Introduction
Overview
As part of its NRGence line, ATEN has developed a new generation of green
energy power distribution units (eco PDUs) to effectively increase the
efficiency of data center power usage. The NRGence PE7214 / PE7216 /
PE7324 / PE7328 / PE8121kJ / PE8216 / PE8316G / PE8324 / PE8324A /
PE8324JA / PE9216 / PE9222 / PE9324 / PE9330 eco PDUs are intelligent
PDUs that contain 14, 16, 21, 22, 24, 28, or 30 AC outlets and are available in
various IEC socket configurations. Models in the advanced PE9 range feature
a dedicated 8/14-outlet bank for critical load devices, and both the PE8 and PE9
ranges feature NRGence’s proactive overload protection, which automatically
powers off the last outlet that caused the current overload.
NRGence eco PDUs provide secure, centralized, intelligent, power
management (power on, off, cycle) of data center IT equipment (servers,
storage systems, KVM switches, network devices, serial data devices, etc.), as
well as the ability to monitor the center's health environment via sensors*. The
basic characteristics of each model are shown in the table on page 3.
NRGence eco PDUs offer remote power control combined with real-time
power measurement – allowing you to control and monitor the power status of
devices attached to the PDUs, either at the PDU device, bank, or outlet level,
depending on the model, from practically any location via a TCP/IP
connection*.
The power status of each outlet can be set individually, allowing users to switch
each device On/Off. The eco PDU also offers comprehensive power analysis
reports which can separate departments and locations, providing precise
measurements of current, voltage, power and watt-hour in a real-time display.
Installation and operation is fast and easy: plugging cables into their
appropriate ports and user-friendly browser-based configuration and
management is all that is entailed. Since the eco PDU firmware is upgradeable
over the Net, you can stay current with the latest functionality improvements
simply by downloading updates from our website as they become available.
NRGence eco PDU supports any 3rd party V3 SNMP Manager Software and
NRGence eco Sensors (eco PDU Manager Software). eco Sensors provides
you with an easy method for managing multiple devices, offering an intuitive
Chapter 1. Introduction
2
and user-friendly Graphical User Interface that allows you to configure a PDU
device and monitor power status of the equipment connected to it.
With its advanced security features and ease of operation, the eco PDU is the
most convenient, most reliable, and most cost effective way to remotely
manage power access for multiple computer installations and allocate power
resources in the most efficient way possible.
Note: 1. Sensors are optional accessories. A sensor-enabled installation is
required to generate a more complete energy-efficient data and chart.
Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate
data. See Optional Accessories, page 9, for further information.
2. eco PDUs are primarily designed for access via Intranet; extra
network security protection is suggested for Internet access usage.
3. Not all models support all features. See Comparison Chart, page 3,
and Specifications, page 83, for full details.

Proactive Overload Protection (POP)
The PE8121kJ, PE8216, PE8316G, PE8324, PE8324A, PE8324JA, PE9216,
PE9222, PE9324, and PE9330 models feature NRGence’s exclusive Proactive
Overload Protection (POP) technology. Effective on all non-critical outlets,
this added safety feature automatically powers off the last outlet that caused the
current overload.
POP mode is engaged when the current exceeds the set threshold maximum
value, powering off the outlet. The LED display shows POP and a beeper
sounds. Press any button for two seconds to clear POP mode and power the
outlet back on.

Requirements
Browsers accessing the eco PDU unit must support SSL 128 bit
encryption.
For cold booting of attached computers, the computer's BIOS must
support Wake on LAN or System after AC Back.
For Safe Shutdown:
The computer must be running Windows (Windows 2000 or higher) or
Linux.
The Safe Shutdown program (available by download from our website
or on the software CD included), must be installed and running on the
computer.

Optional Accessories
Environment Sensors
For complete energy management of an instrumented data center with the use
of the eco PDU and eco Sensors software, you should install 4 sensors for each
of the racks in your data center in order to generate a complete energy-efficient
data chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more
accurate data. 8/16-port models have 4 sensor ports. Higher sensor installation
density is helpful to generate more accurate data.
To get the most complete eco Sensors Dashboard data, the recommended 4-
sensor setup is show in the table, below:
Door Sensor
All models in the PE7xxx/PE8xxx/PE9xxx range feature a 4-pin dry contact
port for door sensors that supports the monitoring of rackmount enclosure door
access to notify users when a door has been opened.
See the table below for information about the two available door sensors.
Please contact your ATEN dealer for purchasing information:
Sensor Management
Sensors can be managed via the eco PDU’s built-in graphical user interface
(GUI) or with the NRGence eco Sensors software that can be downloaded from
the ATEN website. The download link can be found on the software CD
provided with the eco PDU package.

Cable Holders
Cable holders are optional accessories. For added safety, use ATEN Lok-U-
Plug cable holders to secure the cables from your attached devices in place on
the eco PDU unit. Use only the ATEN Lok-U-Plug cable holders that have
been specifically designed to work with the eco PDU. Using any other kind of
cable securing device could be highly dangerous.
