SCHLEIFENBAUER DATABUS: WHAT IS IT?
The intelligence of Schleifenbauer PDUs (and DPM
energy meters) makes it possible to read and manage
devices remotely over IP. You can for example enter the
databus via the web interface, MODBUS and SNMP.
There are all kinds of possibilities using the databus:
whatever configuration you want to build, with the
databus it is possible.
Databus and power distribution are two separate
functions of the Schleifenbauer PDU. This means that all
actions done via the databus do NOT interfere the
distribution of power to the IT equipment in the racks.
Advantages of the databus:
● easy to build: just pick a PDU and connect it to
your LAN, daisy chain the rest of the PDUs and
you have made a databus
● remote updating of the firmware
Explanation of the figure:
● the PDU/DPM-energy meter that is connected
to the LAN must be in “BRIDGE” mode; this is
the MASTER device
● all “daisy chained” devices must be in
“HYBRID” mode; these are the followers: the
BRIDGED devices
