Raritan PX4 Switched PDU 17.3kW 3PH 415V 42-Outlet

The Raritan PX4-5878R is a 3-phase switched rack PDU engineered for high-density data centre environments requiring granular remote power control at the outlet level. Built on Raritan's iX7 controller platform, it delivers a maximum capacity of 17.3 kW from a 415 V three-phase input, distributing power across 42 individually switched and monitored outlets. The iX7 controller provides enhanced processing power for real-time environmental monitoring, sub-second outlet switching response, and support for modern security protocols including TLS 1.3 and SNMPv3, making it well-suited for zero-trust network architectures.

Each of the 42 outlets can be independently switched on or off, power-cycled, and sequenced through the embedded web interface, RESTful API, SNMP, or CLI, enabling remote hands-free power management across geographically distributed facilities. Per-outlet current, voltage, power (watts), power factor, and energy (kWh) measurements are captured continuously, feeding into DCIM platforms via native integrations. Outlet-level current and power thresholds trigger configurable alerts before circuit breakers trip, supporting proactive capacity management and preventing unplanned outages.

The PX4-5878R is purpose-built for the operational demands of hyperscale compute, GPU-accelerated AI and machine learning inference clusters, high-frequency trading infrastructure, and colocation cabinets where tenants require isolated, auditable per-outlet power accountability. Its 0U vertical form factor preserves full rack unit space for revenue-generating compute equipment, and the unit supports daisy-chain networking with additional PX4 units to reduce Ethernet port consumption on rack-level switches.

Ideal for

• GPU-accelerated AI and machine learning training racks requiring per-outlet power visibility and remote cycling of individual accelerator nodes without dispatching on-site technicians
• Hyperscale colocation deployments where per-tenant outlet-level energy metering and switching isolation are required for billing accuracy and SLA enforcement
• High-density virtualisation host clusters where sequenced power-on ordering prevents inrush current spikes and enables controlled boot sequences across blade and 1U server populations
• Edge data centres and remote colocation sites where zero-touch remote power management via RESTful API eliminates the need for local hands during fault recovery or scheduled maintenance windows
• Financial services trading infrastructure cabinets demanding sub-second outlet switching, continuous power quality monitoring, and full audit logging for compliance with operational risk frameworks
• Data centre consolidation projects integrating with DCIM platforms where granular outlet-level kWh data is required to accurately model PUE and support sustainability reporting obligations
