It’s getting harder to manage a data center efficiently, with rising utility bills and ever-increasing demands due to processor power and server density increases. Growing user requests mean heavier strain on servers and air conditioning units in the data center. For many companies, this puts data center costs and performance under the spotlight—making them essential factors for an efficient IT infrastructure. HP helps companies manage their data centers more effectively to decrease power and cooling costs.
The HP Power Distribution Rack (PDR) improves power management in the data center by moving power distribution to the row level. Decentralizing power improves cable management, decreases diagnostic time for problems, and saves installation costs by reducing the size and number of long power feeds required to reach from large wall mounted distribution units. Housed in a single HP 10000 G2 42U rack, the PDR also saves floor space and allows you to move heat robbing transformers off of the data center floor improving cooling.
Capable of delivering 400 amps redundantly , the HP PDR can power several high density racks with shorter cable runs than conventional site level power distribution systems. Fully redundant inputs and outputs provide dependable power while protecting valuable IT hardware with high quality circuit breaker s. Individual branch circuit monitoring and redundant management modules provide the status and power consumption of each attached rack.

Introducing the new HP Power Distribution Rack, high capacity power distribution and management in a single 42U rack.
Performance
- Fully redundant 400 amp inputs provide plenty of power.
- Three phase power feds can provide low voltage, high voltage and three phase outputs to power a variety of equipment.
- Dual transient voltage surge suppressors protect equipment from power spikes.
- Redundant 42 pole circuit breaker panels protect attached equipment and provide flexibility.
Management
- Dual management displays for configuration and monitoring.
- Individual branch circuit monitoring provides power monitoring for each attached rack.
- Alarms provide notification of impending issues before problems arise.
Options
- High quality commercial grade breakers provide fault protection and are available in a variety of amperages for flexible configuration options.
- Pre-configure metal clad power cables with attached receptacles speed deployment and improve airflow by reducing cable clutter.
Flexibility
- Allow for overhead or under floor feed and distribution for maximum flexibility.
- Pre-configured whips in several lengths and receptacles for many configurations.

Ideal for...
24/7 data centers
- The HP Power Distribution Rack (PDR) enables data centers to provide efficient decentralized power to multiple racks from two separate power sources. Complete redundancy within the PDR with dual inputs supporting dual power panels. High amperage input provides almost twice the capacity of many site level power distribution systems in a smaller foot print. Each HP PDR is capable of providing fully redundant power to 13 racks with 8.6KW loads in each or 23 racks with 4.9KW loads.
Small to Medium size data centers
- The HP Power Distribution Rack provides flexible and easy to configure power distribution in a small footprint by using a single, standard 10000 G2 42U rack. The transformer-less design help keep unnecessary heat out of the data center and improves air conditioning. Pre-configured power drops reduce clutter and improve installation and change management.
Collocation facilities
- The HP Power Distribution Rack easily provides power to multiple racks of equipment while maintaining the flexibility to quickly change configurations as needed. The branch circuit monitoring allows monitoring of each rack individually.
