Optima - Smart / Intelligent PDUs
Switched PDUs and metered PDUs for Ethernet. Industrial features like surge suppression and EMI filters to protect equipment investment. Compatible with remote EPO control panels. 1-Phase, 3-Phase, 15-, 20-, and 30-amp models. 1U, 3U, and vertical 0U configurations. Intelligent PDUs, also know as smart pdus, are power distribution units with internet networking capabilities used to remotely monitor power data and switch outlets on and off. The Optima RCM 8 Series of standard smart PDUs live up to their Marway industrial heritage. This standardized line of smart PDUs for single-phase and three-phase applications come in 0U, 1U, and 3U sizes. We’ve expanded on the traditional notions of switched PDUs and metered PDUs by adding several industrial features to the 1U and 3U models commonly requested in our custom products. Then we added the most typically requested network capabilities to deliver power monitoring with setpoint alarms, remote outlet switching, and scriptability over a variety of internet protocols such as HTTP/S, SSH, Telnet, SNMP and more.
Ethernet Accessible
Remote switching, power monitoring, and scripting over RESTful HTTP/S, Telnet, SSH, and SNMP.
Industrial Pedigree
Strong chassis, surge suppression, EMI filter, hydraulic magnetic breakers, and remote EPO compatibility.
Gets Your Attention
Tracks and alerts current, voltage, switch activity, EPO, logins, configuration changes, and more.

A smart PDU is a power distribution unit with internet networking capabilities used to remotely read power data and turn outlets on and off. Advanced smart PDUs also include adjustable setpoints which constantly monitor power data, and send alerts to users and other networked systems when there are excessively high or low values. Smart PDUs are also known as intelligent PDUs or networked PDUs.
Marway’s smart PDUs features several networking protocols to make it easy and familiar to monitor power data, control outlet on/off state, and configure the system for sending alerts.
Some protocols are designed for people to use. We call these human to machine interfaces, and include web pages and command lines. Other protocols are designed for machine to machine communication. These are used to automate monitoring and switching using another computer.
