Tripp Lite by Eaton 7.7kW Single-Phase Monitored PDU with LX Interface

The Tripp Lite by Eaton 7.7kW Single-Phase Monitored PDU is engineered to deliver dependable power distribution for demanding data centers, server rooms, and network closets. This high-capacity, vertically oriented PDU combines robust electrical performance with real-time monitoring to give IT teams visibility into every outlet and circuit. With an LX interface for proactive management, a versatile 200-240V outlet configuration, and a compact 0U footprint plus an exceptionally tall form factor, this PDU helps organizations optimize uptime, energy efficiency, and rack-space utilization while meeting stringent industry and government procurement standards.

• Monitored power distribution with LX interface provides real-time visibility into voltage, current, power, and energy usage. This enables proactive alerting and easier capacity planning, so you can head off overloads before they impact critical systems. The LX interface delivers actionable data that IT teams rely on for performance tuning and long-term reliability.
• High-capacity 7.7 kW load rating for dense deployments supports modern rack equipment, including power-hungry servers, storage arrays, and network gear. By delivering consistent, clean power at scale, this PDU reduces the risk of equipment throttling or outages during peak workloads and growth phases.
• Flexible outlet mix: 36 C13 and 6 C19 outlets tailor the PDU to a broad range of devices. This generous configuration accommodates common data center gear—from blade servers and switches to storage controllers—without forcing awkward power-stripe arrangements. Outlets are distributed to maximize accessibility and cable management inside the rack.
• Reliable, standards-based connectivity with an IEC 309 32A blue plug and a 10 ft (3.05 m) cord ensures a secure, code-compliant connection to the building power distribution system. The long cord offers flexibility in cabling layouts, enabling easier routing in larger racks or rooms while maintaining safe, clean power delivery.
• Space-saving yet tall design for optimized rack density features a 0U footprint with a substantial height of about 70 inches (1.8 meters). This vertical footprint supports thorough cable management and airflow in tall, high-density racks, helping maximize usable cabinet space and improve overall cooling efficiency. The unit is designed to meet procurement standards, including TAA compliance for government and contractor use.

How to install Tripp Lite by Eaton 7.7kW Single-Phase Monitored PDU

• Prepare your rack and location: Ensure the rack cavity can accommodate a 0U footprint while allowing adequate space for cable management and airflow. Verify that the intended mounting area is level and free of obstructions to maximize stability and safety.
• Mount the PDU securely: Use the included mounting hardware to anchor the PDU into the rack. Because this unit is tall, confirm that it remains plumb and that all fasteners are tightened to the manufacturer’s specifications to prevent movement during operation or maintenance.
• Connect to main power: Attach the 10 ft (3.05 m) cord to a suitable 200–240V power source with a 32A circuit rating. Ensure the circuit breaker is sized appropriately for the load and that wiring complies with local electrical codes and data center standards.
• Plan outlet distribution: Route cables to the 36 C13 and 6 C19 outlets, grouping devices by power requirements and ensuring that high-draw equipment does not overload any single branch. Leave enough slack for serviceability and airflow, and label critical loads for quick identification during incidents.
• Enable LX monitoring and alerts: Access the LX interface to enable real-time monitoring, configure thresholds, and set alert preferences. Establish email or SNMP-based notifications as needed, and verify that the PDU is reporting metrics such as voltage, current, and energy consumption accurately.
• Verify operation and document: Power on the equipment and confirm that all outlets power devices correctly. Check the monitoring dashboard for live readings and confirm that alerts trigger as expected. Document the installation with photos and notes for future maintenance and audits.
