Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cabinet distribution unit used for?
A cabinet distribution unit (PDU) distributes power from a single input source to multiple outlets within server cabinets and network enclosures. The Raritan PX3-1813R provides metered power management, allowing IT teams to monitor consumption, control outlets remotely, and prevent overload conditions in data center environments.
How many devices can the PX3-1813R power?
The 8-outlet configuration supports multiple devices simultaneously, with total capacity of 3.4kVA at 230V 16A. Actual device count depends on individual power requirements—typical deployments support 4-8 network switches, servers, or storage devices per unit.
Does the Raritan PX3-1813R include remote monitoring?
Yes, the metered power monitoring capability enables real-time tracking of outlet-level power consumption. This allows administrators to identify power distribution imbalances, optimize resource allocation, and implement predictive maintenance strategies across cabinet infrastructure.
Is the PX3-1813R suitable for European data centers?
Absolutely. The 230V single-phase design is standard for European electrical infrastructure, making this cabinet distribution unit ideal for EU-based facilities, branch offices, and international deployments requiring localized power distribution solutions.
