How to install Eaton 5.5kW Single-Phase Switched PDU

• Prepare a standard 19" equipment rack with suitable clearance and verify that the rack has 0U space available for the PDUMVR30HVNETLX installation. Confirm that the rack can support the weight and the electrical load of the PDU and connected devices.
• Mount the PDU using the included hardware, securing it to the rack rails at the appropriate height. Ensure the unit is level and firmly fastened to prevent movement during operation or maintenance.
• Connect the PDU to a dedicated 208/230V power circuit with appropriate overcurrent protection. Verify that the circuit rating aligns with the PDU’s power draw and that protection devices (breaker or fuse) meet local electrical codes.
• Connect the LX interface to your management network using the provided Ethernet connection. Power on the PDU and verify network connectivity and reachability from your IT monitoring tools or management console.
• Configure per-outlet policies via the built-in web interface or compatible management software. Set on/off, reboot, or lockout rules for individual outlets, enable outlet monitoring, and establish alert preferences for proactive management.
• Test the setup by issuing remote commands to select outlets (turn on/off, reboot) and confirm accurate status reporting on the management dashboard. Validate that monitoring data and alerts are flowing correctly to your operational workflows.
