Advanced HPC PDUs
Customisable Schleifenbauer PDUs for High-Performance Computing
Since 2008, Schleifenbauer has been producing advanced Power Distribution Units (PDUs).
PDU 5.0 is their next generation advanced PDU. Built in collaboration with over 40 Data Centre operators to address the specific needs of modern Data Centres.
PDU 5.0 boasts real-time tracking and advanced energy management features, offering greater scalability, integration, and security.
Why HPC PDUs are important in Data Centres
High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are reshaping Data Centre operations, increasing power and infrastructure demands to unprecedented levels. These environments demand high power density, real-time monitoring, and precision power management to adapt to continuously evolving workloads. Schleifenbauer answers these challenges with PDU 5.0, providing Meter PDUs, Monitored PDUs, Switched PDUs, or Managed PDUs that meet exact specifications and deliver a high-performance solution designed for next-generation computing.
When selecting an HPC PDU, consider these crucial points:
- Customisation: Design your PDUs to precisely meet current and future requirements. With strategically placed outlets for efficient cable management and incorporating custom load balancing and redundancy suitable for GPU-heavy environments.
- Instant Insights: Obtain instant insights into power consumption, energy efficiency, and environmental conditions, as PDU 5.0 live streams data from up to 100 PDUs on a single IP address to support AI and HPC environments.
- Accurate Power Management: Manage power rapidly in real time to optimise GPU/TPU workloads and immediately respond to power fluctuations.
- Scalability: Ensure your power solutions scale with your HPC and AI infrastructure needs while minimising network congestion.
- Intelligent Load Management: Manage fluctuating, intensive GPU and TPU computing power demands using PDU 5.0 and the complimentary EnerTree DCEM software, for optimal management.
- Security: Protect sensitive data processed by AI-driven workloads with PDU 5.0, which offers enterprise-level security standards including AES 256-bit encryption, Active Directory authentication, LDAP/S, SSH, and SSL/TLS 1.3.

Communication Modules
Hot swappable communication modules allow you to easily adapt to the evolving needs of Data Centres without experiencing operational downtime. With plug-n-play sensor capabilities, your PDU can support up to 32 sensors per unit, providing extensive environmental monitoring and management. Dual 1Gbps network connectivity, alongside dual Databus and dual USB on the Gateway and Controller modules, ensures you maintain reliable, high-speed connectivity within your network.
Gateway Module
The Gateway Module, designed to operate seamlessly with the EnerTree Platform, offers advanced energy management by centralising data from multiple PDUs. The intelligence level provided by the EnerTree Platform offers a robust solution for high-compute power monitoring applications. With a measurement refresh rate of once every second and support for up to 10,000 PDUs within the system, you can effectively improve efficiency and reduce costs by using less hardware within the PDU.
Controller Module
The Controller Module features embedded EnerTree Lite software with an internal Web GUI, offering you a more traditional form of power management. With a refresh rate of once every five seconds, it can support a maximum of 100 PDUs within the system. The module fully integrates with other PDU monitoring and management software systems, ensuring compatibility.
Daisy Chain Module
The Daisy Chain Module is a secure data communication module, which operates without an Ethernet port. It acts as a data relay module to enable PDU network expansion. It facilitates the creation of a ring topology and transmits data exclusively to a single Gateway or Controller Module.
