HOW IT WORKS
1. Designate a Switched or Monitored unit
with an IMD-3E or IMD-03E installed as
the master unit. The IMD-3E comes
standard with Switched and Outlet Level
Monitored units.
2. Connect up to 50 devices through a
network switch or by daisy chaining
the rPDUs to the master unit.
3.
Securely access downstream device data
via
SNMP or the master unit user interface
through a single IP address and bring the
consolidated data in your private cloud.
4. Bring your infrastructure data together
with the option to connect to the
Vertiv Intelligence cloud platform.
On Monitored
*
and Switched units,
users have the ability to daisy chain up
to 50 devices with a single IP address.
Access data from all downstream
rPDU and UPS** devices from
one master rPDU.
Users are able to aggregate data by
grouping devices by rack or row.
Downstream devices self-configure,
significantly reducing deployment time.
Securely transmit device data to
the Vertiv Intelligence cloud for
anytime access to critical
infrastructure information.

OUR DISTRIBUTION ASSURANCE PACKAGE FOR VERTIV GEIST RPDUS INCLUDES:
ORDERING INFORMATION
The Distribution Assurance Package
combines market-leading rPDU
technology with a five-year
protection plan and the industry’s
premier service capability.
Rack Power Distribution Units (rPDUs) are the
last link in the power chain, ensuring delivery
of critical power to IT loads. These critical
components play a key role in data center
infrastructure management, giving you
access to rack-level power consumption
and environmental information. Rack PDUs
also allow you to directly control power to
IT equipment for better capacity and power
management. Having rPDUs that are
properly installed and maintained is
essential for critical system availability.
However, your internal resources who
are dealing with time and budget constraints
cannot always give rPDUs the attention
they need. Additionally, services that aren’t
provided by the original equipment
manufacturer (OEM) may not be
comprehensive or include the level
of expertise required.
By choosing a bundled solution that
combines market-leading rPDU technology
with lifecycle services provided by the
OEM, you simplify the management of
your IT equipment.
Startup and Installation
Factory-authorized Vertiv technicians handle rPDU
installation and startup at your location. You’ll enjoy
the convenience and peace of mind that comes from
having the experts do the job, and IT sta is free to
attend to other tasks.
Five-Year Protection Plan
The Distribution Assurance Package provides
100 percent labor and travel coverage, and 100
percent parts coverage for maintenance, repair, or
replacement for a full five years. With this level of
protection, you avoid unexpected downtime costs
and gain network availability.
Optional Removal and Disposal
If ordered with the Distribution Assurance Package,
our technicians will remove and dispose of any old
rPDUs while following all regulatory requirements.
This optional task is handled when visiting to install
and startup your new rPDUs.
On-site Support and Emergency Response
Vertiv’s experienced team of technicians oers the
industry’s premier service capability for maintaining
and supporting rPDUs. Should a problem ever arise,
you’ll have 24x7 access to Vertiv’s Customer
Resolution Center. You can count on quick
recognition by support personnel as well as priority
status during emergencies including guaranteed
onsite emergency response.
Comprehensive Reports
We provide on-demand access to service histories and
reports via the Customer Services Network portal.
With this vital information at your fingertips, you will
always know the status of your rPDUs under contract,
and will have the information needed to simplify the
management of this critical power system component.
