Featuring 14 individually fused outputs in a compact 19” x 1RU form factor, dual inputs with automatic change-over on input supply loss, and a variety of local and remote control, monitoring and alarm options TSL’s intelligent power distribution units provide a robust and reliable power source, and act to minimise system downtime through the quick identification of problems.
With a secure Web interface or SNMP remote management, individual outlets can be switched off from any location to isolate or reboot failed equipment, and huge savings in energy costs can also be made by selectively turning off equipment when not required, for instance, during dark studio periods.
With industry-standard SNMP MIBs, the units support any Data Centre Infrastructure Management monitoring software including TSL’s own DCIM product Insite, offering comprehensive dashboards that deliver an intuitive view of the system status.
Additional functions also protect the downstream equipment during power up, for example, sequential start and programmable delayed start by outlet.
This version provides on-board changeover capabilities that will swap the power supply to the backup if the original fails.
TSL’s commitment to supporting emerging IP standards such as AES-67, SMPTE 2022-6 and SMPTE 2110 gave us the confidence we needed in the PAM2-IP to provide the audio monitoring we required at RTL City. Additionally, knowing that we could deploy the PAM2-IP in our new all-IP infrastructure without being forced to change our operational workflows was fundamental to our purchase decision.
