Modular power just grew up. The Symmetra PX 250/500 fits anywhere, with no rear access required. Scalable in 25kW increments, it boasts a 96% efficiency rating. (Shown in Line up and Match configuration for 500kW and 6 minutes runtime.) Grow in bigger increments with the Symmetra® PX 250/500. Right-sized, modular power – the key to virtualizing with true efficiency! If you haven’t already virtualized your servers, you’re probably seriously considering it. What you may not know about virtualization is this: modular power is critical to maximizing the gains made through virtualization – otherwise, oversized power simply negates the efficiency advances you’ve made. Now, the modular power you know from our acclaimed Symmetra PX 40/80 is more flexible than ever with the all-new Symmetra PX 250/500. Featuring modular power in larger increments of 25kW up to 500kW, it configures in parallel up to 2 MW, for enterprises with consolidated servers that are experiencing growth on a larger scale.

Improve your efficiency by avoiding oversizing and by downsizing at the time of IT consolidation with our modular scalable architecture. power exible and scalable original load virtualized load Scale up The PDU – modular power’s newest frontier. In addition to the Symmetra PX 250/500, we also introduce the first ever fully modular PDU. Our new Modular Power Distribution technology brings the right-sized scalability and flexibility you need when virtualizing to the power distribution unit – right down to the rack level. Scaling up or down no longer means powering down – or attempting to forecast future use. Scale down Downsize, but expect re-growth Modular power – for maximizing savings from virtualization. Start saving energy today by virtualizing – but not without these flexible advances in modular power – the Symmetra PX 250/500 and APC’s first ever Modular Power Distribution Unit. APC is proud to be a member of the green grid. The following have been tested and work best with InfraStruXure Solutions. Modular PDU • Doubles the power in half the ﬂoor space • 60% smaller, so material costs are reduced • Built in advanced alarms and notiﬁcation An Improved Architecture for High-Efficiency, High Density Data Centers Distribution Module • Plugs directly into RPP and PDU products • Hot-swappable and safe • Available in single and 3-phase High Ef ciency 415V • 415V of power means higher power density in a smaller footprint • Step down and conversion rates provide more power by routing at higher voltage • 288kW now ﬁts in 12”!
