This booklet provides information on installing
and operating Metered Rack Power Distribution
Units (PDUs). Each PDU has a sensor that
measures the current being used by the PDU and
its attached devices, and can be monitored through
the Web, Telnet, SSH, SNMP, or InfraStruXure
Manager interfaces.
Display interface
The display interface on the PDU shows the
aggregate current being used by the PDU and its
attached devices. An alarm occurs if the aggregate
current is above the high threshold value or below
the low threshold value that you configure.
Receiving inspection

Mountin g options
You can install the PDU in one of two ways: using
toolless mounting pegs (provided) or mounting
brackets (provided). The 1-U and 2-U horizontal
PDUs must be mounted using the horizontal
mounting brackets.
Vertical mounting.
• To install the PDU using the toolless mounting
method, install it in the rear of the NetShelter
VX or SX Enclosure, in the cable channel
directly behind the rear vertical mounting rails.
• To install the PDU using the mounting
brackets, install it on a vertical mounting rail
on your rack or enclosure.
Horizontal mounting.
To install the PDU using the horizontal mounting
brackets, install the brackets on the PDU and then
attach the PDU to the rack using cage nuts
(provided with your enclosure).
T oolless mounting
1. Slide both mounting pegs into the holes
located in the channel in the rear panel of the
enclosure.
2. Snap the PDU into place by pushing it downward until it locks into position.

Horizontal mounting. You can mount the PDU in
a 19-inch NetShelter or other EIA-310-D standard
19-inch rack:
1. Choose a mounting position for the PDU with
either the display or the rear facing out of the
enclosure.
2. Attach the mounting brackets to the PDU,
using the flat-head screws (provided).
3. Choose a location for the unit:
The unit occupies one U-space. A
notched hole (or a number, on newer
enclosures) on the enclosure’s vertical
