Power Distribution Unit
Power Distribution Unit (PDU) is a device with multiple outlets capable of supplying power to all the devices within a rack. PDUs can be classified into two categories:
- Non-Intelligent PDUs—distribute power evenly to all the outlets.
- Intelligent PDUs—provide advanced monitoring capabilities and remote control.
There are different types of PDU devices available in the market that you can choose from, however Power Manager supports only metered PDUs.
Metered PDUs are intelligent rack PDUs that display power consumption over a secure network. They help Administrators in avoiding overloading the circuits and in calculating the Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), provide accurate power usage, and available capacity at rack level. Also, they help in identifying the power consumption at server and various device levels to charge the customers of a data center as per their usage.
