Challenge #4: A wide range of IT deployment scenarios. APC offers a NetShelter for every application—from open- frame racks, to wall-mounted units, to racks with side airflow features to accommodate network switches, there’s a rack for every mission-critical IT need. NetShelter SX enclosures can meet the needs of different types/sizes and densities of IT equipment with different heights, widths, and depths in various designs specific to server, networking, and even AV applications. Even if there is no dedicated IT space, APC has an enclosure, NetShelter CX, that’s a complete, secure, “server room in a box.” With soundproofed design, casters, adjustable rails for varying IT equipment, and pre-installed Rack PDU, it literally can be rolled out wherever you need it.


Challenge #5: Growing IT complexity. Trends such as virtualization and consolidation are creating a convergence of different types of IT equipment in many racks. The wide array of rack and enclosure options from APC supports these trends and provides an infrastructure for mounting a mix of different equipment in an efficient and flexible design.


Challenge #6: Better management to support changing IT requirements. No matter which APC Rack PDU is being used, the rack will accept all the Rack PDU designs and will support the customer if they choose to upgrade from a Basic to Switched Rack PDU with more remote device manageability. With switched rack PDUs, for example, if a network switch is hung, you can reboot it remotely through individual outlet control and you can turn on/off outlets remotely.

Challenge #7: Managing energy intelligently. APC metered rack PDUs monitor power and energy at the rack level, providing timely data to IT managers for decision making and ensuring the most efficient usage of power at every rack. As the base energy management tool, metered rack PDUs provide the granularity required to monitor energy use and reveal potential efficiency gains in IT solutions, thereby improving energy savings.

The Switched Rack PDUs also improve energy management and drive real energy savings. Specifically, you can turn on/off outlets remotely, allowing for strategically timed delays when power is not needed (e.g., during weekends) or to turn off less critical equipment to save energy.
