Eaton PDUMNV30HVLX – Monitored Rack PDU 24 Outlets 208/230 V

Overview

The Eaton PDUMNV30HVLX is a 0U vertical monitored rack power distribution unit (PDU) designed for network and data center power infrastructure where real‑time remote power visibility is required. It’s typically deployed by data center engineers and IT infrastructure teams in server racks, IDF/MDF closets, and telco cabinets to distribute high‑voltage single‑phase power while monitoring load and electrical parameters via a built‑in network interface. The monitoring capability addresses the need for remote power visibility to prevent overload and support capacity planning.

Electrically, the PDUMNV30HVLX supports 208/230 V single‑phase AC and is rated for up to 24 A continuous input current, translating to approximately 5.5 kW (208 V) to 5.8 kW (230 V) of total output capacity. Power is delivered through a NEMA L6‑30P input plug with a 10 ft (≈3.05 m) power cord, and distributed to 24 total outlets — 20 IEC‑320 C13 and 4 IEC‑320 C19 receptacles — that handle a mix of low‑ and mid‑range rack devices.

Mechanically, the unit occupies 0U vertical rack space in 19‑inch EIA‑standard racks, saving rack units for active systems. Its vertical orientation and included toolless mounting hardware enable installation along rack posts with minimal footprint impact. Cord retention brackets secure output connections and help maintain structured cable routing.

Integration into structured power ecosystems is facilitated by Eaton’s LX platform interface which supports networked remote monitoring via HTTP/HTTPS, SNMP (v1–v3), SSH, and other protocols. Local digital ammeter readings complement remote data for on‑site load verification. This model fits well in environments paired with UPS systems or generator feeds where power tracking and logging are essential.

A practical deployment example includes vertical installation in a high‑density rack supporting a mixture of servers, switches, and storage arrays, where remote administrators monitor load levels and receive alerts before reaching capacity limits. This PDU is not suited for environments that require outlet‑level switching control or per‑outlet metering; those features are available in switched/managed PDUs with individual outlet control.
