GUDE Expert Power Control 8291-2 PDU plus 1-Year Power Cloud Licence

GS-82912 + CLOUD 1Y

The GUDE Expert Power Control 8291-2 is a versatile 21-way switched AC/DC PDU designed for professional IT, AV and industrial applications requiring flexible power distribution across mixed voltage environments. Supplied with a 1-year Power Cloud licence, it enables secure remote monitoring, scheduling and switching via cloud-based access. With support for both AC and DC loads, outlet-level metering for DC outputs, and precise energy monitoring across multiple units, it provides full transparency and control. Advanced protection features including eFuses on each DC output, integrated surge protection and intelligent automation make it ideal for complex and mission-critical installations.

Features & Benefits

  • Event and schedule controlled switching
  • Connection of AC and DC consumers with different voltages and connection types
  • Outlet-metered for all DC connectors
  • Precise current metering of up to 9 units and residual current
  • 2 connectors for plug-and-play sensors
  • Fast and easy installation
  • NTP function can be activated
  • Integrated overvoltage protection type 3
  • Each DC output is fused via an eFuse
  • Each power port can be switched via HTTP/S, Telnet, SSH, SNMP or command line interface, as well as via serial interface
  • 17 DC switchable power ports with 24 V, 12 V and 5 V (industrial clamp, USB A)
