’s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, 14 November 2024 – Schleifenbauer is proud to introduce two groundbreaking solutions that will shape the future of datacenter energy management: the PDU 5.0 and EnerTree DCEM software. These innovations are designed to meet the growing demands of modern datacenters, offering advanced control, scalability, and security. Whether handling intensive workloads like artificial intelligence (AI) or high-performance computing (HPC), or enhancing overall operational efficiency, these solutions set a new benchmark for energy management in datacenters.

Key Highlights:

• Real-Time Data and Analysis: Access to real-time data on power consumption and environmental conditions, enabling immediate insights and optimization for planning and efficiency.
• Support for up to 32 Sensors: Monitor critical environmental factors such as temperature and humidity across multiple locations.
• Scalability and Simplified Management: Manage up to 100 PDUs via a single IP address using Daisy Chain technology, ensuring smooth scalability with minimal complexity.
• Modular Design: Easy upgrades and customization thanks to hot-swappable modules and seamless integration with existing infrastructures, including SNMP, MODBUS/TCP, and REST API support.
• Robust Security: Enhanced data protection with encryption, advanced access management, and SSL/TLS 1.3. The closed-loop communication from the Daisy Chain ensures no LAN access at the rack level, minimizing security risks.
• User-Friendly Interface: Quick monitoring with the LED Light Ring and simplified configuration via an NFC app on tablets or smartphones.

EnerTree DCEM Software: Powering Smarter Energy Management

• Enhanced Monitoring: Real-time tracking of PDUs, UPS systems, and cooling units, coupled with predictive analytics for proactive maintenance.
• Capacity Management: Improved Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and streamlined growth planning.
• Secure Monitoring: AES 256-bit encryption and Active Directory® integration for secure, reliable operations.

“These products represent a new era in datacenter energy management,” says Jos Janssen, Head of Sales & Marketing at Schleifenbauer. “Developed with direct input from 40 datacenter operators, the PDU 5.0 and EnerTree software offer solutions to the complex challenges faced by today’s datacenter operators, from AI and HPC to the evolving needs of infrastructure management. With these innovations, we are not only addressing today’s needs but also preparing datacenters for the future.”

Availability: The PDU 5.0 and EnerTree DCEM software will be available from January 2025. For more details, product specifications, and documentation, please visit: www.schleifenbauer.eu/en/pdu5
