This APC Metered Rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU) provides active metering to enable energy optimization and circuit protection. User-defined alarm thresholds mitigate risk with real-time local and remote alerts to warn of potential circuit overloads. A metered rack PDU provides power utilization data to allow Data Center Managers to make informed decisions on load balancing and right sizing IT environments to lower total cost of ownership. Real power monitoring, a temperature/humidity sensor port, locking IEC receptacles and ultra low profile circuit breakers are included. You can access and configure this Metered Rack PDU through secure Web, SNMP or Telnet Interfaces which are complimented by APC Centralized Management platforms using InfraStruxure Central, Operations, Capacity and Energy Efficiency.
