Extron has delivered the IPL EXP PDU8L control system power expansion interface, providing centralised 12V DC power management, monitoring and temperature sensing.

Delivering 60W across eight individually controllable outputs, the IPL EXP PDU8L is Ethernet-enabled and features the ability to monitor power consumption while providing a temperature port and thermistor probe for tracking temperature conditions of any ambient air space or device.

“We are excited to offer another next generation power controller to our customers,” Extron chief marketing officer Casey Hall says.

“These compact interfaces can be used with any IPCP Pro xi Series control processor or can also function as stand-alone devices for power management, providing even greater flexibility for system designs.”

The IPL EXP PDU8L is designed to be used with an IPCP Pro xi Series control processor for secure, encrypted power control of attached devices. It can also operate independently using a secure Extron API, enabling seamless integration for specialised applications or direct control via the built-in web page.

The IPL EXP PDU8L is housed in a compact 1U quarter rack enclosure that offers a broad variety of mounting options, including mounting directly to Extron basic, universal rack shelf products or behind a display.
