Integrated Remote Power Management and Distribution for Use in
Branch and Remote Offices
Cyclades® PM intelligent power distribution units (IPDUs) enable remote power control and
system management of IT assets in branch and remote offices. When used in conjunction with
Cyclades ACS advanced console servers and DSR® switch appliances, Cyclades PM IPDUs offer
quick problem resolution through an integrated management interface. With one or more
outlets positively associated with a particular device, users may control power “in line”
through a user-defined “hot key” or by using an intuitive Web browser-based GUI. In addition,
a special command set facilitates scripting.
Cyclades PM IPDUs — NEMA Models
Cyclades PM NEMA models are equipped with 5-15R power outlets and fixed power cables.
These units are available in 15A, 20A and 30A capacities with optional twist-lock input plugs.
Each model includes two RS-232 ports: one for management and the second for daisy-chain
expansion. Daisy chaining allows an operator to control up to 128 power outlets as a single
device. Cyclades NEMA IPDUs are designed to operate in 100-125 VAC environments.
An LED display shows the real time, true RMS current draw. Each PM unit may be configured
to sound an alarm during an overcurrent condition, and if it is connected to a Cyclades ACS
console server, the IPDU may also send notifications via e-mail messages, Short Message
Service (SMS) pager messages and SNMP traps.
