You could use dual vertical PDU's with serial management connected to a 1u serial console / KVM solution. There are a few vendors working on PDU's with IP / SNMP based management solutions but I don't think they have been introduced into the marketplace. Something like this could work: http://www.servertech.com/prod/remote%20power/rpm_ptxl_index.html It looks like the vertical version has a daughter mod that will allow remote management. Maximum of 32 AC interfaces per cab.
32 AC interfaces sounds like a pretty bad idea for the common 20A feeds available at most colos, and not smart for 40 1U servers even with 30A feeds. I find the BayTech RPC27 to be a reasonable solution, using 2x for a rack full of 1U's. If you get custom length power cables made, and interspace power connections from multiple servers, the logistics can be decent too. It's unfortunate that BayTech's pinout for serial console stuff is only slightly less evil than satan, but their power systems are nice. -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras () e-gerbil net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC)
