Tripp Lite by Eaton 28.8kW 220-240V 3PH Switched PDU with LX Interface, Gigabit, 30 Outlets

The Tripp Lite by Eaton 28.8kW 220-240V 3PH Switched PDU with LX Interface is engineered for mission-critical IT environments that demand precise power control, proactive monitoring, and scalable reliability. This 0U, rack-mountable power distribution unit delivers triple-phase efficiency, intelligent load management, and a feature-rich interface designed to minimize downtime while maximizing uptime. With a 1.8 meter power cord and a compact 0U footprint, it fits seamlessly into standard 19-inch racks, freeing valuable space for high-density server, storage, and networking deployments. The LX Interface provides robust network connectivity and remote management capabilities, enabling administrators to observe voltage, current, and load conditions in real time, perform controlled power sequencing, and remotely cycle outlets as part of routine maintenance or emergency response. Built to meet demanding data center requirements, this PDU combines power capacity, safety, and ease of management in a single, scalable solution.

• High-capacity 3-phase power distribution: With a rating of 28.8 kW, this PDU supports dense IT environments by delivering stable, balanced three-phase power to critical devices. The three-phase configuration helps distribute load evenly across phases, improving electrical efficiency and reducing the risk of overloading a single leg in high-density racks.
• Rigid electrical specification for industrial environments: The unit is designed for 220-240 V operation with a 380-415 V input range via a 63 A IEC 309 red inlet, providing compatibility with data center feeders and corporate power systems that rely on high-amperage, reduced-voltage distribution for server rooms and edge installations.
• 30 switched outlets for granular control: Each outlet is individually or group-switch controllable, enabling targeted power cycling, maintenance, and diagnostics without needing direct physical access to each device. This capability reduces mean time to repair (MTTR) and supports safer, more efficient reboot sequences for complex rack configurations.
• LX Interface with Gigabit Ethernet for remote monitoring: The integrated LX Interface delivers network-enabled visibility and control. Administrators can monitor load, voltage, and fault conditions, receive alerts, and perform power sequencing and outlet control over a secure Ethernet connection, all from a centralized management platform.
• Compact 0U design, long cord, and clear display: The 0U footprint enables installation in tight spaces without sacrificing power capacity. A 1.8-meter cord provides flexible reach, while the built-in LCD offers at-a-glance status including voltage, current, and fault notifications for rapid diagnostics and efficient rack management.
