PM2000 and PM3000 Intelligent Power Distribution Units
Quick Facts
ƒ Measure and monitor power
consumption per outlet
PM2000 & PM3000 intelligent Power Distribution units (IPDUs) support outlet level metering and
switching capability to provide datacenter professionals the tools they need to monitor, measure, reduce,
and manage their growing power consumption costs of IT equipment. Thresholds can be created to
allow datacenter teams to know before problems occur and minimize downtime caused by overloaded
circuits. With the ability to support up to 22 kW and support for C19 outlets, the PM2000 and PM3000
IPDUs are well positioned to support the high rack density found in organizations today.
ƒ Create thresholds and alerts
ƒ Remote switching capability to
power on/off outlets (PM3000
models)
Measure power at the Outlet level
ƒ Designed to work with other
Avocent products for an integrated
solution
Outlet level metering and switching capability provides datacenter professionals the tools they need to
monitor, measure, reduce and chargeback their growing power consumption costs of IT equipment while
minimizing any downtime that could potentially be caused by overloaded circuits or hung up IT equipment.
ƒ Manage with DSView 3 Power
Manager for historical reporting
Metering/Switching capabilities
Capture valuable information and control power to individual devices
• Metering per outlet with the PM2000 IPDUs
• Metering and switching per outlet with PM3000 IPDUs
Avocent can help you answer
questions like-
ƒ Do you know how much power each
piece of equipment is consuming?
ƒ Do you have the capability to cycle
the power to your local and remote
servers?
Alarms and monitoring
The Avocent PM2000 and PM3000 IPDUs deliver accurate, real-time current monitoring of all
connected devices via the web manager, DSView® 3 software or locally through an LED digital display.
Users can set a current alarm threshold that, once exceeded, will cause the PM PDU to sound an alarm
or send a notification message, or both.
Flexible management options
ƒ How do you limit who has permission
to power cycle equipment and how
is that activity logged?
Avocent IPDUs can be combined with an ACS 6000 console server or DSR® KVM over IP switch to
provide faster problem solving by integrating system access and power control in a single interface. Now
you can see the remote devices and control their power using an integrated approach that allows you
to actually see the remote device as it powers up or reboots. This integration provides instant feedback
when critical issues are being resolved remotely.
ƒ When you install new equipment,
how do you ensure that you have
power available?
DSView 3 management software integration
The DSView 3 software provides access and control to nearly all equipment found in today’s data
centers. The DSView 3 Power Manager extends the capability of the DSView 3 software by also giving
companies the ability to monitor and measure IT energy consumption, costs, and trends across all levels
within their data centers and remote locations. With the PM2000 & PM3000 IPDUs this information
can allow you to look at individual devices, a rack of equipment, a row of equipment and group items
together to view overall consumptions, capacity and cost across many locations or just a single device.
The PM2000 and PM3000 IPDUs (pictured) supply the power a data center needs.
