Pakedge P20 - 20 Port Power Distribution Unit The Pakedge P20 Power Distribution Unit (PDU) offers flexible, autonomous power management with 20 individually controllable ports, ideal for high-performance AV and network installations. It features self-healing and timer modes to ensure reliable device operation and scheduled power control. Key Features Two autonomous operating modes: Self Healing Mode and Timer Mode for maximum flexibility Self Healing Mode automatically reboots frozen or non-responsive devices via Auto Ping every 15 seconds Timer Mode enables scheduled power on/off events for devices based on customised calendars On-demand manual control via email, Telnet, or web browser interface Comprehensive browser-based management menu with CLI access through console port Multiple user management with Admin, User, and Guest profiles for secure access Integration with Pakedge BakPak Cloud Management System for remote monitoring and control Advanced features when cloud-managed: PDU Virtualization, Remote Port-by-Port Power Control, Group Power Management Connect+ Platform Certified for seamless integration with other Pakedge devices Power Protection Ready design, compatible with high-end UPS systems; dual input power with included Y-cable Supports protocols: ICMP, IP, TCP/UDP, DHCP, Telnet, DNS, POP3, SMTP, SNMP, HTTP/HTTPS Designed for vertical rack mounting inside most 40U AV racks 3-year warranty included Operating Modes Self Healing Mode This mode repairs frozen or non-responsive devices by pinging each power-managed device every 15 seconds. If no response is received after multiple attempts, the PDU power cycles the outlet to restart the device. Controlled startup sequences prevent power flooding and ensure dependent devices reboot in the correct order, ideal for modem-router-switch setups. Timer Mode Timer Mode allows devices to follow an operational schedule autonomously. Power events such as resets or shutdowns can be scheduled—for example, resetting a touch panel every 24 hours or turning off wireless access points after office hours. Management and Configuration The PDU’s management menu is accessible via web browser, with CLI access through the console port. Configuration areas include: Self Healing Mode settings (device management, auto ping, reboot parameters) Timer Mode scheduling and parameters System configuration (access control, Telnet, SNMP) User account management (up to 20 users with different permission levels) Serial port setup for Telnet sessions Network integration and setup Self Healing Mode Outlet Settings Port name for device identification On/off status after power cycling Permission management for up to 8 administrators Auto Ping activation and reboot settings Ping IP address configuration Power On Delay to ensure safe startup sequencing Email notifications for power cycle events Timer Mode Outlet Settings Enable/disable timer mode per outlet Start time and date for power events Timer period between events Loop count for repeated events Toggle duration between power events User Profiles Admin: Manage user accounts, system settings, and override controls User: Modify port settings with permission and system configurations Guest: View system settings and operate unreserved outlets BakPak Cloud Management Integration When integrated with the Pakedge BakPak Cloud Management System, the P20 enables: PDU Virtualization: Group ports across PDUs and PoE switches into virtual units for unified control Remote Port-by-Port Power Control from any internet-connected device Group Power Management with scheduled automation across multiple PDUs Seamless integration within the Pakedge Connect+ Platform for enhanced device intelligence and automation Power Protection Ready Design The Pakedge P20 is designed for integration with high-performance UPS systems, excluding surge suppression to avoid conflicts and ensure effective power protection. Dual input power allows connection to two separate circuits, preventing overloads. A Y-cable is included for single outlet power connection when needed.
