Basic Power Strips feature 20A or less with thermal or no circuit breakers. |
Metered Power Strips feature 20A or less, a local meter with thermal or no circuit breakers. |
Basic PDUs feature electromagnectic circuit breakers which isolate branch circuits to a particular group of power outlets preventing distribution of power on other circuit segments. |
Metered PDUs include an in-line digital current meter that displays the amount of current being used by attached equipment so that you can track current use and estimate remaining power on each circuit segment. |
Monitored PDUs include an Ethernet port that allows network-based monitoring of current meters using a web browser and can forward alarms as SNMP traps when user-defined current limits are met. |
Controlled PDUs feature switchable outlets for remote power cycling with optional port monitoring which lets you measure current use at each outlet. |
The PowerScope In-Line Meter lets you upgrade basic and metered PDUs with an in-line current meter that features network-based current monitoring to help yo track where and when power is used. |
