APC by Schneider Electric Metered-by-Outlet with Switching Rack PDU

Elevate your data center energy management with the APC Metered-by-Outlet with Switching Rack PDU. Designed to deliver precise power control and real-time consumption visibility, this advanced Rack PDU puts you in charge of energy efficiency, device uptime, and outlet-level reliability. Whether you’re expanding a growing server room or optimizing a high-density data center, this metered-by-outlet PDU provides the granular insight and flexible control you need to reduce waste, streamline reboot processes, and align power usage with your IT priorities. With robust protection, scalable outlet configurations, and a secure management interface, it’s a trusted solution from a leader in data center infrastructure.

  • Per-outlet metering for precise energy visibility. Each outlet reports real-time power consumption, enabling accurate tracking of which devices draw the most energy and supporting smarter budgeting and capacity planning.
  • Outlet-level switching for targeted control. Reboot or cycle individual outlets without affecting other devices on the same rack, improving uptime and reducing the need for manual power cycling at the device level.
  • Flexible rack integration. Designed to fit standard IT racks with a compact form factor, the PDU supports common configurations and mounting options that optimize space, cable management, and airflow in dense deployments.
  • Secure remote management and monitoring. Access energy data and control functionality through a secure interface (local display, web UI, or network management protocols), enabling proactive monitoring, threshold alerts, and centralized control across multiple PDUs.
  • Robust protection for critical equipment. Built to withstand demanding data center environments, featuring reliable surge protection, overload prevention, and durable construction to protect valuable IT assets over the long term.

How to install APC by Schneider Electric Metered-by-Outlet with Switching Rack PDU

Follow these steps to install the Metered-by-Outlet with Switching Rack PDU and begin leveraging outlet-level control and real-time energy data. Plan your rack layout first, ensuring adequate clearance for cooling and cable management. Prepare the rack rails and mounting hardware appropriate for your enclosure before beginning installation.

Step 1: Mount the PDU in the rack. Align the PDU with the rack rails and secure it using the provided hardware. Ensure the unit sits level and that mounting points are tightened to avoid vibration or shifting during operation.

Step 2: Connect the input power. Attach the PDU’s input power cord to a properly rated power source that matches the PDU’s electrical specifications. Verify that the supply circuit can handle the anticipated load and enable any protective devices required by your data center’s electrical standards.

Step 3: Prepare the outlet layout. Group outlets by device function or by service level to simplify management. Label each outlet clearly to reflect its purpose, which will ease troubleshooting and power cycling during routine maintenance or incident response.

Step 4: Connect IT devices. Plug servers, storage, network gear, and other equipment into individual outlets as planned. Avoid daisy-chaining power strips from the PDU outlets to maintain accurate metering and reliable protection for critical devices.

Step 5: Configure energy monitoring and access controls. Use the PDU’s local display or web-based management interface to enable per-outlet metering, set alert thresholds for power usage, and define responsible management roles. If you manage multiple PDUs, consider integrating them into a centralized monitoring system for consolidated visibility.

Step 6: Set power policies and schedules. Create outlet groups, define on/off schedules, and implement automatic reboot sequences for planned maintenance windows or to recover from transient issues. Tailor these policies to your operational needs while keeping a safety margin to avoid unintended shutdowns of critical services.

Step 7: Verify operation. Check that each outlet reports accurate energy data, that switching works as expected, and that alerts fire correctly when thresholds are exceeded. Confirm that connected devices come online with the correct power sequencing and that cable routing remains clean and unobstructed for optimal airflow.

Step 8: Document and secure. Record the outlet map, access credentials, and management configurations in your data center documentation. Maintain a routine review process for firmware updates, security patches, and configuration changes to protect against evolving threats and keep performance optimal.

Overall, this APC Metered-by-Outlet with Switching Rack PDU delivers a scalable, secure, and energy-aware foundation for modern data centers. Its combination of real-time metering, precise outlet control, and robust management features helps IT teams optimize performance, reduce energy costs, and improve reliability across all critical devices in the rack.

Q-tips-an all around great thing to have
Size: 500 Count (Pack of 2)
Q-tip brand Q-tips are very soft, thick, easy to use and a good value for the money. I use them with my business as a skin care professional. They’re extremely versatile.The smaller size is perfect for skin care of the eye, or ears for example. At home, I use them to clean my jewelry, to apply makeup, plus several other uses. They are gentle, strong and safe.

Slider box makes me SOOO happy!
Size: 500 Count (Pack of 2), Size: 500 Count (Pack of 2)
I have not been able to find Q-Tips in the Slider box for several years! My old box I have been reusing was ready to be replaced. You may not think it's a big deal, but when you have limited options in the bathroom and they need to stand up on the side this is the perfect box. In fact, just about every bathroom I have had required me to stand up the box. Everyone knows how great Q-Tips themselves are so that’s why I focused on my delight that I found the slider box again! And as a bonus it is cheaper than buying locally!!
