The Spectrum Control DC SMARTstart is a power distribution and circuit protection unit designed to maximize network uptime and protect valuable client network equipment. The DC SMARTstart has specialized electronic circuit breakers which can trip up to 10X faster than conventional circuit breakers. The unit also features integral circuitry to provide LVD and OVD protection automatically.
The DC SMARTstart features the ability to reset nuisance circuit breaker trips that result from short surges or brief computational loads. The DC SMARTstart PDU will control and monitor two sets of six independent loads. Each output channel is configured at the factory. Refer to the electrical ratings table for respective trip currents or the Configure It tool.
The SMARTstart PDU features a visual basic (VB) Interface to program the power up/down sequence and power up/down delays for each channel, along with the LVD and OVD thresholds. There are remote operated circuit breakers (ROCB) that provide primary current protection to the PDU and down stream equipment controlled by the PDU. The ROCB’s are UL Listed primary circuit protection to the six outputs on side A and B.

Our newest high current direct feed version provides easy power cycling to DC powered routers/switches, DSLAMS and other enterprise related equipment via remote activated circuit breakers rated up to 100 Amps.
The DC SMARTstart PDU is capable of monitoring line voltage, circuit breaker status and internal temperature to provide the required power and circuit protection to connected equipment.
Operational control is performed either manually by front panel push buttons or remotely through either an RS-232 serial console port 10/100 BASE-T or LAN UDP socket or telnet session.
The DC SMARTstart is the ideal DC power distribution & circuit protection solution for the Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs), Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers (ILECs), XDSL applications & CATV enterprises.
