iNC Network Controller Module – Vertical PDU’s (MA002)
The iNC Network Controller Module is a hot-swappable network management card that works with the Panduit
SmartZone G5 iPDU series of intelligent power distribution units. It is the “brain” of the PDU that contains the most
complicated and sensitive electronic sub-systems. It is designed for safe removal without disrupting the PDU
hardware operation.
Note: The iNC Network Control Modules are designed to connect to a SmartZone G5 iPDU only. Connecting it to
another device may result in damage.
