Description
Geist rPDU VA1G8100 12-Outlets PDU
Safeguard Your Critical IT Infrastructure in the Event of a Power Failure.
The Vertiv™ Geist™ Rack Transfer Switch delivers redundant power to single corded devices. Two independent power inputs enables users to connect to a primary and secondary power source. The Geist™ Rack Transfer Switch automatically detects the loss of power and switches the power load to the alternative power source in less than 4-8 milliseconds without the need for human intervention. This ensures equipment remains powered until the primary power source returns providing ultimate mission-critical power reliability.
The Rack Transfer Switch is an open transition switch utilizing a break-before-make process for transferring between the primary and secondary power source. This method of switching does not require phase synchronization between the two power feeds making it suitable for use in both data center and edge locations. It also includes enhanced redundant switches and fail-safe fused thermistors to mitigate current surge during transfers ensuring critical equipment is protected during fail-over.
The Vertiv Geist Rack Transfer Switch provides the widest range of configuration options to support redundancy strategies in most data center and edge applications.
Upgradeable Technology
The Rack Transfer Switch utilizes the evolutionary upgradeable technology used in the Vertiv™ rack PDUs. It provides users with the flexibility to install the intelligence they require today, with the option to upgrade technology as needs evolve. From basic power to power monitoring, the Geist™ Upgradeable product line adapts to your business well into the future.
Enhanced Intelligence
Intelligent models provide a comprehensive view of critical IT equipment power usage at the rack or via remote access. Set user-defined thresholds to receive notifications when power and environmental conditions fall outside the desired range. Outlet level monitored units provide a granular view of equipment power usage, and Switched models enable users to turn-on, turn-off, or reboot individual outlets.
Available in a variety of single phase electrical and receptacle configurations with different intelligence options.
