PowerPak Power Distribution Unit
4
Introduction
The Pakedge PowerPak power distribution unit gives you unprecedented convenience and control,
including on/off sequencing to power on and shut down sensitive equipment in a configurable order. The
PDU has full monitoring capabilities including input voltage, frequency, individual outlet current and
temperature (sensor sold separately). The user-defined alerts can trigger actions based on these
measurements, sound an audible buzzer and notify interested parties.
This device has been tested to the specifications of UL1449 for protection against both current and
voltage surges. Remote management of the PDU is easily accomplished with a BakPak Network Patroller
which provides a tunnel to the PDU through the Internet and monitors all your network devices. See “Add
the PowerPak to a BakPak Cloud account” on page 23 for more information on setting up the BakPak
integration.
