Eaton Managed ePDU
------------------

Managed ePDUs have unprecedented management and monitoring capabilities
and enable your energy consumption management to the individual server
level. You can even monitor your consumption down to the individual
outlet level to gain a full understanding of your data centre.

Eaton Advanced Monitored ePDU
-----------------------------

Advanced monitored ePDUs offer customers the ability to remotely monitor
the current draw of each outlet over an Ethernet connection. Advanced
monitored ePDUs allow the user to collect the information from
individual outlets, and collate the information from thousands of ePDUs
in one location through Eaton Intelligent Power Manager software or SNMP
software. Advanced Monitored ePDUs also include an easy-read digital
ammeter for local provisioning and load balancing of servers.

Not using either myself, but we have an Eaton UPS that's good solid
quality, and a Eaton FlexPDU that also looks solid.
