Chatsworth EA-5046-E Switched Econnect PDU
Overview
The Chatsworth EA-5046-E is a vertical, switched Econnect Power Distribution Unit (PDU) engineered for deployment in 42U or taller server cabinets. It provides 240V power distribution to rack-mounted equipment, offering remote control and monitoring of individual outlets. This PDU is ideal for environments requiring granular power management and the ability to cycle power to specific devices remotely, such as enterprise data centers or co-location facilities.
Compatibility
This PDU is specifically designed for use within 42U or higher server cabinets. Its vertical form factor ensures it occupies minimal horizontal rack space, maximizing the number of devices that can be installed. It is compatible with standard 240V power input and is intended for use with equipment requiring this voltage and amperage rating. While not tied to a specific server brand, its physical dimensions and mounting are standardized for common rack systems.
Installation Notes
Installation requires mounting vertically within a server rack, typically on the side opposite the equipment rails. Ensure the rack has sufficient vertical clearance for a 42U or taller unit. Connection to the 240V power source must be made by a qualified electrician, adhering to all local and national electrical codes. Network connectivity is required for remote switching and monitoring features, necessitating an available Ethernet port and IP address.
