As part of its NRGence line, ATEN has developed a new generation of green energy power distribution units (eco PDUs) to effectively increase the efficiency of data centre power usage. The NRGence PE8216 eco PDUs are intelligent PDUs that contain 16 AC outlets and are available in various IEC socket configurations. Models in the advanced PE8 ranges feature NRGence's proactive overload protection, which automatically powers off the last outlet that caused the current overload. NRGence eco PDUs provide secure, centralized, intelligent, power management (power on, off, cycle) of data centre IT equipment (servers, storage systems, KVM switches, network devices, serial data devices, etc.), as well as the ability to monitor the centre's health environment via sensors. NRGence eco PDUs offer remote power control combined with real-time power measurement - allowing you to control and monitor the power status of devices attached to the PDUs, either at the PDU device, bank, or outlet level, depending on the model, from practically any location via a TCP/IP connection. The power status of each outlet can be set individually, allowing users to switch each device On/Off. The eco PDU also offers comprehensive power analysis reports which can separate departments and locations, providing precise measurements of current, voltage, power and watt-hour in a real-time display. Installation and operation is fast and easy: plugging cables into their appropriate ports and user-friendly browser-based configuration and management is all that is entailed. Since the eco PDU firmware is upgradeable over the Net, you can stay current with the latest functionality improvements simply by downloading updates from our website as they become available.
