Why Easy to Use PDUs will Help Your Data Center

With the rapid expansion of data centers creating highly complex IT infrastructures, it’s becoming more important than ever to find ways to increase the efficiency of day-to-day operations.  One of the most practical ways to achieve improved efficiency is through devices that are easy to use and easy to deploy.

That’s where Raritan steps in. Raritan’s PX intelligent PDUs solve this problem with their unique ability to support bulk deployment, enabling operators to save crucial time on installation and configuration, while also getting you up and running faster.

Not only do easy-to-use PDUs save you time, but they also save you a ton of money. A recent case study was conducted by Raritan to prove just how much money you can save. They tested two different methods of deployment and configuration of PDUs, and the results were astounding! Download our eBook to see the results. 

Another easy-to-use feature of Raritan’s PX intelligent PDUs is the utilization of extended cascading. Cascading (or daisy chaining) is defined as a wiring scheme in which multiple devices are wired together in sequence or in a ring. The main benefit of extended cascading is time reduction and cost saving.

Raritan’s PX intelligent PDUs were also developed to be the most user-friendly devices in your power chain. The real-time, intuitive user interface is fast and easy to use, and with the updated PX web GUI, you can access your PDU from a desktop or any mobile device or tablet.

Easy-to-use intelligent PDUs help facilitate and simplify the user experience in deployment and day-to-day management.
