Raritan PX3-5215I2V-P1V4 21-Outlets PDU

Discover a high-density, intelligent power distribution solution engineered for today’s data centers, server rooms, and enterprise IT environments. The Raritan PX3-5215I2V-P1V4 21-Outlets PDU is a switched, metered-by-outlet power distribution unit that provides granular control and visibility across all connected devices. With a robust IEC 60309 input specification, a combination of IEC 60320 C13 and C19 outlets, and a management-friendly RJ-45 interface, this PDU empowers operations teams to monitor energy use, enforce power limits, and optimize rack-level power distribution. Its design emphasizes reliability, scalability, and ease of installation, making it a practical backbone for load balancing, workload placement, and energy-aware infrastructure planning. Whether you’re deploying blade servers, high-density storage, or dense network gear, the PX3-5215I2V-P1V4 helps you manage power intelligently while reducing risk of overloading circuits and preserving uptime.

• The PX3-5215I2V-P1V4 offers a total of 21 outlets, split between 3 x IEC 60320 C13 and 18 x IEC 60320 C19, delivering flexible outlet density to support diverse server, storage, and network devices in a single, organized PDU. This arrangement accommodates high-density racks and mixed equipment profiles, enabling clean cabling and efficient power distribution in constrained spaces.
• Switched with Metered-by-Outlet capabilities provide per-outlet energy measurement and control. Operators can monitor real-time power usage per device, set per-outlet thresholds, automatically shed or throttle power when limits are approached, and generate precise consumption data for chargebacks, capacity planning, and future-proofing data center operations.
• Electrical and safety specifications are tuned for demanding data-center workloads. The PDU supports IEC 60309 input with 3P+N+E configuration and is rated for 415 V AC at up to 60 A, with a 4P5W signaling configuration. This combination ensures compatibility with European and other high-voltage data-center deployments while delivering reliable protection against overloads through integrated circuit breakers and protective circuitry.
• Networking and remote management features provide centralized visibility and control. An RJ-45 network port enables secure, scalable access to SNMP-based monitoring and web-based management interfaces. From a central console, IT teams can view per-outlet metering data, receive alerts, export usage trends, and implement policy-driven power controls across multiple PDUs in the rack or data-center footprint.
• Long cord length and practical mounting design support flexible, rapid deployment. The 9.84-foot cord allows you to position the PDU in optimal locations within the rack or cabinet, while the button-mount configuration simplifies installation and reconfiguration in dynamic data-center environments. The combination of a high-capacity distribution and a compact footprint makes this PDU suitable for dense racks, edge spaces, and scalable power management strategies that align with load-balancing goals and energy-efficiency initiatives.

How to Install Raritan PX3-5215I2V-P1V4 21-Outlets PDU

• Plan your deployment in advance by identifying a suitable rack or cabinet location with adequate clearance for ventilation and cable management. Verify that your power distribution path can deliver 415 V AC at up to 60 A, and ensure you have the correct electrical connector compatible with your facility’s distribution system.
• Unbox the PX3-5215I2V-P1V4 and inspect for any shipping damage. Confirm that all outlets (3 x C13, 18 x C19) and the 9.84-foot cord are present and undamaged. Keep the unit’s mounting hardware accessible for the installation.
• Mount the PDU using the button-mount design into the rack or cabinet. Align the mounting points with the rack rails, secure the PDU firmly, and ensure there is ample space for air flow around the unit to support cooling of both the PDU and the connected devices.
• Connect the power input cord to the facility’s 415 V, 60 A power source. Use appropriate cables and connectors that meet local electrical codes and safety standards. Route the 9.84-foot cord in a way that avoids pinch points and strain on the connection.
• Configure the PDU’s network management settings by connecting the RJ-45 port to your management network. Access the web UI or SNMP interface to assign an IP address, configure user access, and enable per-outlet metering and switching policies. Define alert thresholds and create dashboards or reports to monitor energy usage across outlets and devices.
• Test the system thoroughly: verify that each outlet can be switched on/off, confirm per-outlet metering data updates in real time, and simulate overload protection by observing how the circuit breaker responds to fault conditions. Validate that alerts and logs are being generated and delivered to your monitoring stack as configured.
• Document the configuration for future audits, capacity planning, and change control. Maintain a regular maintenance window to review firmware, security settings, and alarm policies to keep the system up to date with your organization’s security and compliance standards.
