Subject: Re: Front-access PDU
I have seen the term "PDU" used for two completely different types of
products.
Computer makers such as Compaq and Dell use the term Power Distribution
Unit to refer to a rack mounted power strip. As far as they are concerned,
a PDU is just a plug and set of outlets in a 1U rack mount enclosure.
Electric product companies (and Underwriters Laboratories) use the term to
refer to a large box with a power distribution panel. It may have one or
more sets of breakers and may include a step-down transformer.
Which type are you looking for and do you need a PDU that meets NEBS
requirements?
American Power Conversion makes the first type (rack mount power strip)
that may meet your needs. Dell Computer has a variety of rack mounted
power strips with configurations different from the APC strips.

Does anyone know of a supplier of a totally front-access PDU for use in
European CO applications?
