Virtualization, cloud computing and high power computing are the biggest drivers for high-density PDUs,” explains Anderson Hungria, senior product manager of Power, Electronics and Software at CPI. With this in mind, Chatsworth Products (CPI) expanded its eConnect® line of intelligent PDUs to include high-density units in 50A and 60A 208V that meet power loads of up to 17kW per PDU. High-density eConnect PDUs with six built-in circuit breakers are also the answer to customers predicting two- to three-year power growth. Engineered to withstand the heat loads of any hot aisle environment, eConnect PDUs have the highest ambient temperature rating in the market (149°F/65°C). For this reason, they are an excellent power product for your aisle containment strategy, as they’re installed in the back of the cabinets behind hot air exhaust from equipment -- potentially the hottest part of every data center.  ![data center in the clouds resized 600](https://www.accu-tech.com/hs-fs/file-481126257-jpg/images/dc_clouds_small.jpg)   In short, when you’re optimizing airflow in your data center, you should also consider a PDU that will operate reliably and efficiently.
