Emerson Intros Liebert MP Advanced Power Strips

January 10, 2005 by Jeff Shepard

Emerson Network Power, a business of Emerson (St. Louis, MO), released the Liebert MP Advanced Power Strips, a family of power distribution solutions that bring advanced control and visibility to rack-level power distribution. The Liebert MP Advanced Power Strips are available in multiple configurations that provide a choice of capacities, number of receptacles, and monitoring and control capabilities to meet the power management requirements of any rack-mounted equipment.

The MP Advanced Power Strips internally connect output receptacles to the power bus via PCB design, providing enhanced reliability compared to systems that use "punch-down" connections. Multiple power strips can also be monitored and controlled using a single IP address, eliminating the need to set up and maintain a separate address for each power strip.

Both the Liebert MP-M and Liebert MP-C systems are available in 1U rack-mount and zero-U vertical-mount configurations with 15 A, 20 A and 30 A capacities that support 120 Vac or 208 Vac devices. Three-phase input models are also available.
