Introduction

Overview

ATEN has developed a new generation of green energy power distribution units (PDUs) to effectively increase the efficiency of data center power usage The ALTUSEN PE1108 / PE1208 / PE3108 / PE3208 / PE6108 / PE6208 / PE8108 and PE8208 eco PDUs are intelligent PDUs that contain 8 AC outlets and are available in various IEC or NEMA socket configurations.

They 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.

ALTUSEN 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 or outlet level, 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.

ALTUSEN eco PDU supports any 3rd party v3 SNMP Manager Software and ALTUSEN eco Sensors (eco PDU Manager Software). ALTUSEN 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.

Chapter 1. Introduction

Optional Accessories

Sensors

Sensors are optional accessories. You can use the eco PDU unit without sensors. However, if you want to have complete energy management of an instrumented data center with the use of the eco PDU, you would need to use eco Sensors software and install 4 sensors for each of the racks to generate a complete energy-efficient data and chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate data. 8-port models have 2 sensor ports. In this case, Sensor 1 needs to be installed at the intake of the rack and sensor 2 needs to be placed at the exhaust of IT equipment of the rack. A sensor-enabled installation is required to generate a more complete energy-efficient data and chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate data. Available sensors are show in the table, below:

Sensor Management

Sensors can be managed via the eco PDU’s built-in graphical user interface (GUI) or with the ALTUSEN eco Sensors software that can be downloaded from the ATEN website. The download link can be found on the software CD provided with the eco PDU package.

Cable Holders

Cable holders are optional accessories. For added safety, use ATEN LockYour-Plug cable holders to secure the cables from your attached devices in place on the eco PDU unit. Use only the ATEN Lock-Your-Plug cable holders that have been specifically designed to work with the eco PDU. Using any other kind of cable securing device could be highly dangerous.

The eco PDU can be mounted in a 19” (1U) rack. To rack mount the device, use the rack mounting brackets that came with your device. The brackets can be screwed to the front or rear sides of the device, and then the unit can slide into the front of the rack, as shown in the diagram below:

1. Important safety information regarding the placement of this device is provided on page 55. Please review it before proceeding.

2. Make sure that power to all the devices you will be connecting have been turned off. You must unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function.

eco PDU PE Series User Manual

Installation

To set up your eco PDU installation, refer to the installation diagram on the next page (the numbers in the diagram correspond to the numbered steps), and do the following:

1. Use a grounding wire to ground the eco PDU by connecting one end of the wire to its grounding terminal, and the other end of the wire to a suitable grounded object.

Note: Do not omit this step. Proper grounding helps to prevent damage to

the unit from surges or static electricity.

2. For each device you want to connect, use its power cable to connect from the device's AC socket to any available outlet on the eco PDU.

3. Plug the cable that connects the eco PDU to the LAN into the eco PDU's LAN port.

4. If you are using sensors in your eco PDU installation, connect them to the sensor ports on the unit’s front panel.

Note: Sensors are optional. Please see Optional Accessories, page 7, and

the detailed sensor installation diagrams later in this chapter for further information.

5. Connect the eco PDU's power cord to an AC power source.

Note: We strongly advise that you do not plug the eco PDU into a multi

socket extension cord, since it may not receive enough amperage to operate correctly.

Once you have finished these installation steps, you can turn on the eco PDU and the connected devices.

Note: We strongly recommend using cable ties and cable bars to safely and

securely route the cables attached to the front of the unit.

Chapter 2. Hardware Setup

Securing the Cables

For added safety, use ATEN Lock-Your-Plug cable holders to secure the cables from your attached devices in place on the eco PDU unit. Secure the cable holders using the specially designed holes around the individual power outlets, as shown below:

Remote Turn ON Method

Use the drop-down menu to select one of the choices, below:

Wake on LAN: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart option. If this

is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the eco PDU first sends a message to the computer telling it to prepare for a shutdown; it then waits for the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field to give the OS time to close down before the computer is powered down to standby mode.

Likewise, when the Outlet is turned On, the eco PDU waits for the amount time set in the Power On Delay field, then sends an Ethernet message to the computer connected to the Outlet telling the computer to turn itself On.

Note: For Safe Shutdown and Restart, the computer must be running Windows (98 or higher), or Linux, and the Safe Shutdown program (available by download from our website), must be installed and running on the computer.

System after AC Back: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart

option. If this is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the eco PDU first sends a message to the computer telling it to prepare for a shutdown; it then waits for the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field to give the OS time to close down before the computer is powered down.

When the Outlet is turned On, the eco PDU waits for the amount time set in the Power On Delay field, then sends power to the server. When the server receives the power, it turns itself on.

Note: For Safe Shutdown and Reboot, the computer must be running Windows (98 or higher), or Linux, and the Safe Shutdown program (available by download from our website), must be installed and running on the computer.

Kill the Power: If this option is selected, the eco PFDU waits for

the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field, and then turns the Outlet's power Off. Turning the power off performs a cold (non-safe) shutdown.

MAC Address In order to use either of the Safe Shutdown and Restart methods

the MAC address of the computer connected to the outlet must be filled in here.

IPv4 Configuration

The PDU’s IPv4 IP and DNS addresses (the traditional method of specifying IP addresses) can either be assigned dynamically (DHCP), or a fixed IP address can be specified.

 For dynamic IP address assignment, select the Obtain IP address

automatically radio button. (This is the default setting.)

 To specify a fixed IP address, select the Set IP address manually radio

button and fill in the IP address with values appropriate for your network.

 For automatic DNS Server address assignment, select the Obtain DNS

Server address automatically radio button.

 To specify the DNS Server address manually, select the Set DNS server

address manually radio button, and fill in the addresses for the Preferred

functions.

Chapter 4. Browser Operation

Private Certificate

When logging in over a secure (SSL) connection, a signed certificate is used to verify that the user is logging in to the intended site. For enhanced security, the Private Certificate section allows you to use your own private encryption key and signed certificate, rather than the default ATEN certificate.

There are two methods for establishing your private certificate: generating a self-signed certificate; and importing a third-party certificate authority (CA) signed certificate.

Generating a Self-Signed Certificate

If you wish to create your own self-signed certificate, a free utility – openssl.exe – is available for download over the web.

Obtaining a CA Signed SSL Server Certificate

For the greatest security, we recommend using a third party certificate authority (CA) signed certificate. To obtain a third party signed certificate, go to a CA (Certificate Authority) website to apply for an SSL certificate. After the CA sends you the certificate and private encryption key, save them to a convenient location on your computer.

Importing the Private Certificate

To import the private certificate, do the following:

1. Click Browse to the right of Private Key; browse to where your private

encryption key file is located; and select it.

2. Click Browse to the right of Certificate; browse to where your certificate

file is located; and select it.

3. Click Upload to complete the procedure.

Note: 1. Clicking Restore Default returns the device to using the default

ATEN certificate.

2. Both the private encryption key and the signed certificate must be imported at the same time.

When you have finished making your settings on this page, click Save.
