Tripp Lite by Eaton 17.3kW 200-240V 3PH Switched PDU - LX Interface

Experience enterprise-grade power distribution tailored for high-density data centers, server rooms, and network closets with this Tripp Lite by Eaton 17.3kW Switched PDU. Engineered for precision control and reliable monitoring, this 3-phase power distribution unit delivers centralized, granular management of your critical IT infrastructure. With a 24-outlet configuration, it provides scalable, network-enabled power to racks and enclosures, enabling IT teams to manage power consumption, optimize uptime, and streamline incident response. The LX Interface, combined with a Gigabit network connection, enables remote control of individual outlets—turn on, turn off, reboot, or lock out power—to protect devices, prevent cascading outages, and simplify maintenance windows. The compact 0U footprint ensures you can maximize rack space, while the 1.8 m cord length offers flexible installation in diverse data-center layouts. Built to withstand demanding environments and designed to integrate seamlessly with existing monitoring ecosystems, this PDU is the trusted backbone for power-aware infrastructure that supports virtualization, cloud services, and high-availability workloads.

• Network-grade, 3-phase switched PDU with a 17.3 kW capacity designed for data centers, server rooms, and high-density network closets. It distributes power safely and efficiently across critical devices while enabling fine-grained control and visibility for every outlet.
• Per-outlet monitoring and control via the LX Interface, allowing administrators to remotely turn on, turn off, reboot, or lock out individual outlets. This capability reduces mean time to repair during maintenance and accelerates incident response by providing precise power sequencing and isolation of problematic devices.
• Gigabit network management combined with a local LCD, offering both centralized remote control and fast on-site status checks. The LCD provides real-time data on voltage, current, power, and energy consumption, empowering quick diagnostics without requiring a dedicated network tool.
• Input power compatibility for 380–415V three-phase systems and a 24-outlet distribution profile. With a L22-30P input connector and a 1.8 m cord, the PDU integrates smoothly into European and other international data-center environments, delivering dependable power distribution across densely populated racks.
• 0U rack-mountable footprint and a robust, data-center-ready build that aligns with industry standards and regulatory expectations. The unit is designed to minimize rack intrusion while delivering scalable, monitored power with a trackable history of outlet activity, enabling proactive capacity planning and energy efficiency initiatives.

How to Install Tripp Lite by Eaton Switched PDU LX Interface

• Plan your rack layout to accommodate a 0U footprint and identify a suitable 380–415V three-phase power source. Ensure the installation location has adequate ventilation and is within reach of the 1.8 m input cord for convenient connection to the main power feed.
• Mount the PDU in the rack using the appropriate 0U rails or brackets provided by your rack equipment. Confirm level installation to ensure stability during power cycling and to prevent any strain on the cord or outlets.
• Connect the L22-30P input plug to the 380–415V three-phase supply. Verify that the supply can handle the anticipated load and that breakers and protective devices are sized correctly for the 17.3 kW capacity.
• Distribute devices across the 24 outlets. Route power cables neatly to prevent airflow obstruction and to facilitate future maintenance. Leave access space around the LCD panel and network connectors for easy monitoring and management.
• Power on the PDU and verify the LCD display shows normal status indicators. Use the LX interface to configure basic network settings, including IP address, gateway, and SNMP settings if you intend to integrate with existing monitoring tools.
• Enable outlet monitoring and per-outlet control as needed. Create power-on sequences for critical devices to avoid inrush-related issues. Set up alert thresholds for voltage, current, and energy usage to receive proactive notifications when performance deviates from expected ranges.
• Test access methods: check both the local LCD readings and remote management via the Gigabit network. Validate that you can individually switch outlets on/off, reboot devices remotely, and lock out outlets if required for maintenance windows or security reasons.
• Document configuration and provide a labeled map of outlet assignments, especially in densely populated racks. Maintain an up-to-date inventory of devices connected to each outlet to streamline incident response and capacity planning.
