Chatsworth EA-5030-CE Switched Econnect PDU Redundancy Pack

Overview

The Chatsworth EA-5030-CE is a switched Econnect PDU redundancy pack designed to provide dual, independent power feeds to critical IT infrastructure within a standard 42U rack. This unit facilitates A/B power failover, ensuring continuous operation of servers, network switches, and other essential equipment by mitigating single power source failures. Its vertical mounting orientation maximizes rack space utilization, making it suitable for dense data center environments.

Compatibility

This redundancy pack is engineered for use with Chatsworth's Econnect switched rack PDU line. It is specifically designed to integrate with vertical rack PDU installations supporting 42U rack heights. Ensure your existing Econnect PDUs are compatible with this redundancy pack's switching and power distribution architecture.

Installation Notes

The EA-5030-CE mounts vertically within a standard 19-inch rack, typically alongside the primary Econnect PDUs. Installation requires securing the unit to the rack's vertical mounting rails. Power connections should be made from separate, independent power sources (e.g., UPS A and UPS B) to the respective inputs on the redundancy pack. Output connections then feed to the IT equipment, ensuring each device receives power from both independent sources.
