Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment can connect to the mixed C13 and C19 outlet configuration?
A: The 12 C13 outlets accommodate standard servers, network switches, routers, and storage controllers with 10A-13A power requirements. The 12 C19 outlets support high-power enterprise servers, storage arrays, and blade chassis requiring 16A-20A capacity. This mixed outlet configuration enables a single PDU to power diverse data center equipment efficiently.
Q: How does the 50 ampere capacity benefit high-density deployments?
A: The 50 ampere power rating provides maximum power capacity for demanding enterprise environments, supporting high-density server racks, storage arrays, and compute clusters. This high-density power distribution unit eliminates the need for multiple lower-capacity PDUs, reducing complexity while providing sufficient power for the most demanding data center applications.
Q: What monitoring capabilities does this metered PDU provide?
A: The metered power distribution unit offers comprehensive real-time monitoring including current, voltage, power consumption, and energy usage tracking. The digital display provides local access to power metrics, while optional network connectivity enables integration with data center infrastructure management platforms for centralized monitoring and alerting.
Q: How does this PDU support different server types in the same rack?
A: The mixed outlet PDU design with both C13 and C19 outlets accommodates diverse server power requirements within a single rack. Standard 1U/2U servers typically use C13 connections, while high-performance servers, storage systems, and blade chassis require C19 connections. This enterprise PDU configuration optimizes power distribution for heterogeneous data center environments.
Q: Is this PDU suitable for mission-critical enterprise environments?
A: Yes, the Panduit MS PDU is engineered for enterprise-grade reliability with robust construction, comprehensive monitoring, and safety certifications.
