Connect the input plug to your facility’s
compatible AC power source.

Both models contain 3 banks of output
receptacles. PDU3VSR (3 banks of 7
C13s and 1 C19). PDU3VN (3 banks
of 10 C13s and 2 C19s). Connect
your equipment’s input plugs to the
appropriate outlets on the PDU. On the
Switched models, the LED near each
outlet illuminates when the outlet is
ready to distribute live AC power.
Note: It is recommended that you do not
connect a live load to the PDU. If the load
you intend to connect has an ON/OFF
switch, please turn the switch to OFF prior to
connection.

(Optional) If you attached the cord
retention bracket(s), tie each equipment
power cord to the retention bracket.
Attach each cord to the retention shelf
by looping the cord and securing it with
one of the included cable ties
A
. Make
sure each cord can be unplugged from
the PDU without removing the cable tie.
Installation
Networking the PDU
Note: The MAC address of the PDU (a 12-digit string in this format: 000667xxxxxx) is printed on a label
attached to the PDU enclosure.
If your network’s DHCP server will assign a dynamic IP address to the PDU automatically, go
to Step
3-1
. If you will assign a static IP address to the PDU manually, go to Step
4-1
. If you
are uncertain which method to use, contact your network administrator for assistance before
continuing the installation process.
Dynamic IP Address Assignment
3-1
Connect PDU to Network:
While the
PDU is powered, connect a standard
Ethernet patch cable to the RJ-45
Ethernet port on the PDU.
Note: This port is not compatible with PoE
(Power over Ethernet) applications. The PDU
will attempt to obtain an IP address via DHCP.
This may take as long as several minutes,
depending on your network environment.
Some Models Will Vary.
