The Extron IPL EXP PDU4H is a control system power expansion interface that provides centralized power management for small to medium sized AV systems. It delivers the ability to control individual AC outputs remotely, and allows for aggregate current sensing. The IPL EXP PDU4H is Ethernet enabled and features four AC outputs, four override input ports, and a relay for additional system support. It is designed to be used with an IPCP Pro xi Series control processor for secure, encrypted power control of attached devices. It can also operate independently using a secure Extron API, enabling seamless integration for specialized applications. The IPL EXP PDU4H is housed in a compact 1U half rack enclosure that offers a broad variety of mounting options.
