It's an 8-outlet vertical power distribution unit for AV and IT racks that need side-mounted outlet capacity without consuming horizontal rack units.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVertical, 0U-mount PDUs solve a common rack-space problem: every horizontal rack unit used for power distribution is a unit not available for AV or IT gear. The SX-VS-128 mounts vertically along the side of the rack, carrying a 12A\/5-15P plug feeding 8 individually switchable 5-15R outlets on a 9-foot (2.75m) cord. Remote turn on\/off, power cycling, and sequencing let a technician manage connected equipment from a network dashboard rather than physically accessing the rack. Advanced scheduling, AutoPing device checks, and threshold-triggered events automate routine resets and alerts, eliminating the need for costly and time-consuming onsite service calls for issues that a remote power cycle can resolve. Remote power management and analytics give facilities visibility into per-outlet current draw, and seamless integration with third-party control systems plus SurgeX CONNECT compatibility means the unit reports into an existing control platform rather than requiring its own dedicated interface. For AV integrators building racks with tight horizontal space — broadcast racks, control rooms, and multi-rack deployments — the SX-VS-128 provides IP-controlled outlet switching without consuming rack units that could otherwise hold equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8 Outlet Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e — Individually switchable 5-15R outlets on a vertical, 0U-mount PDU.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndividually Switchable Receptacles\u003c\/strong\u003e — Cycle or schedule each outlet independently for targeted device control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRemote Turn On\/Off, Power Cycling, and Sequencing\u003c\/strong\u003e — Manage connected equipment without a site visit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdvanced Scheduling, AutoPing, and Threshold-Triggered Events\u003c\/strong\u003e — Reduces onsite service calls for issues remote power cycling can resolve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRemote Power Management and Analytics\u003c\/strong\u003e — Per-outlet visibility into current draw.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThird-Party and SurgeX CONNECT Integration\u003c\/strong\u003e — Reports into existing control systems and SurgeX's cloud platform.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommercial meeting space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBroadcast studio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuditorium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable style=\"table-layout:fixed;width:100%;min-width:280px;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:45%\"\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:55%\"\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSX-VS-128\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVertical, 0U rack-side mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlug Configuration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12A \/ 5-15P\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutlet Configuration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 Outlets \/ 5-15R\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCord Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9ft (2.75m)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP-controlled; SurgeX CONNECT and third-party integration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat control systems is the SX-VS-128 compatible with?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt integrates with SurgeX CONNECT and standard third-party control systems, so it can report into an existing rack or room controller.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the SX-VS-128 mounted?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt mounts vertically along the side of the rack (0U), preserving horizontal rack space for AV and IT equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan outlets be scheduled or automated?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
