Switched Rack PDU Installation and Quick-Start Manual

Preliminary Information

Features of the Switched American Power Conversion’s Switched Rack Power Distribution Unit Rack PDU (PDU) is a stand-alone, network-manageable device that allows

programmable control of 8, 16, or 24 power outlets through its Web, SNMP, or Control Console network interfaces.

Using the Switched Rack PDU, you can do the following:

Set the following values for each outlet independently:

Power On Delay

Power Off Delay

Reboot Duration

Set up power sequencing to avoid inrush current at system start-up.

Manage access to outlets through the following three types of user accounts:

Administrator

Device Manager

Outlet User

Upgrade the Switched Rack PDU firmware without affecting the outlet state.

Provide up to twenty-four Outlet User accounts.

Import the event logs into a spreadsheet application.

Know that passwords are secure through the Switched Rack PDU’s basic and MD5 authentication.

Monitor the aggregate current draw of the Switched Rack PDU, which helps avoid overloaded circuits.

Note

Warning

The Switched Rack PDU does not provide power protection. Therefore, APC does not recommend plugging the unit directly into any unprotected power source, such as a wall outlet.

The Switched Rack PDU contains a non-replaceable lithium coin cell battery. Do not attempt to replace the battery.

Switched Rack PDU Installation and Quick-Start Manual

Install the Switched Rack PDU

Installation guidelines

• If the PDU is installed in an enclosed communications rack, the

 

recommended maximum ambient temperature should be no greater

 

than 45°C.

 

• Install the PDU so that there is air flow to the front and rear face of

 

the unit.

 

• Install the PDU so that there is not an uneven mechanical load.

 

• Follow the nameplate ratings when connecting equipment to the

 

supply circuit. Consider the effect that overloading the circuits

 

might have on over-circuit protection and supply wiring.

 

• Maintain reliable earthing of the PDU. Give particular

 

consideration to supply connections that do not directly connect to

 

the branch circuit.

 

• The PDU does not provide overcurrent protection. Connect the

 

PDU to an appropriately rated branch circuit.

 

• Install the PDU so that the power plug may be disconnected for

 

service.

Attach the cord

Attach the cord retention tray to the Switched Rack PDU, using the four

retention tray

flat-head screws (provided).

How to attach cords to the tray

Attach the cord to the tray by looping the cord and securing it to the tray, using a wire tie.

The cord must be secured to the tray so that you can unplug it from the PDU without removing the wire tie.
