4-fold switched PDU Expert Power Control, GUDE 8021-1

Expert Power Control 8021-1

4-fold switched PDU for increase in operational safety and energy efficiency in IT networks

The latest generation of Switched Power Distribution Units (PDUs) provides all the flexibility and convenience needed to manage devices in a 19-inch cabinet: Switching, metering, controlling & monitoring.

Expert Power Control 8021-1 enables switching and metering of electrical appliances through TCP/IP network, serial interface or mobile device app. The rear panel disposes of 4 load outlets IEC C13 (max. 10 A). These Power Ports are individually switchable through web interface, serial interface, SNMP or a button directly on the device. Moreover SNMPv3, SSL, IPv6, Telnet, Radius and Modbus TCP support are incorporated.

Expert Power Control 8021-1 disposes of two energy meters. Various electrical dimensions are measured on the supply line and enable users to identify and exploit power-saving potential in the their IT environment. In addition, responsibles receive warning messages when fault currents occur (residual current measurement type A). This allows preventive maintenance even before downtime.

Applications
• Switch and control servers and IT equipment in server rooms and data centers
• Switching network or media technology devices through media controls of well-known AV manufacturers (Atlona, ​​Barco, Crestron, Extron, Neets)
• Restart PCs, servers, routers, and switches remotely
• Reduce power consumption of standby devices through schedule control
• Network monitoring through integration with monitoring software (PRTG, Icinga, Nagios, Power IQ, Tivoli)
• Environmental monitoring by connected sensors (temperature, humidity and air pressure)

Locations
• Industrial environments: Production facilities, warehouses or workshops
• IT installations: Engineering rooms, data centers, 19 "cabinets or server rooms
• AV environments: huddle rooms, conference rooms, theaters, auditoriums, LED walls or digital signage systems

Features

• 4 Power Ports individually switchable directly on the device, via HTTP, command line tool and RS232 serial interface

• Status and power-up delay individually adjustable for each Power Port after power blackout (0...9999 seconds)

• Latency time of 1 second prevents simultaneous power-up of multiple Power Ports

• Programmable timetables and turn-on/turn-off sequences

• 2 energy meters per bank, one meter continuously, the other resettable

• Metering of energy, current, power factor, phase angle, frequency, voltage and active / apparent / reactive power

• Residual current metering (RCM) type A

• A clearly visible LED display per bank for total current, IP address, sensor data and error reports

• 4-channel watchdog, an individual watchdog (ICMP/TCP) can be assigned for each Power Port

• Integrated overvoltage protection (SPD) type 3 prevents damage of device and of connected consumers (L-N, L/N-PE), status retrievable over network

• Dedicated high-inrush relays avoid welding of relay contacts at start-up peaks

• 2 interfaces for optional sensors for environmental monitoring (temperature, humidity and air pressure)

• Event-based port switching possible by set sensor thresholds

• Internal beeper for acoustic alarm for set sensor thresholds

• Free Android App and iOS App Gude Control+ allows access from anywhere

• Low internal power consumption

• Developed and manufactured in Germany

Network

• Dynamic IP address allocation by DHCP or manual allocation with static IP address

• IPv6-ready

• Firmware update over Ethernet during operations (without reboot of device or load outlets)

• NTP function can be activated

• SNMPv1, v2c, v3 (Get/Traps)

• TLS 1.0, 1.1, 1.2

• Syslog support

• IP Access Control List

• Secure login through SSL

• Configuration and control via Telnet possible

• Radius and Modbus TCP support

• Comfortable configuration by web browser, Windows or Linux tool

• 10/100 Mbit/s
