CyberPower PDU44004 Power Distribution Unit

The CyberPower PDU44004 is a compact, rack‑mountable power distribution unit (PDU) designed for data centers, server rooms, and high‑density IT environments. With a 1U footprint and a robust set of features, it delivers reliable power management while keeping space usage to a minimum.

Key Physical Characteristics

• Form Factor: 1U rackmount (2.54 mm height)
• Dimensions: 44 mm width × 45 mm depth (approx.) – fits standard 19‑inch racks
Weight: 0.8 kg (lightweight for easy handling)
• Color: Matte black finish for a professional look
• Cable Length: 3.05 m standard power cord, ensuring flexibility in cable routing

• Input: 2 × IEC‑60320 C14 connectors (single‑phase, 200–240 V)
• Output: 12 × IEC‑60320 C13 outlets (10 A each, 200–240 V)
• Total Output Capacity: 120 VA / 10 A
• Power Factor: 0.95 (typical)
• Efficiency: >90% at full load
• Surge Protection: Integrated MOVs with a surge rating of 5 kA
• Grounding: Dedicated grounding terminal for safety compliance

The PDU44004 incorporates an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS), enabling seamless power source switching between the primary utility feed and a backup generator or UPS. This feature is critical for maintaining uptime in environments where power continuity is non‑negotiable.

• Transfer Mode: Manual or automatic, configurable via SNMP or web interface
• Transfer Time: 0.5 s (typical) – minimal interruption during switchover
• Input Redundancy: Dual C14 inputs allow for redundant power feeds
• Output Isolation: Each outlet can be individually switched, providing granular control over connected equipment

The PDU44004 supports remote management through multiple protocols, ensuring administrators can monitor and control power distribution from a central console.

• SNMP (v1/v2c/v3): Full support for network‑based monitoring tools
• Web Interface: Lightweight HTTP/HTTPS server with intuitive GUI
• Serial Port: RS‑232/RS‑485 interface for legacy integration
• LCD Display (optional): 2‑line alphanumeric panel showing status, voltage, current, and fault conditions
• Event Logging: Stores power events, transfer actions, and fault occurrences for audit purposes

• Certifications: UL 1449, IEC 60950‑1, CE marked – meeting global safety standards
• Overload Protection: Internal circuit breakers trip at 120 % of rated current
• Temperature Rating: Operating temperature range: 0 °C to 55 °C
• Humidity Tolerance: 10–90 % RH (non‑condensing)
• EMI/RFI Shielding: Built‑in shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, protecting sensitive equipment

The PDU44004 is engineered for straightforward installation in standard 19‑inch racks. Its slim profile allows it to be mounted behind other rack units without obstruction.

• Mounting: Standard 1U rails with quick‑release screws; no additional brackets required
• Cable Management: Integrated cable ties and grommets keep power cords organized and reduce airflow blockage
• Orientation: Front panel faces the rack side for easy access to outlets and switches
• Power Routing: Dual C14 inputs can be connected to separate power feeds or a UPS, ensuring redundancy from the outset

• Data Centers: Distribute power to servers, storage arrays, and networking gear while maintaining high uptime through ATS functionality.
• Compact solution for small‑to‑medium installations where space is at a premium.
• Reliable power distribution with surge protection for PLCs and SCADA equipment.
• Manage critical broadcast hardware with minimal downtime during power transitions.

• Space Efficiency: 1U footprint maximizes rack utilization.
• Reliability: Dual inputs and ATS ensure continuous operation even during utility failures.
• Granular Control: Individual outlet switching allows selective power management.
• Remote Management: SNMP, web, and serial interfaces provide comprehensive monitoring capabilities.
• Safety Compliance: Meets international safety standards for industrial and commercial use.

The CyberPower PDU44004 combines robust power distribution with intelligent management features in a compact form factor. It is an ideal choice for any environment where space, reliability, and remote control are paramount.
