Intelligent Rack-Level Power Management
Managing power at the rack level is critical for IT, security, and edge environments. Xtreme Power’s J90 UPS with remote outlet control and Smart PDU (SPDU) deliver the perfect combination of remote switching UPS and outlet-level PDU control. Together, they enable organizations to monitor, reboot, and sequence power to connected devices—maximizing uptime and efficiency.
Why Remote Switching is Essential
- Outlet-Level Monitoring UPS & PDU – Track power usage and outlet status to optimize load and capacity.
- Remote Reboot UPS & PDU – Power cycle locked-up devices from anywhere, without site visits.
- Rack PDU with Remote Reboot – Restore network switches, firewalls, or servers instantly via web or SNMP interface.
- Power Sequencing PDU – Stagger equipment startup to minimize inrush current and protect sensitive devices.
- Secure Power Access – Prevent unauthorized device provisioning and ensure only approved systems consume power.

Which One Do I Need?
Choosing between a remote switching UPS and a Smart PDU (SPDU) depends on your application:
- Choose the J90 UPS with Remote Outlet Control if:
- You need backup power plus outlet control in a single device.
- Your equipment is in a high-temperature environment (up to 50°C).
- You want a long-life lithium UPS with 10-year battery design.
- You need remote reboot capability for servers, firewalls, or PoE switches.
- You want to add an optional temperature/humidity sensor for environmental monitoring.
- Choose the SPDU Smart Power Distribution Unit if:
- You already have a UPS but need rack PDU + remote outlet control.
- You want per-outlet monitoring and reboot functionality.
- Your deployment requires power sequencing to protect sensitive devices.
- You’re outfitting a data center, IDF closet, or edge rack with managed power distribution.
- Your equipment is in a high-temperature environment (up to 50°C).
In many racks, both are deployed together:
The J90 Remote Switching UPS ensures backup power, while the SPDU Smart PDU provides detailed outlet-level monitoring and control—a powerful combination for uptime and efficiency.
