Chatsworth EA-5010-CE PDU Redundancy Pack

Overview

The Chatsworth EA-5010-CE is a PDU redundancy pack designed to provide dual power feeds to critical IT equipment, ensuring continuous operation even if one power source fails. This unit is essential for maintaining high availability in server racks and data center environments where uptime is paramount. The EA-5010-CE facilitates the connection of two separate power distribution units (PDUs) to a single device, offering a robust solution for power redundancy.

Compatibility

This PDU redundancy pack is designed to work with standard rack-mount power distribution units. It is compatible with equipment requiring dual power inputs, allowing for seamless integration into existing or new rack configurations. While specific PDU models are not listed, the design supports standard IEC C13/C14 connections, common across most commercial PDUs.

Installation Notes

Installation involves connecting the two input power sources (from separate PDUs) into the EA-5010-CE and then connecting the single output from the EA-5010-CE to the critical equipment. Ensure that both power sources are from independent circuits to achieve true redundancy. Verify that the total power draw of the connected equipment does not exceed the capacity of either PDU or the EA-5010-CE's combined output capability.
