower the total cost of ownership (TCO).
Engineered for Seamless Integration and Reliability
Designed with the professional IT environment in mind, this PDU features a standard rackmount form factor. Its dimensions of 483mm x 44.5mm x 44.5mm allow it to be seamlessly integrated into any standard 19-inch server rack, occupying minimal vertical space. The horizontal orientation ensures easy access to all 20 outlets from the front or rear of the rack, simplifying equipment installation and maintenance.
Reliability is further enhanced by its superior build quality and robust protection mechanisms. The unit is equipped with a comprehensive protection system, featuring 10 high-quality 40A Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs), with each MCB protecting a pair of outlets. This design offers superior safety by isolating faults. If one device shorts out or draws excessive current, the corresponding MCB will trip, shutting down power to only that pair of outlets while the other 18 outlets continue to function uninterrupted. This prevents a single device failure from cascading into a full rack or system-wide outage, thereby maximizing uptime for all other connected equipment.
This commitment to quality and safety is validated by its certifications, including CE, ROHS, and SAA. These marks of approval demonstrate compliance with stringent international standards for safety, environmental responsibility, and performance, giving you the peace of mind that comes from deploying a professionally vetted and reliable product.
Ideal Applications
The unique combination of high power, dense connectivity, and intelligent management makes this Smart Power Distribution Unit the perfect solution for a wide range of demanding applications, including:
- Enterprise Data Centers: Power high-density server racks and manage energy consumption across the entire facility.
- Colocation Facilities: Provide tenants with reliable, metered power that allows for accurate billing and capacity management.
- High-Performance Computing (HPC): Deliver the immense power required for supercomputing clusters used in scientific research, financial modeling, and AI development.
- Telecommunication Hubs: Ensure uninterrupted power for critical network switches, routers, and communication equipment.
- Industrial Automation: Power control systems, robotics, and manufacturing equipment on the factory floor where reliability is paramount.
With a 12-month warranty and a minimum order quantity (MOQ) of just one piece, it’s easy to acquire and deploy this powerful solution to immediately upgrade your power infrastructure. Invest in a power distribution solution that is not only powerful and reliable but also intelligent enough to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
