Server Technology Launches Smart, 50/60Amp CDU (Cabinet Power Distribution Unit) with Mixed Outlet Configuration of (12) C19 and (6) C13

3-Phase, Wye or Delta, 208V Model Now Available

Server Technology, the industry leader for Power Distribution Unit and Management Solutions, announces the availability of the CS-18V mixed-outlet Cabinet Power Distribution Unit (CDU) with (6) IEC C13 outlets and (12) IEC C19 outlets. This Smart CDU provides reliable power distribution combined with local and network power monitoring and environmental monitoring via IP. Use the network interface to view power, temperature and humidity levels via Web browser, or receive SNMP–based alarms and email alerts when conditions exceed defined thresholds. The six local current monitors, positioned above each of the six branch circuits on the CDU, can easily be inverted via the web GUI or serial interface to satisfy overhead or floor fed power. These LED monitors provide True RMS current monitoring for onsite verification of the current draw (in Amps) on each branch circuit. This product uses circuit breakers for branch circuit protection, and meets the UL 60950-1 requirement.

The CS-18V delivers over 21 kW of power to the IT devices located within the rack. This makes it perfect for blade servers or other high-density server applications. Combined with a link unit, there is enough power to provide for redundancy or room-for-future expansion as new devices are added to the rack. Providing the proper amount of power during the initial rack configuration reduces the number of cables under the floor blocking airflow, saves poles at the breaker panel, saves the cost and time of adding additional whips later and reduces the number of PDUs required within the rack itself.

This 3-Phase model is a high-density solution, delivering 208-240V at 50 or 60 Amps with the option of a Wye or Delta power infeed. Along with the original 18 outlets on the CDU, an expansion CDU can be linked to the master. This daisy chain capability allows for both the master and expansion, along with temperature and humidity measurements, to all be controlled under one IP address.

The Smart product line allows for network monitoring of the CDU using either the serial interface, internal web interface or the Sentry Power Manager (SPM) Software System. Each Smart CDU that Server Technology produces, including this mixed-outlet model, supports two external 10-foot probes used to monitor both temperature and humidity. Receive SNMP or email-based alerts when power or environmental conditions are exceeded.
