Eaton PDUMH20HVNET – Switched 1U PDU, 200-240V 20A

Product Overview

The Eaton PDUMH20HVNET is a single-phase switched PDU that gives data center and server room operators advanced remote control over 8 C13 outlets on a 200-240V, 20A circuit. This 1U horizontal rack PDU can turn on, turn off, recycle, or lock out power to each individual outlet, monitor site electrical conditions, and report output power consumption remotely. Its built-in LX Platform network interface makes it a strong fit for managed data centers running remote reboot and load monitoring workflows.

Product Description

Individually switched outlets on the PDUMH20HVNET can be controlled in real time to remotely reboot unresponsive network hardware, or custom programmed for user-defined power-up and power-down sequences that ensure proper startup of interdependent IT systems and prevent inrush-related overloads as equipment is first energized. Unused outlets can be electronically locked off to prevent the connection of unauthorized hardware, a useful control in shared or colocation environments. PDU output current consumption in amps is continuously displayed locally via a visual meter, and remotely via the web/network interface, providing an early warning of potential overloads before critical IT mains or branch breakers trip. The built-in LX Platform network management interface card provides a Java-free, HTML5-based interface for full remote access, supporting PDU status monitoring and email notifications via secure web browser, SNMP, telnet, or SSH. It supports 10/100 Mbps auto-sensing for optimum communication with an Ethernet network, and protocols supported include HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, SNMPv1, SNMPv2, SNMPv3, telnet, SSH, FTP, DHCP, and NTP. Optional EnviroSense2 modules, sold separately, provide a variety of environmental monitoring capabilities for racks that also need temperature and humidity visibility. With eight C13 outlets fed from an L6-20P input, this 1U horizontal rack PDU is designed for data centers running 208/240V equipment that need individual outlet-level control and remote monitoring.

Key Features

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I reboot a single unresponsive server outlet without powering down the whole rack?

Yes. Each of the eight C13 outlets can be switched independently, so you can remotely recycle power to a single unresponsive device without affecting the others.

How does the PDU help prevent inrush-related overloads on startup?

It supports user-programmable outlet startup sequencing, allowing you to define the order and interval in which outlets power on so interdependent systems start correctly and avoid a simultaneous inrush current spike.

Can unused outlets be secured against unauthorized equipment?

Yes. Unused outlets can be electronically locked off, preventing connection of unauthorized hardware to those ports.

What network protocols does the built-in interface support?

The interface supports HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, SNMPv1, SNMPv2, SNMPv3, telnet, SSH, FTP, DHCP, and NTP for integration with common data center monitoring tools.

Does this PDU support environmental monitoring out of the box?

Not by default, but the optional EnviroSense2 module, sold separately, adds environmental monitoring capability to this unit.

What warranty does Eaton provide on this unit?

Eaton backs this unit with its standard manufacturer warranty; contact Creation Networks for the current term and any extended coverage options.
