Introduction

Overview

As part of its NRGence line, ATEN has developed a new generation of green
energy power distribution units (eco PDUs) to effectively increase the
efficiency of data center power usage. The NRGence PE7216 / PE7324 /
PE8121kJ / PE8216 / PE8324 / PE9216 / PE9324 / PE7328 / PE9330 eco PDUs
are intelligent PDUs that contain 16, 21, 24, 28, or 30 AC outlets and are
available in various IEC socket configurations. Models in the advanced PE9
range feature a dedicated 8/14-outlet bank for critical load devices, and both
the PE8 and PE9 ranges feature NRGence's proactive overload protection,
which automatically powers off the last outlet that caused the current overload.
NRGence eco PDUs provide secure, centralized, intelligent, power
management (power on, off, cycle) of data center IT equipment (servers,
storage systems, KVM switches, network devices, serial data devices, etc.), as
well as the ability to monitor the center's health environment via sensors*. The
basic characteristics of each model are shown in the table on page 3.
NRGence eco PDUs offer remote power control combined with real-time
power measurement – allowing you to control and monitor the power status of
devices attached to the PDUs, either at the PDU device, bank, or outlet level,
depending on the model, from practically any location via a TCP/IP
connection*.
The power status of each outlet can be set individually, allowing users to switch
each device On/Off. The eco PDU also offers comprehensive power analysis
reports which can separate departments and locations, providing precise
measurements of current, voltage, power and watt-hour in a real-time display.
Installation and operation is fast and easy: plugging cables into their
appropriate ports and user-friendly browser-based configuration and
management is all that is entailed. Since the eco PDU firmware is upgradeable
over the Net, you can stay current with the latest functionality improvements
simply by downloading updates from our website as they become available.
NRGence eco PDU supports any 3rd party V3 SNMP Manager Software and
NRGence eco Sensors (eco PDU Manager Software). eco Sensors provides
you with an easy method for managing multiple devices, offering an intuitive
and user-friendly Graphical User Interface that allows you to configure a PDU
device and monitor power status of the equipment connected to it.
