With today’s high power density applications, power management has become an integral part of the overall data center solution. At CPI, we’ve developed power management solutions to help you minimize cost while increasing efficiency. From power strips to our unique line of eConnect™ power distribution units (PDUs), CPI solutions live by the adage – knowledge is power.
How much it costs to power your data center lives in direct relation to how energy efficient your equipment is, how well you monitor your power output and usage, and how quickly you respond to downtime. At CPI, we deliver an all-encompassing power management solution set that offers you the ability to:
CPI also helps you integrate power management into a total data center solution, including Data Center infrastructure Efficiency (DCiE), Data Center energy Productivity (DCeP) and Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE). These help determine how efficiently power and thermal cooling is utilized in the data center, and are a main component to better power management. Not to mention, monitoring power usage can even help IT departments gauge power efficiency of specific equipment within the data center, thus aligning future product purchases with those network routers, switches and servers that perform best for your system.
Choose a CPI Basic eConnect PDU for reliable power distribution in high density applications when no local or remote power monitoring is required. Basic eConnect PDUs are rated for use in ambient air temperatures up to 65°C (149°F) and can be confidently deployed in cabinets with CPI Vertical Exhaust Ducts or in hot aisle containment applications.

Choose a CPI Monitored eConnect PDU when you need to measure power use for each rack or cabinet. Monitored eConnect PDUs provide continuous, automated voltage, current, power and power factor monitoring for each breaker on the PDU with ±1% metering accuracy for power measurements. Each PDU has a multi-functional local display, an Ethernet connection for remote monitoring, and an an external connection for two...
Choose the CPI Monitored Pro eConnect PDU when you need to know how much power each piece of equipment is using. Monitored Pro eConnect PDUs provide continuous, automated remote voltage, current, and power (kW) monitoring for each outlet on the PDU with ±1% metering accuracy for power measurements. You can also use the built-in web interface to group outlets and see combined current use for multiple outlets.
