Introduction

Overview

As part of its NRGence line, ATEN has developed a new generation of green 
energy power distribution units (PDUs) to effectively increase the efficiency of 
data center power usage. The NRGence PE5324LB / PE5324LG / PE5324LJ / 
PE5324LKJA / PE5324LJA / PE6324LB / PE6324LG / PE6324LJ / 
PE6324LJA / PE5340SLB / PE5340SLG / PE5340SLJ / PE5340SLJA eco 
PDUs are low profile intelligent PDUs that contain 24 or 40 AC outlets and are 
available in various IEC or NEMA socket configurations. The low profile 
series has a smaller input region on the PDU to provide more installation space 
for data centers. 

They provide secure, centralized, intelligent, power management (power on, 
off, cycle) of data center IT equipment (servers, storage systems, KVM 
switches, network devices, serial data devices, etc.), as well as the ability to 
monitor the center's health environment via sensors*. The basic characteristics 
of each model are shown in the table on page 3. 

NRGence eco PDUs offer remote power control combined with real-time 
power measurement - allowing you to control and monitor the power status of 
devices attached to the PDUs, either at the PDU device or outlet level, from 
practically any location via a TCP/IP connection. 

The power status of each outlet can be set individually, allowing users to switch 
each device On/Off. The eco PDU also offers comprehensive power analysis 
reports which can separate departments and locations, providing precise 
measurements of current, voltage, power and watt-hour in a real-time display. 

Installation and operation is fast and easy: plugging cables into their 
appropriate ports and user-friendly browser-based configuration and 
management is all that is entailed. Since the eco PDU firmware is upgradeable 
over the Net, you can stay current with the latest functionality improvements 
simply by downloading updates from our website as they become available.

NRGence eco PDU supports any 3rd party V1, V2, V3 SNMP Manager 
Software and NRGence eco Sensors (eco PDU Manager Software). eco 
Sensors provides you with an easy method for managing multiple devices, 
offering an intuitive and user-friendly Graphical User Interface that allows you 
to configure a PDU device and monitor power status of the equipment 
connected to it.
