Elevate Your Power Management with the 32A 12-Outlet Monitored Smart Power Distribution Unit

In today’s mission-critical IT and industrial environments, power management is about far more than simple distribution. It demands intelligence, visibility, and robust protection. Introducing a sophisticated Smart Power Distribution Unit (PDU) engineered to provide precise control and comprehensive monitoring for your most valuable assets. Designed for high-density server racks, data centers, and industrial applications, this unit combines high-capacity power delivery with a suite of intelligent features to ensure maximum uptime, operational efficiency, and peace of mind.

High-Capacity and Reliable Power Distribution

At its core, this PDU is built to handle demanding power loads with unwavering reliability.

• High Power Rating: With a substantial 32A input current and a versatile operating voltage range of 220V-250V, this PDU is perfectly suited for supplying power to racks filled with high-performance servers, networking switches, and storage arrays.
• Generous Outlet Count: It features 12 UK-style (BS 1363) outlets, providing ample connection points for a full rack of equipment. This design minimizes the need for multiple, less reliable power strips, streamlining your cabinet’s power infrastructure.
• Robust Industrial Input: Power is delivered to the unit via a durable 1.8-meter cable terminating in an industry-standard IEC 60309 32A plug. This blue, high-amperage connector ensures a secure, locked-in connection, preventing accidental disconnections that could lead to catastrophic downtime.
• Superior Build Quality: The chassis is constructed from a rugged aluminum alloy shell, which not only provides exceptional durability but also aids in heat dissipation. The outlet modules are made from uninflammable PC material rated UL94V-0, the highest standard for fire resistance, ensuring safety within your high-value installations.

Advanced Monitoring for Proactive Control

What truly sets this device apart is its capability as a Smart Power Distribution Unit. It transforms a simple power strip into an intelligent hub for data-driven power management.

• Onboard LCD Display: A crystal-clear LCD screen on the control module provides immediate, at-the-rack visibility into critical power metrics. With a glance, technicians can monitor:
  • Voltage (U): Ensure incoming power is stable and within tolerance.
  • Total Current (I): Track the real-time load on the PDU.
  • Total Power (P): See the total wattage being consumed by connected devices.
  • Energy Consumption (kWh): Monitor accumulated energy usage for accurate billing, departmental charge-backs, or efficiency analysis.
• Intuitive Local Interface: Using the simple UP, DOWN, and MENU buttons, users can navigate through display options and configure basic settings directly from the unit, making initial setup and on-site diagnostics quick and easy.

Comprehensive Remote Management and Integration

This PDU is equipped with powerful networking capabilities that allow for complete remote oversight and control, enabling a proactive approach to data center management.

• Network Connectivity: Integrated RJ45 Ethernet ports allow the PDU to connect directly to your network. This enables administrators to access all monitoring data from a central management console, web browser, or through protocols like SNMP. This remote access is crucial for identifying potential issues, balancing power loads across phases and PDUs, and planning for future capacity needs without needing to be physically present.
• Cascading Capability: The dedicated CASCADE IN/OUT ports are a standout feature for large-scale deployments. They allow you to link multiple PDUs together, creating a master/slave hierarchy. This significantly reduces the number of IP addresses and network switch ports required to manage an entire row of racks, simplifying your network architecture and lowering total cost of ownership.
• Environmental Monitoring: The dedicated T/H (Temperature/Humidity) port allows for the connection of optional environmental sensors. By monitoring temperature and humidity within the rack, you can prevent equipment damage from overheating and ensure optimal operating conditions, receiving alerts if thresholds are breached.

Multi-Layered Equipment Protection

Protecting sensitive and expensive IT equipment is paramount. This Smart PDU integrates multiple layers of protection to safeguard against common electrical threats.

• Integrated Surge Protection (SPD): The unit features a built-in Surge Protection Device, confirmed by a dedicated “SPD” indicator light. This critical component shields all connected equipment from damaging voltage spikes, transients, and electrical surges, which can be caused by lightning strikes, utility switching, or other upstream electrical events.
• Overload Protection: To prevent hazardous situations and protect the PDU itself, the unit includes built-in overload protection. If the total current drawn by the connected devices exceeds the safe limit of 32A, the PDU’s internal circuit breaker will trip, instantly cutting power to the outlets and preventing equipment damage or a potential fire hazard.

This 32A 12-Outlet Monitored Smart Power Distribution Unit is more than just a component; it is a comprehensive solution for modern power management. By delivering reliable, high-capacity power while offering granular local and remote monitoring, enterprise-grade scalability, and robust surge protection, it provides the tools necessary to maintain uptime, optimize resource utilization, and protect your critical infrastructure. It is the intelligent foundation for any serious data center, server room, or industrial control cabinet.
