Track Busbar
...the chaos often found with traditional PDUs and cable whips
under the floor
A cable “jungle” running in every direction is difficult to follow and
expensive to move. The jungle is often accompanied with power
interruptions through frequent maintenance and the adding of new
cables. In addition it blocks valuable cooling air space!
Each power module is circuit pro-
tected with circuit breakers or fuses
right at the point-of-use.
Starline Busbar provides power to rack
rows used in data centres, development
and testing sites, and manufacturing
facilities. It replaces bulky, fixed
position hardwired outlets with flexible
connections where you need them.
Starline offers a wide variety of
plug-in modules to meet specific
needs. They can be relocated in
seconds without power interrup-
tion or a limitation of where to
place them. Plug-ins are avail-
able with fixed or drop power
cords depending on your specific
requirements.
Power monitoring is available
to measure phase loads, pro-
vide alarm functions, onboard
LED displays, and/or remote
communication. Monitoring
can be built into the end feed
unit or as a plug-in monitor.
