Eaton ePDU G4 Rack PDUs: Metered, Switched, and High-Density
Eaton ePDU G4 rack PDUs distribute power to data center racks in basic, metered-input, metered-outlet, managed (switched), high-density, universal-input, and ATS versions, in single-phase and three-phase from 16 to 60A. Features include tool-less mounting, IEC outlet grips, daisy-chaining under one IP, and per-outlet metering and control. Comp-Utility, a long-standing Eaton distribution partner, specs and deploys ePDU G4 across Central Texas.

Rack Power From Basic to High-Density Intelligence
The ePDU G4 family scales from reliable basic distribution to managed units with per-outlet metering and remote switching, and high-density units engineered for dense, high-power racks.
Practical features like tool-less mounting, color-coded sections, IEC outlet grips that prevent accidental disconnection, and daisy-chaining up to eight units under one IP simplify deployment and management.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of Eaton ePDU G4 rack PDUs are available?
The ePDU G4 family includes basic, metered-input, metered-outlet, managed (switched), high-density, universal-input, and ATS rack PDUs, in single-phase and three-phase from 16 to 60A. This range covers everything from simple distribution to per-outlet metering and remote control. Comp-Utility helps you select the right type for each rack.
What is the ePDU G4 HD for high-density racks?
The ePDU G4 HD is a high-density intelligent PDU engineered for dense, high-power racks, with high outlet counts, alternating-phase layout to simplify load balancing, and a color LCD. It suits high-density and AI/GPU deployments where rack power demand is high. Comp-Utility specifies HD units where rack density requires them.
What does daisy-chaining ePDUs accomplish?
Metered ePDU G4 units can daisy-chain up to eight PDUs under a single IP address, reducing the number of network ports and management points required. This lowers deployment cost and simplifies monitoring across many racks. Comp-Utility configures daisy-chaining as part of an efficient rack power deployment.
What is an ATS rack PDU?
An ATS (automatic transfer switch) rack PDU has two power inlets and automatically transfers between sources, giving single-corded equipment the resilience of dual A/B feeds. It is useful where equipment has only one power supply but the facility provides redundant power paths. Comp-Utility deploys ATS PDUs to extend redundancy to single-corded gear.
What is the difference between metered and managed ePDUs?
Metered ePDUs measure power at the inlet or per outlet for load balancing and capacity planning, while managed (switched) ePDUs add remote on/off control and metering of individual outlets, enabling remote reboot and lights-out management. Comp-Utility recommends the level of intelligence each rack actually needs.
Do ePDU G4 units integrate with DCIM?
Yes. Intelligent ePDU G4 units report data over the network and integrate with DCIM platforms for per-rack and per-outlet monitoring, capacity planning, and alerting. Comp-Utility configures the PDUs and integrates them into your monitoring environment so you have visibility across the data center floor.
How do IEC outlet grips help?
IEC outlet grips (locking retention) hold power cords firmly in the PDU outlets, preventing accidental disconnection from vibration or cable movement, which is a common cause of avoidable outages. This is a small but meaningful reliability feature in dense racks. Comp-Utility specifies outlet types and retention to match your equipment.
