Integrated Remote Power Management and Distribution
for Use in Branch and Remote Offices
Avocent PM PDUs enable remote power control and system management of IT assets in
branch and remote offices. When used in conjunction with Avocent ACS advanced console
servers, MergePoint Unity™ KVM over IP and serial console switches or DSR™ KVM over IP
switch appliances, the Avocent PM PDUs offer quick problem resolution through an integrated
management interface. With one or more outlets positively associated with a particular device,
users may control power “in line” through a user-defined “hot key” or by using an intuitive Web
browser-based graphical user interface (GUI). In addition, a special command set facilitates
scripting.

NEMA Models
Avocent NEMA PM PDU models are equipped with 5-15R power outlets and fixed power cables.
These units are available in 15A, 20A and 30A capacities with optional twist-lock input plugs.
Each model includes two RS-232 ports: one for management and the second for daisy-chain
expansion. Daisy chaining allows an operator to control up to 128 power outlets as a single
device. The NEMA models are designed to operate in 100-125 VAC environments.

console server, the PDU may also send notifications via e-mail messages, Short Message Service
(SMS) pager messages and SNMP traps.
