Optional Cord Retention Procedure:
Use the included C14 sleeves to secure
plugs to receptacles. Attach the sleeve to
the plug, making sure that the pull tabs
remain outside the plug and that the
A
fit is secure. To unplug equipment
properly, use the pull tabs to remove the
plug and sleeve from the receptacle.
Networking the PDU
Note: The MAC address of the PDU (a 12-digit string in this format: 000667xxxxxx) is printed on a label attached to the PDU
enclosure. The MAC address is also printed on a label attached to the internal network card.
If your network's DHCP server will assign a dynamic IP address to the PDU automatically, go to
Step
. If you will assign a static IP address to the PDU manually, go to Step
3-1
uncertain which method to use, contact your network administrator for assistance before
continuing the installation process.
Dynamic IP Address Assignment
3-1
Connect PDU to Network: While the
PDU is powered, connect a standard
Ethernet patch cable to the RJ-45
Ethernet port
Note: This port is not compatible with PoE (Power over
Ethernet) applications.
The PDU will attempt to obtain an IP
address via DHCP . This may take as long
as several minutes, depending on your
network environment.
3-2
Discover IP Address: Contact your network administrator to determine which dynamic IP
address has been assigned to the PDU by the DHCP server. The PDU can be identified on
the DHCP server by referring to its MAC address. (The MAC address is a 12-digit string in
this format: 000667xxxxxx. Refer to the MAC address label attached to the PDU.) You may
wish to request a long-term lease period for the IP address, depending on your application.
After you have discovered the IP address, skip Steps
Step

Static IP Address Assignment
4-1
Determine IP Information: Before assigning a static IP address, you'll need to know the IP
address, gateway address and subnet mask. If you do not have this information, contact
your network administrator for assistance.
