What Is an APC Switched Rack PDU?
An APC Switched Rack PDU is a rack-mounted power distribution solution that adds intelligent control to conventional power distribution.
Depending on the model, Switched Rack PDUs can provide capabilities such as:
- Remote outlet-level switching
- Remote power cycling
- Load monitoring
- Power sequencing
- Network-based management
- Rack-level power visibility
- Configurable alerts and alarms
- Integration with IT monitoring platforms
For example, the AP7920B and AP7921B provide outlet switching and monitoring capabilities, while APC Rack PDU 9000 models support remote monitoring and control.
This makes switched PDUs useful for organizations that need greater control over server, networking, storage, and other rack-mounted equipment.
