Chatsworth EA-5137-CE Switched Econnect PDU Redundancy Pack

Overview

The Chatsworth EA-5137-CE is a switched Econnect PDU redundancy pack designed to provide dual power feeds for critical equipment within a 45U vertical rack. This pack includes one PDU in Black and one in Glacier White, ensuring distinct identification for each power source. It addresses the need for high availability by allowing devices with dual power supplies to connect to separate PDUs, mitigating single points of failure in your data center or network closet. The vertical form factor maximizes space utilization in dense 45U enclosures.

Compatibility

This redundancy pack is designed for use with Chatsworth's Econnect switched PDU line, specifically those supporting vertical rack mounting in 45U enclosures. It is intended for equipment that features dual power supply inputs, allowing for connection to two independent power circuits managed by the Econnect system. Ensure your existing Econnect PDUs are compatible with this redundancy configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation requires mounting the two included vertical PDUs into a 45U rack. Connect each PDU to separate, independent power circuits to achieve redundancy. Devices with dual power cords should then be connected, one cord to each PDU. Configuration of the Econnect switched PDUs, including outlet control and power monitoring, is performed via the Econnect management interface.
