power distribution
solutions
HP recommends using power distribution units (PDUs) in installations where a
number of server units can place serious loading demands on the AC power
bus. HP offers PDUs that provide safety and reliability to multi-server installations.
The units described in this white paper offer 0U/1U mounting options and
feature circuit-breaker protection of equipment in groups.
