PDU for Professional AV Systems

DVIGear has expanded its line of power management equipment with the DVI-7520-PDU, a robust, rack-mountable power distribution unit (PDU). Designed to satisfy the rigorous requirements of professional AV systems, the DVI-7520-PDU provides an economical and versatile power distribution solution for a wide range of professional applications.

Many AV products require the use of external ac power supply units (PSUs) to power their internal electronic circuitry. These external PSUs can pose a major challenge to system designers who must balance complex energy demands with a limited number of AC outlets as well as limited space within AV equipment racks. By providing centralized power distribution to multiple devices, the DVI-7520-PDU simplifies AV system design, integration, and support.

DVIGear's DVI-7520-PDU offers an MTBF of greater than 220,000 hours. The DVI-7520-PDU provides +12 Vdc power on 8x outputs, each rated for 24W. The unit has an overall power reserve of 200W. It accepts ac line voltages auto-ranging from 88- to 264-Vac and ac line frequencies from 47-63 Hz. All outputs include extensive protection against overload, over-voltage and over-temperature. The DVI-7520-PDU is housed in a rugged 1U half-rack mountable enclosure, while including versatile and reliable Phoenix connectors to allow for universal connections to various products that require +12Vdc power. These features allow system designers and facility managers to optimize power management through more efficient use of rack space. This makes it suited for a wide range of professional applications such as rental and staging events, conference and training rooms, boardrooms, auditoriums, hotels, and churches.

The DVI-7520-PDU represents a high value addition to DVIGear's existing selection of power management equipment (DVI-7200 Series). Engineered from the ground up for 24/7 mission critical applications, the DVI-7520-PDU and DVI-7200 Series together provide support for 5V and 12V products, accommodating from 8 up to 20 outputs. The DVI-7520-PDU is also ideally suited for use with DVIGear's award winning DVI-7520/25 HDBaseT Extenders and DisplayNetâ„¢ DN-100 Transmitter and Receiver. DVIGear's DVI-7520-PDU has a suggested list price of $450, includes a 3-year warranty, and is available for immediate delivery.
