APC AP8659 Rack PDU 2G, Metered with Switching, 20A/208V, 16A/230V

The APC AP8659 is a robust, 0U vertical Switched Rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU) engineered to provide advanced power management in high-density IT environments, including enterprise data centers, colocation facilities, and distributed IT infrastructure. This PDU addresses critical challenges by enabling precise power control and granular monitoring, essential for maintaining uptime and optimizing operational efficiency.

Equipped with individual outlet-level metering, the AP8659 offers real-time insights into power consumption at the device level, facilitating accurate capacity planning and load balancing. Its remote outlet control capabilities allow IT teams to remotely power cycle unresponsive equipment, avoiding costly downtime and unnecessary on-site visits. Furthermore, programmable power sequencing delays prevent in-rush current overload during startup and allow for controlled power-up and shutdown of connected devices, minimizing risk to critical systems.

Designed for seamless integration into modern IT racks, the 0U vertical form factor ensures it consumes no valuable rack space, mounting conveniently alongside equipment. Management is flexible, supporting secure access via Web, SNMP, Telnet, and SSH, and integrating with centralized platforms like EcoStruxure IT and InfraStruxure Central for comprehensive monitoring and control across the entire physical infrastructure.

• Individual outlet power metering for granular energy consumption insights.
• Remote on/off control per outlet to manage power to connected devices.
• User-defined alarm thresholds to proactively prevent circuit overloads.
• Power sequencing delays to prevent current in-rushes during startup.
