Chatsworth EA-5013-CE Switched Econnect PDU Redundancy Pack

Overview

The Chatsworth EA-5013-CE is a vertical rackmount redundancy pack designed to provide dual power feeds to critical IT equipment within a 42U enclosure. This unit addresses the need for uninterrupted power by allowing a single device with dual power supplies to connect to two separate power distribution units (PDUs). It includes one black and one Glacier White unit, facilitating clear identification of power sources. This pack is essential for maintaining uptime in server rooms and data centers where power continuity is paramount.

Compatibility

This redundancy pack is specifically designed for use with 42U vertical rack enclosures. It is compatible with any IT device featuring dual power supply inputs, enabling connection to two separate switched Econnect PDUs. The pack is intended for integration within standard data center rack infrastructure where power redundancy is a requirement.

Installation Notes

Installation involves mounting the two units vertically within the rack, typically on opposite sides or at opposite ends of the rack to ensure physical separation of power feeds. Each unit connects to a separate PDU, and the device's dual power cords are then plugged into the respective units within the pack. Ensure adequate clearance for power cord connections and airflow around the connected equipment.
