Eaton PDUMVR20NETLX – Switched PDU, 24-Outlet, LX

Product Overview

The Eaton PDUMVR20NETLX is a 1.9kW single-phase switched PDU with individual outlet metering, built for data centers and server rooms that need remote power control down to the outlet level. This 0U rack-mount PDU provides 24 individually controllable NEMA 5-15/20R outlets and a built-in LX network interface, letting IT teams turn outlets on, off, or reboot them remotely. It is a strong fit for network closets and server racks looking to reduce on-site truck rolls for routine power troubleshooting.

Product Description

The PDUMVR20NETLX gives facilities and IT staff granular, remote control over rack power without requiring a physical visit to the equipment. Its 24 individually controllable NEMA 5-15/20R outlets each support on, off, and reboot commands, so a hung device can be power-cycled from a laptop instead of a data center walk-through. Cord retention brackets at each outlet help prevent accidental disconnection in racks where cables are frequently handled. The unit connects to an AC source, generator, or protected UPS through a 10-foot power cord terminating in a NEMA L5-20P plug, with an optional 5-20P adapter included for standard receptacles. At its core is the built-in, Java-free HTML5-based LX Platform network interface, which supports full remote access for status monitoring and email notifications over a secure web browser, SNMP, telnet, or SSH, and includes 10/100 Mbps auto-sensing Ethernet connectivity. Supported protocols include IPv4, IPv6, HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, SNMPv1/v2/v3, telnet, SSH, FTP, DHCP, and NTP, giving network teams flexibility in how they integrate the PDU into existing monitoring systems. A digital ammeter reports current draw at the load-bank, outlet, and total-PDU level in real time, helping administrators keep loads well under capacity. Optional EnviroSense2 modules (sold separately) add environmental monitoring capability for temperature and humidity in the rack. The PDU mounts in 0U of rack space using toolless mounting buttons or the included brackets, preserving usable rack unit space for servers and switches in EIA-standard 19-inch racks.
