Server Technology PRO2 36-Outlets PDU
The Server Technology PRO2 36-Outlets PDU is a precision-powered solution built for modern data centers, server rooms, and high-density rack deployments. This switched PDU gives IT teams granular control over outlet power while delivering real-time visibility into current loading on a per-outlet and per-phase basis. With the integrated PIPS technology delivering billing-grade current sensing, the PRO2 enables accurate energy accounting, chargeback, and capacity planning—empowering you to optimize uptime, improve rack efficiency, and reduce the risk of overload during equipment installations and ongoing operations. Designed to simplify rack management, this PDU combines reliable hardware with actionable power analytics, helping you steward your infrastructure more effectively while keeping critical systems online and performing at their best.
- Granular outlet control and visibility: Manage every outlet individually to turn devices on or off as needed, isolate faulty equipment quickly, and perform maintenance without unnecessary downtime. The PRO2 provides clear visual feedback via local indicators, so you can confirm the power state and monitor the current draw of each connected device at a glance, even in crowded racks. This level of outlet-level control translates to faster problem resolution, safer installations, and more predictable power distribution across the entire rack ecosystem.
- Per-phase loading awareness for safe deployments: With explicit per-phase loading information, you can balance demand across phases, helping to prevent overloads that lead to voltage drops or equipment outages. This capability is especially valuable in dense IT environments where multiple high-wattage devices share a single rack. By understanding how loads accumulate on each leg, you can plan future expansions, optimize cooling strategies, and maintain stable power delivery to mission-critical gear.
- PIPS technology for billing-grade current sensing: The PRO2 integrates PIPS technology to deliver highly accurate current measurements suitable for energy reporting, chargeback, and budget tracking. Organizations can generate reliable energy consumption data over time, allocate costs to departments or projects, and enforce power budgets with confidence. This precision helps IT and facilities teams justify upgrades, optimize energy spend, and demonstrate responsible resource management to stakeholders.
- Rack-ready design for quick installation: Engineered for standard 19-inch racks, the PRO2 supports straightforward mounting in data centers and server rooms. Its compact, sturdy form factor minimizes space intrusion while preserving cable management and airflow. The unit is designed to integrate cleanly with existing infrastructure, enabling rapid deployment in new or retrofit environments without complex wiring or reconfigurations.
- Reliable, scalable power management for growing data centers: Built to withstand the rigors of continuous operation, the PRO2 delivers dependable power distribution alongside advanced monitoring. As environments scale—whether adding more blades, storage, or network equipment—the PRO2 grows with you, delivering consistent control, visibility, and measurement that help maintain uptime and extend equipment life.

How to Install Server Technology PRO2 36-Outlets PDU
- Power down equipment and prepare the rack area, ensuring adequate clearance for ventilation and cable routing.
- Position the PRO2 inside the rack with the outlets facing outward for easy access. Align the mounting ears with the rack rails and secure the unit using the included screws or rack hardware per your facility’s standard.
- Connect the PDU to the building power supply using the appropriate input cord, ensuring the outlet configuration and voltage match regional specifications. Verify that any required circuit protection is in place before applying power.
- Route server, storage, and network cables neatly, attaching devices to individual outlets as needed. If per-outlet switching is enabled, configure power-on sequences or maintenance windows to minimize disruption during commissioning and routine operations.
- Power the rack back up and verify operation. Check each outlet’s status indicators and monitoring readouts to confirm correct power delivery and loading readings. Document initial load baselines for future capacity planning and energy management.
