Luxul has announced an expansion of its product line with a new series of intelligent network power distribution units (PDU).

The PDU series consists of the PDU 2, with two individual IP-controllable outlets; the rack-mountable PDU 8, with eight controllable outlets and one additional convenience outlet; and the PDU 16, with eight controllable outlets and eight additional convenience outlets.

Featuring self-healing and seamless integration with remote management platforms, the PDU series makes it simple for integrators to monitor and manage connected devices. It also allows for the local monitoring and rebooting of unresponsive devices, while a self-healing function performs reboots automatically to avoid costly truck rolls and service calls.

When used with third-party remote management platforms, such as Domotz and Ihiji, the units’ capabilities expand to include remote access and control.

“Including an intelligent PDU is a must for any installation for integrators to more effectively monitor and manage their clients’ networks and create a better customer experience. That’s what makes our new PDU series such an important and exciting addition to our platform of networking solutions,” says Luxul vice president of marketing Mike Grubb.

Power management features for the PDU series include MOV surge and spike protection for connected equipment in addition to remote sequencing for controlled start-up and shutdown.

Luxul offers a lifetime limited warranty for connected equipment and the PDUs are backed by a three-year limited warranty and lifetime remote support.

“Now integrators have a solution backed by the Luxul name and another piece toward a complete Luxul installation,” says Mike.
