What are ePDUs?



Defining a ePDU

  • Enclosure based Power Distribution Units (ePDU)
  • Smart Power Management
  • Designed specifically for data center IT environments
  • Rack mount industrial grade
  • Provide manageability and customizable enclosure control
  • Multiple configurations bring forth an impressive array of features and functions
  • Domestic and international configurations.
  • Products are designed to meet global safety standards
  • Certified and Agency approved systems
  • Mission Critical 24/7/365 reliability
With today's changing technology and the data centers 99.99% demand for reliability. IT professionals need sophisticated equipment to measure power consumption at the data center level, as well as the sever level to understand and control what is happening within their infrastructure. Mission Critical reliability can only be as good as the weakest link in the power chain.


Broad Product Portfolio

Eaton offers the largest selection of enclosure based power distribution units available on the market. This complete suite of power products is designed specifically to help data center IT managers meet their rapidly escalating power requirements. Eaton is making the selection of enclosure power distribution units easy with three simple questions:
  1. How much power do you need?
    We have power solutions from 1.44 Kilowatts to 23+ Kilowatts

  2. What functionality do you need?
    We offer a broad range of functionalities including basic, metered, monitored, switched and managed products

  3. Which inputs and outputs do you need?
    ePDUs are highly configurable, allowing any outlet or plug configuration including single phase, three phase, NEMA and IEC - all on the same ePDU.


24/7 reliability through Circuit Breakers or Individual Outlet Fusing

EATON ePDUs use individual branch rated circuit breakers that protect load segments (outlet groups), ensuring that an overloaded circuit does not affect other load segments, therfore increasing reliability. Circuit breakers have flat rockers or are fully shrouded to prevent accidental on/off operation.

Eaton ePDUs give the option of circuit breaker or individual outlet fusing, giving you options for branch circuit protection or for outlets to be individually protected.


High Density Power Solutions

Do you have power hungry racks of IT equipment, such as blade servers and switches? Are you running out of power capacity before rack space in your enclosure? Everyday higher levels of performance are expected without sacrificing reliability. Eaton offers a full line of high power density solutions to meet your needs. We offer both rackmount and vertical mount three-phase ePDU's ranging from 50 amp, 60 amp and even 80 amp input capacities. These sophisticated units allow an entire rack of equipment to be powered from a single power cord input. Whether you need it cord connected, or hard wired, ePDU has you covered.


Rugged Design for Optimal Performance and Quick Installation

EATON ePDUs are designed to meet global safety standards. These units are engineered with rugged construction, have flexible mounting options, and multiple features ensuring the highest quality and customer satisfaction. Eaton, engineering unique solutions for the most power intense environments.
