Unit Description

5.Network Port: An RJ45 Ethernet port for connection to your 100Base-T, TCP/IP network. Note that the MPC features a default IP address (192.168.168.168). This allows you to connect to the unit without first assigning an IP address. Note that the Network Port also includes two, small LED indicators for Link and Data Activity. For more information on Network Port configuration, please refer to Section 5.9.

6.Console Port: A DB9, RS232 serial port (DTE), which can be used for connection to a local terminal or external modem, as described in Section 4. For a description of the Console Port interface, please refer to Appendix B.1.

7.Power Circuit A - Digital Display: An LED digital readout, which can be used to show Amps, Kilowatts, Volts or Temperature for Power Circuit A. Note that the Display Selection Button (Item 3) is used to determine which of these values will appear on the digital display.

Note: Some MPC models include only one power circuit. Accordingly, MPC models that include only one power circuit, the unit will also have only one digital display.

8.Power Circuit B - Digital Display: Same as Item 7 above, except displays values for Power Circuit B. MPC Models that include only one power circuit will also have only one digital display.

9.Power Circuit A - Switched Outlets and Indicator Lights: AC Outlets that can be switched On, Off or rebooted in response to user commands. Note that each outlet includes an LED Indicator, which lights when power is applied to the outlet.

Notes:

•Some MPC models include only one power circuit.

•Please refer to the table in Section 1 or Section 3 for power ratings for your specific MPC model.

10.Power Circuit B - Switched Outlets and Indicator Lights: Same as Item 9 above, except outlets and LED indicators are for Power Circuit B. Note that some MPC models include only one power circuit.

11.Circuit Breaker(s): Some MPC models include two power circuits, with two breakers for each circuit, and other MPC models include only one power circuit with two circuit breakers. For a description of the power rating for your specific MPC model, please refer to the table in Section 1 or Section 3.

12.Unit Bottom Plate: In all models except MPC-20V-1 and MPC-20V-2, the power inlets are located on the bottom plate of the unit. In MPC-20V-1 and MPC-20V-2 models, the power inlets are located at the bottom of the front panel.

The Western Telematic MPC series is renowned for its robust and versatile remote power management solutions. Among its offerings, the MPC-20VS16-3, MPC-20VD16-3, MPC-20VD20-2, MPC-20VS20-1, and MPC-20VS20-2 stand out as exceptional products tailored to meet the demands of modern telecommunications and data center environments.

One of the key features across this series is the ability to monitor and control up to 20 power outlets, which allows for efficient resource management and reduces downtime. Each model in the series accommodates various configurations, including both switched and non-switched outlets. This flexibility makes it easier for operators to manage power distribution according to their specific needs.

The integration of real-time monitoring capabilities is another highlight of the MPC series. Users can track power consumption, voltage, and current for each outlet, enabling better decision-making to optimize energy usage. This feature contributes significantly to the overall efficiency of operations, ensuring that resources are utilized effectively.

Communication is seamless with the Western Telematic MPC series, as these models are equipped with multiple network connectivity options. They support both SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) and Telnet, facilitating easy integration with existing network management systems. Additionally, the devices can send alerts and notifications via email or SMS, keeping operators informed about any changes in power status or potential issues.

The MPC models are designed with redundancy and reliability in mind. They come equipped with advanced surge protection, ensuring sensitive equipment remains safe from power spikes. The rugged construction of the units ensures they can withstand the rigors of data center environments, with an emphasis on heat dissipation and airflow management.

Security features are also a priority. The MPC series includes user authentication and access control to prevent unauthorized users from manipulating power settings. The ability to set user permissions ensures that only designated personnel can operate sensitive components, enhancing operational security.

Energy efficiency is a guiding principle in the design of the MPC series. By providing tools for monitoring and controlling power usage, these devices contribute to a reduction in energy costs, aligning with sustainability goals sought by modern enterprises.

In conclusion, the Western Telematic MPC-20VS16-3, MPC-20VD16-3, MPC-20VD20-2, MPC-20VS20-1, and MPC-20VS20-2 are exemplary models in the field of remote power management. With features such as comprehensive outlet control, real-time monitoring, robust communication options, security protocols, and a focus on energy efficiency, these units are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of the telecommunications and data center sectors. By implementing these advanced technologies, operators can enhance their operational capabilities while also contributing to long-term sustainability.
