Aphel Launches Breakthrough Technology for PDU Monitoring



December 14, 2005

Aphel today announced that it has launched rPOWER Remote Power Management for Datacenter and IT applications. Featuring an eight channel, auto-scrolling capability, the rPower RS232 enabled meter, provides remote monitoring for 20 - 60 Amp (125 / 208 Volt) rackmount enclosure power solutions.

"We are very excited to start shipments of our first rPower units," said Kevin Macomber, Vice President of Business Development. "Since its development, we have seen huge interest in this technology set, particularly from our customers who manage mission critical facilities."

Unlike traditional ammeters which require the user to be in close proximity, rPower has an impressive high-resolution color display that can be viewed from as far as 12 feet or through the enclosure door perforation. Aside from the ammeter, the device connects to traditional console port switches and can be managed simultaneously with other RS232 based devices. rPower represents a major advancement in power monitoring as it greatly simplifies and reduces the cost of power management.

Aphel is a global supplier of high density, fault-tolerant power solutions for mission critical Datacenters, Technical Office, Laboratory and Retail environments. During 2005, Aphel manufactured 3,000 unique power solutions and is recognized as one of the most flexible power solution manufacturers in the world.
