Specifications and feature availability vary by model and configuration. Final ratings, interfaces, accuracy class, transfer performance and compliance scope are confirmed in the approved product datasheet or project specification.
Technical architecture
Designed as part of the power chain.
Granular DC visibility
Feed and outlet telemetry helps operators identify localised loading, compare redundant feeds and plan capacity.
Protection architecture
Branch protection, alarm reporting and service-isolation choices are selected around the required current and fault-management strategy.
Mechanical integration
Compact horizontal or zero-U vertical configurations can be adapted to the cabinet, busbar and connector ecosystem.
Applications

Deployment details are aligned to the load profile, redundancy plan, rack layout, monitoring architecture and target market.
Telecom network infrastructure
AI and accelerated-compute clusters
DC-powered server platforms
High-current laboratory and validation racks
DC PDU technology platform
High-current DC distribution with measurement, control and automation.
Zentronics DC PDUs are designed for telecom, data-centre, HPC, AI, laboratory and product-validation environments that require protected DC distribution with clear operational visibility.
The portfolio includes basic, metered and intelligent configurations in vertical and horizontal formats. Application-specific architectures can support -48 VDC systems, dual feeds, high-current busbars, individual branches and customer-selected connector or harness arrangements.
Applicable intelligent DC PDUs measure DC voltage, DC current and DC power. Cumulative energy and time-series measurements can be retained and exported as CSV data within supported configurations, giving operators and test teams a practical record for analysis and troubleshooting.
Linux-based control supports Ethernet and serial connectivity, including RS-232 or RS-485 according to the selected design. Dedicated environmental interfaces and USB expansion can connect temperature and humidity sensors, storage devices and application-specific peripherals, including USB cameras where the approved configuration supports them.
Supported interfaces allow C and Python applications to automate switching, collect telemetry, coordinate test sequences and integrate the PDU into continuous-validation environments.
Engineering specification guide
Specify DC distribution as a complete power path.
| Design area | Available engineering scope | Selection considerations |
|---|---|---|
| DC source | -48 VDC and application-specific DC systems | Normal operating window, polarity, earthing and source fault level |
| Input and busbar | Single or dual feed; high-current conductors and bus structures | Maximum continuous current, redundancy and thermal rise |
| Branch protection | Individually protected DC outputs with project-selected ratings | Load type, inrush, interruption method and coordination |
| Measurement | DC voltage, current, power, energy and historical data options | Measurement points, accuracy, interval, storage and export |
| Control and automation | Remote switching, sequencing, alarms and C/Python integration on applicable models | Test workflow, safety interlocks and recovery behaviour |
| Connectivity | Ethernet, RS-232/RS-485, USB and sensor interfaces | Network design, peripheral support and protocol requirements |
DC voltage range, current rating, connector system, protection, telemetry, software interfaces and certification scope are confirmed for each approved model or custom project.
