5-fold switched and outlet-metered PDU

Expert Power Control 8001-1 for more operational security and energy efficiency in 19-inch installations

Top Features:

  • Demonstrably fewer and shorter downtimes of your critical IT and AV infrastructure

  • Detect AV and IT problems at an early stage: Through proactive power monitoring per port and environment monitoring

  • Measurably increased energy efficiency (Green IT and AV): Electricity cost and CO2 savings through controlled switching off of devices

  • Integrate anywhere: Quickly and easily integrate anywhere with API interface: REST API, HTTPS, SNMP, Telnet and MQTT

  • Fix AV and IT problems quickly and effectively: Remote reboot or with the self-healing function (automatic restart) thanks to integrated watchdogs

    • Event and schedule controlled switching

    • Precise current metering per power outlet of up to 9 units

    • Connector for plug-and-play sensors for real-time monitoring

    • Fast and easy installation on support rails with hat profile

    • NTP function can be activated

    • More flexibility through Radius, Modbus TCP and MQTT 3.1.1 support

    Switching function

    • Each power port can be switched via HTTP(S), SNMP, ModbusTCP or command line interface via Telnet, SSH, MQTT and serial interface

    • Programmable on/off sequences for remote reboots (Remote Reboot)

    • Power ports can be switched when preset sensor thresholds are exceeded

    • Self-healing function thanks to 5-channel watchdog: Each power port can be assigned its own Watchdog (ICMP/TCP), which initiates an automatic restart if necessary

    • Switching state and switch-on delay up to 9999 seconds (166 minutes) individually adjustable for each output port after power failure

    • Current peaks due to increased inrush currents are automatically prevented by sequential switch-on with a latency of 1 second

    Metering function

    • Power consumption metering (kwH) per power outlet with 2 energy counters: one counter counts consistently, the other counter is resettable

    • Metering of current (A), voltage (V), phase angle, power factor, frequency (Hz), active power (W), apparent power (VA) and reactive power (VAr) per power outlet

    • Connector for combined plug-and-play sensors (temperature, humidity and air pressure) to prevent physical hazards that often occur, such as overheating and increased humidity or air pressure.

    Security

    • Generation of status messages and alarms (e-mail, syslog, SNMP traps MQTT, SSH, Telnet)

    • Encrypted e-mails (SSL, STARTTLS)

    • Access protection by IP access control

    • Support for the 802.1X standard for port authentication in the network

    • Encrypted communication through SSL (TLS 1.1, 1.2, 1.3) and SSH

    • Password protected access

    • Beeper for audible alarm when sensor limits are exceeded/deceeded

    Operation

    • Easy-to-read LED display for displaying total current, IP address and sensor values

    • Firmware update via Ethernet during operation (no restart required)

    • Simple and flexible configuration via web browser, Windows or Linux program

    • Dynamic assignment of an IP address via DHCP or manual assignment of static IP address

    • Rapid commissioning thanks to free and reliable drivers from our technology partners

  • Technical Details

    • Measurement of key electrical parameters: current (A), voltage (V), phase angle, power factor, frequency (Hz), active power (W), apparent power (VA) and reactive power (VAr)

    • Encrypted communication through SSL (TLS 1.1, 1.2, 1.3) and SSH
