Technology 2011 : IP Power Management : Avocent PM 1000/2000/3000 (3)




Features and benefits

• Onboard Web Interface – Can be installed for direct access right out of the box or it can be configured as part of a larger integrated solution using the DSView 3 management software
• IP and Serial Interface Options – Options to install by connecting directly to the network or save IP connections by using the serial interface to connect directly to Avocent appliances already connected to the network
• Daisy Chaining – Saves the number of IP addresses or console/KVM ports that are required to manage all power distribution needs
• Electronic Overcurrent Protection (OCP) – An added layer of protection that is activated in the event of minor overloads; during such events, outlets are turned off first instead of the primary OCP tripping
• Sequential Startup – Protects integrity of all upstream electrical infrastructure by staggering the inrush current draw of all plugged-in devices
• Supports Environmental Sensors – Chain up to six environmental sensors per PDU to measure and monitor temperature and humidity at several different points within the rack for notification of any impending environmental issues
• Outlet-Level, Phase-Level and Strip-Level Metering with Threshold/Alert Capabilities – Provides preemptive notification of any impending overload issues before they occur and simplifies the task of installing new equipment Note - measurement resolution +/- 5%
• Capability to Remotely Switch Outlets Through Onboard Web Interface, DSView 3 Management Software – Allows power to hung up IT equipment to be recycled, turned on or turned off remotely for faster resolution time (not available on PM 1000 or PM 2000 PDUs)
• Integration with DSView 3 Management Software – Single interface for management of IT equipment and PDUs simplifies mapping of outlets to servers and other equipment in order to reduce and minimize power cycling the wrong equipment
• Integration with DSView 3 Software Power Manager Plug-In – Track historical trends to measure and monitor IT power consumption, capacity and cost in order to understand what issues exist and to make more informed decisions in the future
