Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the 30A rating and 24A derate on this rack PDU?
The Raritan PX3-5958V is rated at 30A maximum but derated to 24A for continuous operation. This conservative derate ensures optimal thermal management, extends equipment lifespan, and maintains compliance with electrical safety standards in high-density rack environments.
How many servers can I connect to the 36-outlet PDU?
The number of devices depends on individual power consumption. With 36 outlets and a 24A continuous capacity (approximately 5kW at 208V), you can typically support 12-18 standard 1U servers or a mix of servers, storage, and networking equipment. Use the power monitoring features to optimize load distribution.
Is this three-phase PDU suitable for small data centers?
Yes. The PX3-5958V's 3-phase 208V design is ideal for small to mid-size data centers, edge computing facilities, and enterprise server rooms where three-phase power infrastructure is available. Its 36 outlets and flexible capacity make it perfect for growing IT environments.
What monitoring and management features does the PX3-5958V provide?
This rack power distribution unit includes real-time power metering, outlet-level monitoring, remote management capabilities, and integration with data center infrastructure management (DCIM) platforms for comprehensive visibility into power consumption and equipment health.
