PIPS (Per Inlet Power Sensing) is the most accurate data center power measurement technology on the market for data center rack-level infeed power monitoring. The PIPS CDU/PDU can be accessed through either a secure network or serial connection. The secure integral web interface provides a easy and simple way to monitor the CDU.PIPS combines all of the features of an intelligent CDU/PDU with the ability to provide infeed power measurements per inlet/infeed on the PDU/CDU. Power information per infeed includes current, voltage, crest factor, power, apparent power, power factor, reactance and accumulated energy. The PIPS CDU/PDU supports SNMP traps, email alerts, grouping, and all security and communication settings. Research from the Green Grid shows that measuring at the data center rack infeed level is the most accurate place to measure IT load power in the entire data center.
