Understanding U Space, and Why It’s Important
Rack Power
June 16, 2025Data center racks are measured in rack units (RU), commonly abbreviated to U. One U measures 1.75 inches and is used to define the amount of vertical space available in a rack. Knowing what U stands for is critical for data center planning because it standardizes rack and gear height with a uniform measure.

Server Technology PRO4X Rack PDUs Ace Third-Party VAPT Security Testing
Rack Power
April 17, 2025Cybercriminals relentlessly target data centers to steal personal data or shut down and disrupt vital networks. According to a recent analysis by PwC, mega breaches are increasing in number and scale: the proportion of businesses that have experienced a data breach exceeding US $1 million has increased significantly year over year, from 27% to 36%. That’s why every inch of a data center’s infrastructure must be rigorously prepared to withstand cyberattacks.

Xerus Upgrade Brings IPv6 Compliance to Server Technology PRO3X and PRO4X Rack PDUs
Rack Power
February 24, 2025The U.S. government has established September 30, 2025, as the deadline for transitioning 80% of the systems used by federal agencies and contractors from IPv4 to IPv6-only networks. Although this date may seem distant, it is vital to start planning now, especially since complex integrations and upgrades will be required. Fortunately, you won’t need to worry whether Server Technology Rack PDUs will be compatible with IPv6. Server Technology PRO3X and PRO4X Rack PDUs now carry two important certifications: IPv6 Ready Gold Logo and USGv6-r1 certification.
