APC power distributors with measuring function per output (Metered by Outlet) ensure optimization of energy use and the protection of circuits by recording measured values at each output.Current measurements enable real-time remote monitoring of connected loads. Metered by Outlet Rack PDUs provide energy consumption data so data center managers can make informed decisions about load balancing and right-sizing IT environments, reducing total cost of ownership. The devices have numerous functions and features: active power monitoring, temperature/humidity sensor connection, IEC sockets with locking and ultra-slim circuit breakers. The Metered by Outlet Rack PDUs are configured via a secure web connection or SNMP or Telnet interface. APC central management platforms such as InfraStruxure Central, Operations, Capacity and Energy Efficiency are available as complementary management solutions.

Current measurement function for each output Measuring individual outputs provides a more detailed overview of the power consumption of individual systems in the rack. In addition, this enables analyzes of trends in the power consumption of individual components and more precise capacity planning.
