Frequently Asked Questions
What is a metered rPDU and why do I need one?
A metered rPDU provides real-time visibility into power consumption at the outlet or circuit level. This enables data center managers to optimize energy usage, prevent overloads, allocate costs accurately, and make informed capacity planning decisions. The Vertiv PowerIT I10497 combines metering with upgradeable functionality for long-term scalability.
Can the Vertiv PowerIT I10497 be upgraded after installation?
Yes. The upgradeable design allows you to add or enhance monitoring modules without shutting down connected equipment. This flexibility ensures your power distribution infrastructure can adapt to changing business requirements and new monitoring technologies.
How many devices can connect to the 36 combination outlets?
The 36 C13/C19 combination outlets support a mix of standard servers (C13) and high-power equipment (C19). Actual device count depends on individual power requirements, but the 8.6kW capacity and 30A input ensure robust power delivery for typical rack configurations with multiple servers and network equipment.
Is the Vertiv PowerIT I10497 suitable for three-phase power environments?
Absolutely. The 208V DELTA three-phase configuration is ideal for professional data centers and enterprise IT environments where three-phase power is standard. This ensures efficient power distribution and balanced load across phases.
