Initial Setup

Overview

Our power distribution equipment (aka power strips) is manufactured by Server Technology, and we are using their smart, switched CDU's.    We use the CW and CX-24V Sentry Switched CDU's which have a single NEMA L6-30 plug, and  24 IEC c13 outlets.

There are two different units, one is a master (CW) and includes a mini CPU allowing external ssh and SNMP polling, and the slave (CX) connects to the master through a custom console connection. 

The pricing and details for the systems are as follows: 

 part number Description Aprox. Price
 CW-24V2-L30M Switched CDU, 0U, 24 x IEC C13 Outlets, 3 x LED amp meters, 208V 30A input w/ L6-30P connector & cord, 10ft (3m), (2) Temperature/Humidity Sensor Capable, with retractable fuses $ 800
 CX-24V2-L30M Switched CDU (Expansion Unit), 0U, 24 x IEC C13 Outlets, LED amp meter, 208V 30A input w/ L6-30P connector & cord, 10ft (3m), with retractable fuses $ 715

Support: 

Servertech's equipment is supported based on the equipment's serial number.  There is no support contract for hardware replacements, but they have staff available for technical support, and that support is for the life of the product.
