CyberPower PDU44302 power distribution unit (PDU) 18 AC outlet(s) 2U Black

The CyberPower PDU44302 Power Distribution Unit is a managed, 2U rack-mounted PDU with 18 AC outlets and dual-input capability. Designed for data centers and server rooms, it delivers power distribution, real-time monitoring, and automatic transfer switching between two power sources to maintain continuous operation for connected equipment. The unit includes a 3.05 m power cable and a digital, user-configurable color LCD for load and status information.

Advantages

The PDU44302 provides redundant power through dual inputs and an automatic transfer switch to minimize downtime. Remote individual outlet control over the network enables administrators to power cycle devices from any location. The hot-swappable Ethernet/LCD module and USB firmware upgrade support simplify maintenance and allow on-site updates without interrupting power distribution. Integrated event logging, email/SMS/SNMP notifications, and compatibility with PowerPanel® management software enable centralized monitoring and quick response to power events. An RJ45 port supports an optional environmental sensor for temperature and humidity monitoring.

How to use

Install the PDU44302 in a 2U space in your equipment rack using the adjustable mounting brackets. Connect each of the dual input power cords to separate power sources (UPS, generator, or utility) to enable redundancy. Configure network settings for remote management via the built-in hot-swappable Ethernet module and install PowerPanel® software or use the web interface for outlet control, monitoring, and event logging. Use the LCD to view real-time load and status; change its color to categorize connected equipment as needed. Plug an optional ENVIROSENSOR into the RJ45 port for environmental monitoring. Apply firmware updates through the USB port when available.

Recommendations

Use separate, properly rated upstream power sources for the dual inputs and ensure the total connected load does not exceed the 32 A maximum. Regularly review event logs and configure notifications (email, SMS, SNMP) to receive alerts on power events. Perform firmware upgrades during maintenance windows and verify cord retention and IEC receptacle locks are engaged to secure connections.
