Tripp Lite Announces New Switched and Metered Power Distribution Units with Free Centralized Configuration and Monitoring Software
Chicago, IL (February 27, 2008)-Tripp Lite, a world-leading manufacturer of power protection equipment, has again expanded its line of power distribution units (PDUs) to provide new options in power capacity, form factor, and management. Most new models feature Tripp Lite's built-in network interface that allows users to remotely monitor and control individual outlets and connected devices via SNMP, Web or Telnet.
"The new PDUs demonstrate our commitment to provide customers with the highest level of network functionality," said Rich Feldhaus, Tripp Lite Product Specialist. "The switched PDUs allows network managers to remotely control individual outlets and connected devices by remotely rebooting locked devices. Users can also extend runtime of critical devices by remotely turning off non-essential devices during a power interruption. These features will no doubt greatly reduce the number of costly service calls."
Tripp Lite's new switched Power Distribution Units feature the following models:
Model PDUMV15NET (120V): 15 amps, 0U (vertical), 16 outlets, digital load meter.
Model PDUMV20NET (120V): 20 amps, 0U (vertical), 24 outlets, digital load meter.
Models PDUMV30NET (120V) and PDUMV30HVNET (208V): 30 amps, 0U (vertical), 24 outlets, digital load meter.
Models PDUMH30NET (120V) and PDUMH30HVNET (208V): 30 amps, 2U Rackmount, 16 outlets, digital load meter.
Model PDUMV20HVNET (208/230V): 20 amps, 0U (vertical), 24 IEC outlets, switched to allow remote control of individual outlets.
Model PDUMH15HVNET (208/230V): 15 amps, 1U Rackmount/0U (vertical), 8 IEC outlets, switched to allow remote control of individual outlets.
Model PDUMH20HVNET (208/230V): 20 amps, 1U Rackmount/0U (vertical), 8 IEC outlets, switched to allow remote control of individual outlets.
Model PDUMV20HV (208/230V): 20 amps, 0U (vertical), 38 IEC outlets, digital load meter.
Models PDUV30HV (208V) and PDUMV30HV (208V): Two 15- amp circuits, 0U (vertical), 38 outlets, digital load meter (PDUMV30HV only).
For greater functionality, Tripp Lite offers free PowerAlert network management software to centrally monitor and control power for up to 250 UPS systems or PDUs on their network. PowerAlert allows managers to mass-configure multiple remote device settings from a single location and can also be set to auto-discover UPS and PDU devices in specific network segments or IP address ranges. This software-only solution saves network managers the installation costs normally associated with other solutions that require additional hardware or license purchases.
PowerAlert software extends PDU capability beyond central monitoring and power control. Using Tripp Lite's Environmental Sensor (Model #ENVIROSENSE) and a SNMP Web card (Model #SNMPWEBCARD), managers can also monitor external temperature/humidity and contact closure inputs.
