Power Distribution Units (PDUs)
Power Distribution Units (also known as PDUs or power strips) are fitted with output sockets and a mains power connection. They can be supplied in a number of output socket and mains power supply plug combinations and range from basic power strips to advanced power distribution units with advanced metering, remote monitoring and individual and grouped socket control. The PDUs within this collection include some that can be wall mounted or installed horizontally within server cabinets. The majority (more than 480mm in length) are designed for vertical installations.

Power Splitter Boxes take a three phase or single phase AC power source such as a mains power supply or UPS or standby generator output and split this into a number of socket outlets.
Power Transfer Switches include ATS and STS switches and provide a way to power a connected load or distribution unit from two AC power sources: two UPS systems or two AC mains power supplies or a combination of both.
