Typically, this equipment is mounted in IT cabinets within the facility due to its size. However, the compact footprint and high current drain of the IT equipment complicate the installation, especially when the distribution of DC power to each device is provided by a rack-mounted power distribution unit. Alpha® Z-PDU series of Zero RU 48VDC power distribution unit solves this problem by delivering DC power distribution without occupying valuable rack space in the IT cabinet.

Alpha® Z-PDU series provides up to twenty (20) secondary circuits on a 125A (100A continuous) unit. Each circuit can deliver up to 40A. The unit can be installed in the rear of almost any cabinet providing network installers with easier access to secondary circuits. And connectorized outputs significantly improve the ease of installing network gear. The Z-PDU features the ability to monitor total PDU current, bus voltage, and main breaker trip signals through use of Cordex® HP L-ADIO peripheral connected to a centralized Cordex® HP system controller.
