Eaton Advanced Monitored and Managed ePDUs

Monitor and control power consumption at the individual outlet level.

Eaton® offers two leading technologies for power distribution management at the rack enclosure level, Advanced Monitored (AM) and Managed (MA)
technologies. Both technologies offer outlet-level monitoring of power usage in kilowatt hours. They monitor critical factors such as voltage, current and
power factor in high accuracy. This level of monitoring provides the granularity to understand your energy consumption. Specifically, it can reveal where extra
capacity resides and allows you to assign power usage by customer, for example, an external customer within a colocation situation.

Key technology features:

  • Outlet level monitoring
  • High accuracy monitoring
  • Advanced LCD display
  • Flexible mounting
  • Color coded section labeling
  • Outlet level power switching – on/off/reboot (Managed ePDU only)

Power Usage Effectiveness

Power usage effectiveness (PUE) is a metric used to determine the energy efficiency of a data center and is determined by dividing the amount of power entering a data center by the power used to run the computer infrastructure within it. These ePDUs provide outlet level power consumption for Level 3 PUE calculations (Advanced level, uses server/outlet level readings).

Key applications

Designed for the needs of the modern data center, these ePDU® configurations are flexible and available with eight different input plugs. All versions feature 200-240V power output to C13 and C19 outlets.

SMB and networking closets

  • Single-phase 20/30A solution with L6-20P and L6-30P input plugs
  • Provides 4-5 kW of power to the rack enclosure
  • The 20A version features a detachable power cord with standard C20 input
  • 120V cords available for 20A version

Enterprise data centers

  • Three phase 20/30A solutions
  • 400V power configurations available – reducing cost of electrical distribution and transformer loss
  • Supports high-consumption applications requiring
  • 11-17 kW of power in racks

High density and Blade servers

  • Three-phase 50/60-amp solution with CS8365 and IEC60309 60A Delta input plugs
  • Support dense environments requiring 15-17 kW of power in the rack
  • 200-240V output

Receptacles

These units feature C13 and C19 receptacles

Environmental Monitoring

You can utilize the Environmental Monitoring Probe to track internal and external temperatures, humidity and contact closure. This information allows you to operate the ePDU up to 50°C, in turn reducing cooling costs.

Power Management Software

Eaton provides software management capabilities for every application. Out-of-the-box Web browser management is built into the ePDU and SNMP allows integration to thirdparty network management. This also allows you to connect to Eaton’s management software options: Intelligent Power® Manager or Power Xpert®.
