Vertiv™ Geist™ Switched rack PDUs (rPDU) provide a comprehensive view of critical IT equipment power usage, both at the rack and via remote access with the added ability to remotely turn on, turn off, or reboot power at each outlet. Switched rPDUs are available in a variety of electrical and receptacle configurations. Switched rPDUs meet all compliance requirements, and every unit is 100% tested for reliability and functionality.
Warranty : Vertiv™ Geist™ Switched rPDUs come with a standard three-year warranty that is automatically extended to five years, if the product is registered within 120 days of purchase.- Product Overview

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q
- What type of readings does the Switched Upgradeable rPDU provide?
- A
- The Monitored Upgradeable rPDU provides Input Power Monitoring (A, V, VA, kWh, PF) and Circuit Monitoring (A) where applicable determined by the base rPDU model.
- Q
- Do the Switched rPDUs monitor power usage at the input and circuit level?
- A
- Yes, the Switched rPDUs monitor and display the input/circuit power readings for the rPDU where applicable determined by the base rPDU model.
- Q
- What is the benefit to monitoring at the outlet level?
- A
- Monitoring at the outlet level allows you to pinpoint system-critical failures and take preventative measures. For example, a gradual rise in a server’s current draw over time might indicate a failing power supply. Outlet level monitoring can also track where power is being used for departmentalized power billing in large companies.
- Q
- What is the accuracy rating of the power readings at the outlet?
- A
- Outlet Power Measurements Compliant with ANSI C12.1 and IEC 62053-21 at 1% Accuracy Class Requirements.
- Q
- How many and what type of environmental sensors can be connected to a Switched rPDU?
- A
- Up to 16 external sensors can be connected to the Switched rPDUs. These sensors can include: Temperature, Temp/Humidity, Flood, Smoke, Door Position and more.
