Chatsworth, Monday, 7 July 2025.
Chatsworth Products, Inc. has unveiled new eConnect PDUs with QuadLock outlets to enhance flexibility and reliability, supporting high-power needs in Europe’s evolving ICT infrastructure.
Flexibility and Innovation in Power Management
The eConnect PDUs from Chatsworth Products, Inc. (CPI) have made notable advancements with the introduction of QuadLock outlets. These outlets incorporate four different outlet types—C13, C15, C19, and C21—in one compact yet scalable unit, facilitating improved port configurations and simplified load balancing. This versatility addresses the pressing need for infrastructure flexibility to accommodate the rapid technological changes, such as the integration of GPU and AI workloads in data centers, underlining the importance of power reliability [1].
Technical Specifications and Capabilities
The new eConnect PDUs can support configurations up to 57.5 kW per cabinet, providing substantial power capacity to meet high-demand applications. The PDUs are capable of handling up to 100-ampere inputs, aligning with the requirements of modern data centers managing AI and data-intensive processes. This positions the eConnect series as a significant upgrade for ICT infrastructures needing efficient power distribution across expansive networks [2]. Furthermore, the integration with existing CPI cabinet systems enhances deployment speed and reduces setup complexities [1].
Comparative Analysis with Similar Products
Compared to market peers, the eConnect PDUs with QuadLock offer superior temperature resilience, enduring up to 65°C to ensure capability within hot aisle environments. This high threshold is vital in maintaining reliability under heavy operational loads. Additionally, the innovative Secure Array® feature reduces network costs, allowing a single IP address to control up to 48 PDUs, which minimizes complexity and maximizes efficiency within network infrastructures [3].
