What is an Power Distribution Unit (PDU)?

What are Smart or Intelligent PDU's;
In the world of PDUS, there are essentially two types: Basic PDUS and Smart /Intelligent PDUS. The

The Smart/Intelligent label can sometimes generate confusion because it's not a term that corresponds to a singular qualifying product feature. There are a collection of advanced features that when available in a PDU model, make that model smart.

It's important to understand that it's not about having a smart PDU with all the advanced features currently available. It's about establishing what your power management needs are. And going from there. The industry has essentially scripted what are the most common power optimization scenarios, and thus have created a set of Smart PDU sub categories that each address an appropriate scenario.

Smart PDUS are broken down into 4 distinct sub categories:

  1. Metered Inlet PDUS
  2. Metered Outlet PDUS
  3. Switched PDUS
  4. Switched PDUS with Outlet Metering
