Bee the PowerKeeper with ATEN

Just as beehives foster a bustling ecosystem, data centers have evolved into super-PC hives that power the digital world. Any advancement in data center PUE can be a pivotal step towards realizing net-zero GHG emissions by 2050. Let's draw inspiration from beekeeping practices to ensure sustainable powerkeeping for a more promising future!

Re-imagine Data Centers with Smarter Energy Management

The growing demand for contactless services and remote work is a significant paradigm-shift event that has catalyzed the digitalization of businesses in the new normal. The soaring penetration of cloud computing has brought about the extension of on-premises infrastructures in data centers, which requires the integration of smart power distribution and efficient Data Center Infrastructure Management to retrofit data center operations. In response to the emerging energy crisis, more power, agile adaptability and higher density in server racks are essential to the future of data centers.

Future-Proof, Never Settle for Less

Each PG series eco PDU, equipped with an ARM Cortex-A8 processor, features up to 30 port outlets capable of running at higher voltages, powers up all connected equipment in less than 10 seconds once plugged in, and delivers the most accurate kWh energy usage data (+/-1%) for better power consumption habits, baselines, and initiative tracking. With energy saving in mind, the PG series eco PDUs are purposed to enable lower energy consumption for best practices in a network infrastructure, while promoting up to 70.65 kg (131.4 kWh equivalent of power consumption) of reduced CO2 emission, reduced electricity expenses, and lower carbon taxes to pay each year.

Optimum Metering Precision

All connected equipment can be powered up in less than 10 seconds once plugged in, and each PDU is measured with the most accurate kWh energy usage data (+/-1%).

Space-Efficient Installation

The 56 mm-width thin form factor design allows 0U rack mountable space to accommodate up to 2 PDUs for space-efficient installation.

Color-Coded Differentiation

The PG series eco PDUs feature a colored LCD console panel with options of red, yellow, purple, blue, and green for easily differentiable power feed settings.

Product Features at a Glance

Energy-Saving Relay

The built-in energy-saving relays – a subtype of electromagnetic switch – makes controlling a large amount of current flow easy, saving up to 131.4 kWh power consumption per year. Thus, power distribution remains functional and uninterruptible, enabling reliable system uptime.

Secure Locking Enhancement

The outlets can be protected with a secure lock to prevent power cords from becoming unplugged due to vibration or human errors.

Quick Configuration Pushbuttons

The pushbuttons are intended for quick device configuration and troubleshooting on site, as well as prompt monitoring of metering at each phase, bank, and outlet.

Hot-Swappable LCD Console Panel

The LCD console panel is hot-swappable and can be removed, replaced, or repaired without powering down a mission-critical connected load.

Dual LAN Ports for Scalable Network Setup

The equipped dual LAN ports are capable of 1G and 100mb network transmission, and can be connected to two different networks simultaneously: Internet and Intranet.

Environment Sensors

The Sensor port enables RJ-45 connectivity to daisy-chain up to 8 environment sensors for monitoring and management of temperature, humidity, airflow, differential air pressure, and leaks, and features alerts for potential threats.

Flexible On-Site Network Operation

This port enables connection to a serial device as a COM port for timely local site operation, as well as connection to a KN series KVM over IP Switch as a PON port to allow centralized power management of up to 16 daisy-chained PDUs.

* Note: This feature is to be included in a future firmware release.

Networkable via WiFi

Each PDU can be networked via connection to a USB WiFi dongle to perform DCIM, firmware upgrade, log export, quick configuration, and more.

Hydraulic-Magnetic Circuit Breaker

With the built-in hydraulic-magnetic circuit breaker in place, electricity supply can be automatically switched off to protect connected devices from becoming overloaded or damaged, while maintaining stable power distribution.

56mm Slim Form Factor

2 PDU units can be installed in a 0U rack housing to incorporate more IT equipment (2x 30 outlets) in a high-density server rack, accommodating space-efficient rack installation.

Network Resilience

Cascading via LAN Ports

With network port redundancy, up to 64 PDUs can be cascaded via LAN ports, saving considerably on the expense for extra network switches while sparing rack space to incorporate more IT equipment in high-density server racks in an expandable network.

Daisy-chaining via Sensor Port

With the Sensor port in place, up to 8 sensors can be daisy-chained for environmental monitoring of temperature, humidity, differential air pressure, water leaks, and intrusion, featuring alerts for potential threats.
