Switch Series PDUs play an important role in managing power failures and outages, ensuring uninterrupted power delivery to interconnected devices, reliability of data center operations, and equipment protection. The switch series PDU detects power faults in real time by monitoring the latest voltage and different power parameters of each socket. When the power parameters of a certain outlet or power channel change beyond a preset threshold, the PDU can immediately sense a fault.
When a power failure is detected, the PDU can automatically transfer the associated system to a switched outlet or power channel. This reduces the impact of tool outages and increases equipment availability. It can also promptly notify supervisors of fault situations through email, SMS, SNMP traps, etc.
When power is restored, Switch Series PDUs allow supervisors to define how to restart associated equipment when power is restored. This avoids peak power loads and conflicts between devices. In addition, the switch series PDU provides strict personnel authentication and access control mechanisms. Only authorized customers may perform intensity switching operations to ensure protection against misuse or abuse.
