HP Intelligent Power Distribution Unit

The new HP Intelligent Power Distribution Unit (iPDU) brings state of the art management and control to rack mounted power distribution units (PDU) to prevent over provisioning of power from restricting growth in your data center.

Using the core and stick architecture of HP's Modular PDU line, the HP Intelligent PDU provides monitoring of power consumption at the core, load segment, stick, and outlet level with unmatched precision and accuracy. Remote management is built in and even provides power cycle ability of individual outlets on the Intelligent Extension Bars.

• Mountable in 1U or zero U locations to save valuable space in the rack
• Monitor and control outlets individually for the ultimate control of power distribution within the rack
• Know exactly what the power consumption is for every component in the rack with an unmatched level of accuracy of less than 1% variation

Ideal for...

Enterprise customers that need to reclaim trapped capacity and control power distribution to extend the life of their data centers.

• Intelligent Power Discovery can automatically discover and map servers to specific outlets insuring correlation between equipment and power data collected
• With the 99% accuracy above 1 watt, the iPDU can help you track and control power other PDUs will not be able to monitor
• Information is gathered from all monitoring points at 1/2 second intervals to insure the highest precision
• Capable of measuring current draw below 100mw, the iPDU can detect a new server even before it is powered on
