Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between IEC 60320 C13 and C19 outlets?
IEC 60320 C13 outlets are standard connectors for most IT equipment like servers and switches, supporting up to 16A. IEC 60320 C19 outlets are heavy-duty connectors designed for high-power devices requiring up to 20A, making them ideal for blade servers and power-hungry appliances. The Raritan PX3 PDU includes both types to accommodate diverse equipment in your data center.
How does an intelligent PDU improve data center efficiency?
An intelligent PDU like the Raritan PX3 provides real-time power monitoring at the outlet level, allowing you to identify power-hungry devices, eliminate phantom loads, and optimize capacity utilization. Advanced scheduling and remote outlet control enable automated power management, reducing energy costs and improving overall data center efficiency.
Can the Raritan PX3 PDU integrate with existing data center management systems?
Yes, the Raritan PX3 features network-based management capabilities that integrate seamlessly with leading data center infrastructure management (DCIM) platforms. This enables centralized monitoring, alerting, and control across your entire power distribution infrastructure from a single dashboard.
What does 0U rack-mountable mean for a PDU?
0U means the PDU occupies no vertical rack space, mounting horizontally at the top or bottom of your cabinet. This space-saving design allows you to maximize usable rack units for servers and other equipment while still providing comprehensive power distribution and monitoring.
