  • Page 6: Overview

    PLANET IPM-08220 and IPM-16230 can be monitored by PLANET's Universal Network Management System (UNI-NMS) and smart discovery utility to support IT staff by remotely monitoring all network devices and powered devices (PDs) while incorporating ESG policy into the operational status assessment.
  • Page 7 Vertical IP-based 0U-Series Switched Power Manager with 2 Cascaded Ports IPM-08220, IPM-16230 Real-time Current Monitoring The LCD panel on the unit shows the aggregate current drawn from a power outlet. This feature aids installers in preventing overloaded circuits by issuing a visible warning when the current draw approaches the strip's maximum amperage.
  • Page 8 Unlike the conventional Power Distribution Units (PDUs) that risk cutting off the entire circuit during power overload, PLANET PDU takes a proactive approach. Equipped with a built-in circuit breaker and reset switch, it ensures stable power distribution among connected equipment. The 16-/32-amp circuit breaker acts as a safeguard against dangerous overloads, preventing potential damage to valuable equipment.
  • Page 9 Vertical IP-based 0U-Series Switched Power Manager with 2 Cascaded Ports IPM-08220, IPM-16230 Streamlined Connectivity with Cascade Ports Your networking experience can be elevated with the IPM-08220’s and IPM-16230's Cascade Input and Output Ports, ideal for seamlessly linking RJ45 inputs to the other one. This enables smooth integration of multiple PDUs, optimizing your network infrastructure.
