Safety Precauons
To avoid potenal problems when using PDU:
● If the building has 3-phase AC power, ensure that the server
and monitor are on the same phase. For best results, they
should be on the same circuit.
● To avoid potenally fatal shock hazard and possible damage
to equipment, test AC outlets at the server and monitor for
proper polarity and grounding.
● To ensure the safety of network communicaon, it is
recommended that the PDU be installed in a network firewall
to prevent malicious aacks by hackers, which will affect the
safety of power consumpon.
Safety instrucons
Read all the following safety guidelines to protect yourself and
your PDU.
WARNING: All outlets of the PDU output high voltage. Necessary
precauons should be taken.
WARNING: Do not push any objects through the openings of the
PDU. Doing so may cause fire or electric shock by
shorng out interior components.
WARNING: There is a possibility of severe electrical shock from
either the live or neutral side of any of the power
outlets or their wiring, even if one of the circuit

3
breakers is disabled.
WARNING: The PDU is intended for indoor use only.
WARNING: To help protect the PDU from electrical power
fluctuaons, use a surge suppressor, line condioner
or uninterrupble power supply.
WARNING: Be sure that nothing rests on the cables of the PDU
and that it is not located where it may be stepped on
or tripped over.
WARNING: Do not spill food or liquids on the PDU. If it gets wet,
disconnect the power immediately.
WARNING: Keep the PDU away from heat sources.
WARNING: One output can only be connected to a single device.
Do not use extension cords to power mulple devices,
so as not to damage the output relay due to the
accumulaon of inrush currents from mulple devices.
Rack mount safety consideraons
When installing the PDU, make sure the following environmental
specificaons are met:
Elevated Operang Ambient Temperature: If the PDU is installed
in a closed or mul-unit rack assembly, the operang ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room
ambient temperature. Therefore, consideraon should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment compable with the
manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature. See above.

4
Reduced Air Flow: Installaon of the equipment in a rack should
be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operaon of
the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading: Mounng of the equipment in the rack
should be such that a hazardous condion is not created due to
uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading: Consideraon should be given to the
connecon of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect
that overloading of circuits might have on over current protecon
and supply wiring. Appropriate consideraon of equipment
nameplate rangs should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Grounding: Reliable grounding of rack-mounted
equipment should be maintained.
Parcular aenon should be given to supply connecons other
than direct connecons to the branch circuit, such as power strips
or extension cords.

Features and Benefits
The PDU is an Internet-ready power strip equipped with an
intelligent current meter to indicate the total power consumpon
of the Power Distribuon Unit (PDU). Each PDU includes PDU
Ulity soware to monitor and manage mulple PDUs.
Funcons Descripon
Ethernet Ethernet connecon for the built-in
web server.
Audible Alarm Holes for audible alarm.
Warning- 1 beep in 1 second.
Overload- 3 beeps in 1 second.
Note: The audible alarm will keep
beeping unl the current gets back to
normal and the current is lower than
the threshold to 0.5 amps.

Alarms and monitoring
The PDU delivers accurate, real-me global current monitoring of
all connected devices via the onboard web interface or through
the PDU Ulity soware. Users have the ability to set a current
alarm threshold that, once exceeded, will cause the PDU to sound
an alarm or send a noficaon message, or both.
Sequenal power applicaon
The PDU incorporates a sequenal power applicaon feature that
prevents all power outlet receptacles from turning on at once,
eliminang the potenal of current surges that could render the
equipment inoperable. Together with the global current
monitoring, the sequenal power applicaon feature lets users
safely install more equipment on exisng power circuits without
the worry of current overloads.
