Smart Power Monitors Add Intelligent Power Monitoring to Any Existing Server Cabinet 

'Smart Power Monitors' add input current load, power, and environmental monitoring to any existing server cabinet via an integral web based interface or through a serial connection.  Data center server racks currently using non-intelligent Cabinet Power Distribution Units (PDUs) can now be retrofitted with a Smart PDU, providing the user network access to view power, temperature and humidity levels, and receive SNMP-based alarms or email alerts when conditions exceed defined thresholds.  The Smart Power Monitors have dual power inputs for redundancy and dual outputs to support two PDU in-feeds.

Upgrading a server rack with a Smart Power Monitor will allow the user to determine if there is enough available power to add additional devices to the cabinet without overloading a circuit and bringing down an in-feed.  Knowing the power draw (in Amps), using Digital True RMS current monitoring for greater accuracy, will also ensure each PDU is properly loaded for redundancy in the event that one of the two input feeds is lost.

This product is also perfect for large storage solutions like SANs where it can added to existing installations to determine the power draw of these systems.  (view success story)

The Smart Power Monitors are available in a variety of configurations.  To view all the types, please visit Smart Power Monitors.  The horizontal enclosure is 1U for all configurations, and typically mounts on the back or bottom of a 19 or 23 inch rack.
