Product Description
Monitored eConnect® PDUs provide remote power monitoring to the input and branch circuit level, making it possible to obtain and manage power consumption at the cabinet level.
Key Features and Benefits
- Reduced Networking Costs and Complexity – Secure Array® allows the use of a single IP address for up to 48 connected PDUs (32 when electronic locks are integrated). Second IP address for the entire array provides failover capability.
- Resistance to High Temperature – Marketleading temperature ratings of up to 149°F (65°C) ensures reliability when mounted toward hot aisles.
- Simplified Load Balancing – Phase-balance outlets on three-phase models ensure equal loading across all phases; allows use of shorter equipment power cords for better cable and airflow management.
- No Accidental Disconnections – Patented, low-profile locking outlets prevent accidental disconnections without requiring special cords
- Easy Identification of Failover Unit – Redundancy Pack includes 2 PDUs (one in Black and one in Glacier White) for easy identification of the primary and secondary unit.
- Electronic Lock Integration – Patented technology seamlessly integrates PDU, environmental sensors and electronic locks into a single hardware and software solution
- Gigabit Ethernet – Ensures compatibility with enterprise routers and switches.
- Latest UL Compliance – Meets UL and IEC 62368 for compliance with new listing requirements for North America and the European Union.
- Cabinet Preinstallation – Complete ecosystem ships ready for IT equipment integration, and saves deployment time and reduces packaging waste.
- High Power Configurations – Configurations supporting up to 100A Input provide an optimized solution for GPU & AI based applications. 30A branch circuit breakers provide flexibility when plugging high power IT equipment.
Product Information
Advanced Remote Monitoring and Load Balancing
The monitored eConnect® PDU EA-3016-C provides a rugged, 8.6 kW power platform designed for high‑density data‑center cabinets. Its vertical, 42U‑compatible form factor fits seamlessly into standard enclosures while delivering phase‑balanced outlets for even load distribution. Built with Secure Array® IP consolidation, the unit supports a single IP address for up to 48 PDUs, simplifying network architecture. Remote power monitoring is enabled through an onboard GUI, SNMPv3, and a RESTful API, giving administrators real‑time insight into input and branch‑circuit consumption. Integration with LDAP or RADIUS ensures secure authentication, while the HTTPS interface protects data in transit. The EA‑3016‑C also supports environmental sensor and electronic lock integration, preparing the rack for future expansion. Temperature resilience is a hallmark of this model; the enclosure tolerates up to 149 degreesF (65 degreesC), making it suitable for hot‑aisle deployments and edge data‑center environments. A high‑precision meter delivers +/-1 % accuracy, enabling precise capacity planning for GPU‑intensive workloads and AI applications. The unit's tool‑less mounting reduces installation time and minimizes cable strain. Phase‑balance locking outlets eliminate accidental disconnections and allow shorter power cords, improving airflow and reducing cable clutter. The redundant design includes a paired PDU in a contrasting color for rapid identification of primary and secondary units during maintenance. Each outlet is lockable, meeting stringent security requirements for regulated industries. Overall, the EA‑3016‑C combines robust power delivery, comprehensive monitoring, and secure integration to support modern, high‑performance computing environments. Its compatibility with CPI's eConnect® management software streamlines deployment across multi‑tenant and hyperscale facilities.
