If you’re seeking a scalable power distribution solution that integrates seamlessly into a broader power management strategy, this Eaton PDU is purpose-built to meet those needs across data centers, enterprise server rooms, and edge environments.
- Powerful 7.7 kW capacity with 230V output for dense racks — This single-phase switched PDU delivers ample power to support high-density IT gear, from servers and storage to network devices. It features a 32A IEC 309 blue connection for safe, high-current distribution and reliable operation. The 10 ft (3.05 m) cord provides flexible routing to power sources, enabling cleaner cable management and unobstructed front access to equipment. With individual outlets that can be controlled remotely, you gain the ability to power cycle devices, sequence power on/off, and protect critical infrastructure from unexpected outages. This combination is ideal for data centers and server rooms that require scalable power distribution with precise control and visibility.
- LX Platform Interface for centralized, data-driven power management — The LX Platform Interface integrates seamlessly with Eaton’s LX ecosystem, delivering real-time monitoring, alarms, and analytics across the PDU. IT teams can view per-outlet current and voltage, set up alerts for abnormal loads, and perform remote power control to reboot servers or isolate faults without on-site visits. The interface supports secure access, reporting, and automation, enabling proactive maintenance and energy optimization. By consolidating power data in a single pane, this PDU helps optimize uptime, improve mean time to repair, and support green IT initiatives through smarter load management.
- 0U vertical design that maximizes rack density — The compact 0U footprint is purpose-built for space-constrained racks, freeing front-of-rack space for critical equipment and facilitating orderly cable management. Its slim profile fits into standard racks without sacrificing reliability or functionality. The 10 ft (3.05 m) cord is lengthened to accommodate varied rack layouts, making it easier to connect to power sources located at a distance. The blue IEC 309 32A connectors provide a clear, standardized, high-current interface for safe distribution, while the robust enclosure withstands the rigors of continuous data-center operation.
- Durable, data-center-grade construction with compliant design — Engineered for reliability, this PDU combines heavy-duty materials with precise manufacturing to withstand demanding environments. The 7.7 kW rating supports a wide range of IT hardware, and the switched outlets offer granular control over individual devices for improved fault isolation. Compliance with industry standards and a focus on security and reliability ensure a dependable component in your power infrastructure, suitable for production deployments, colocation facilities, and edge computing environments.
- Versatile for data centers, server rooms, and network closets — Whether expanding a blade-server cluster, provisioning a storage array, or supporting distributed edge deployments, this PDU provides accurate control, visibility, and scalability. Remote power management reduces manual intervention, improves troubleshooting efficiency, and supports energy-saving strategies through smart power switching and load shedding. The combination of high capacity, LX platform integration, and a space-efficient form factor makes it a flexible choice for IT environments that demand resilient, scalable power delivery.

How to install Eaton 7.7kW Single-Phase Switched PDU
- Plan your rack layout and verify compatibility — Confirm that your rack supports a 0U PDU footprint and that the circuit you intend to use provides 230V with a 32A capability. Check available front-panel space and ensure there is clearance for cables and the LX Platform Interface connection if applicable.
- Prepare mounting hardware — Gather the necessary cage nuts, screws, and mounting rails suitable for your rack. Ensure the mounting orientation is consistent with your data-center standards and cable-management practices.
- Mount the PDU in the rack — Slide or place the 0U PDU into the selected rack bay and secure it with the appropriate hardware. Confirm a secure, vibration-free installation to prevent outlet misalignment or cable strain over time.
- Connect the power source — Route the 10 ft (3.05 m) cord to a 230V power source that can supply up to 32A. Use proper grounding and ensure that the receptacle and circuit breakers meet local electrical codes. Minimize cord tension and plan cable routing to support airflow and accessibility.
- Connect devices and configure LX Platform Interface — Attach your IT equipment to the IEC 309 sockets, ensuring each device receives appropriate power. If using the LX Platform Interface, connect the PDU to the LX management network and configure outlets, alerts, and power sequencing according to your facility’s policies. Verify outlet statuses and test remote power control and reboot capabilities in a controlled maintenance window.
- Test and validate operation — Power on equipment and monitor outlet performance via the LX interface. Confirm that remote control works as expected, that alarms trigger correctly, and that load distribution aligns with your design. Document the configuration for future maintenance and audits.
