Vertiv Geist Switched Outlet-Level Monitoring rPDU 22.1kW 3-Phase

The Vertiv Geist Switched Outlet-Level Monitoring rPDU (VP8G30A0) is a high-density 3-phase rack power distribution unit delivering 22.1 kW of usable capacity, engineered for modern enterprise data centers operating high-draw compute infrastructure. Built on Vertiv's Geist platform, the unit combines switched outlet control with individual outlet-level current, voltage, and power metering, giving operations teams granular visibility and remote load management without requiring physical access to the rack. The intelligent monitoring architecture reports real-time power consumption per outlet, enabling precise capacity planning and rapid fault isolation across densely populated GPU and CPU server racks.

Each switched outlet can be independently powered on, off, or sequenced through the embedded web interface, SNMP v1/v2c/v3, Modbus TCP, or RESTful API, allowing integration into existing DCIM and building management platforms. The unit supports sequential outlet power-up to eliminate inrush current surges during rack restarts—a critical capability for racks housing multiple high-TDP accelerators or storage arrays. Environmental sensor ports allow attachment of Vertiv-compatible temperature and humidity probes, extending the monitoring footprint beyond electrical measurements.

Designed for deployment in high-density colocation suites, HPC clusters, and AI/ML training environments, the VP8G30A0 accepts a 3-phase input and distributes power across multiple outlet groups, supporting balanced phase loading. The unit mounts vertically in standard 0U rack configurations and includes a local LED display for immediate current and phase readings without requiring a network connection. Its combination of remote switching, per-outlet metering, and open protocol support positions it as a strategic infrastructure component for organizations managing power efficiency and uptime SLAs at scale.

Ideal for

• GPU cluster power management: Remote per-outlet switching and metering for dense NVIDIA or AMD GPU racks in AI/ML training environments, enabling precise power draw tracking per accelerator node
• High-density colocation: Tenant-level outlet isolation and independent metering support accurate billing verification and rapid remote power cycling without dispatching hands-on-site technicians
• HPC data center capacity planning: Real-time outlet-level kWh and current data feeds into DCIM platforms to validate power budgets and prevent circuit overloads across multi-rack HPC deployments
• Staged power sequencing: Sequential outlet power-up during planned maintenance or unplanned restarts limits inrush current across racks loaded with multiple high-TDP servers and storage controllers
• Data center infrastructure monitoring: Integration with SNMP-based NMS or Modbus TCP-enabled BMS platforms aggregates per-outlet power telemetry alongside environmental sensor data for unified facility oversight
• Remote hands reduction: IT operations teams perform outlet-level power cycles, load rebalancing, and fault isolation entirely over the network, reducing mean time to restore and on-site labor requirements
