New switched three-phase PDUs from Tripp Lite
Data center managers looking for more control and visibility into power in their environments can get new power distribution units (PDUs) from Tripp Lite designed for three-phase applications running from 5.7 kVA to 12.6 kVA. With it, data center managers can turn on, turn off, recycle or lock out power to individual devices or groups of devices, as well as gather power information at the “receptacle” level. Power consumption of the PDU can be viewed per-phase or per-receptacle, either locally at the PDU, or remotely via Ethernet.
