TRENDnet TPI-06 6-Outlet Managed Rackmount PDU with Gigabit Ethernet

The TRENDnet TPI-06 6-Outlet Managed Rackmount Power Distribution Unit provides centralized power distribution, remote outlet control, and energy monitoring for network racks, server rooms, and business IT environments.

Featuring six individually managed NEMA 5-15R power outlets and one additional bypass outlet, the TPI-06 allows administrators to control connected equipment independently. The bypass outlet remains available as an always-on power connection, while the six managed outlets can be switched on or off remotely.

The integrated Gigabit Ethernet port connects the PDU to the network, enabling local management and remote monitoring. Administrators can use TRENDnet Hive cloud management to control outlets, configure automatic power schedules, monitor energy consumption, and manage multiple compatible devices. Hive is a subscription-based service, and additional fees may apply.

The TPI-06 also supports automatic outlet reboot settings based on network connectivity checks. This feature can help recover unresponsive connected equipment by cycling power automatically. Custom power-on and power-off delays provide additional flexibility when coordinating equipment startup and shutdown sequences.

For power monitoring, the management dashboard provides per-outlet energy usage information. Email notifications help administrators stay informed about supported events, including voltage, overload breaker, and host timeout conditions.

Designed for professional IT installations, the TPI-06 features a fanless metal rackmount enclosure with a standard 1U, 19-inch form factor. Surge protection and AC filtering provide additional power protection for connected electronics.

The TRENDnet TPI-06 is a practical solution for businesses and IT administrators who need remotely manageable power distribution, outlet-level control, and centralized monitoring in a rackmount installation.
