Vertiv VP5N60A8 Switched Rack PDU
Overview
The Vertiv VP5N60A8 is a 60A, 208V delta switched rack power distribution unit designed for high-density IT environments. It provides granular control over power at the outlet level, enabling remote on/off switching for individual devices. This capability is critical for managing power cycles, rebooting hung equipment without physical access, and preventing unauthorized power consumption. The unit-level monitoring offers real-time data on power usage, voltage, and current, allowing for capacity planning and early detection of potential issues. Its vertical, 17.2KW capacity makes it suitable for deployment in standard server racks where space is at a premium.
Compatibility
This PDU is designed for integration into standard 19-inch server racks. It is compatible with 208V delta power configurations commonly found in enterprise data centers and colocation facilities. The unit-level monitoring features are designed to integrate with Vertiv's infrastructure management platforms and other compatible DCIM solutions.
Installation Notes
The VP5N60A8 requires a 60A, 208V delta circuit. Proper electrical grounding and adherence to local electrical codes are mandatory. Installation should be performed by qualified personnel. The vertical form factor requires sufficient vertical clearance within the rack. Ensure the power source can support the PDU's maximum load capacity of 17.2KW.
