MGE Office Protection Systems Introduces Pulsar MX Frame

Industrys Most Innovative Scalable Power Protection Solution

MGE Office Protection Systems  a world leader in providing end-to-end power protection systems for todays power hungry computing, IT and industrial applications today announced its new Pulsar MX Frame that accommodates MGEs new Pulsar MX 5000 RT power and battery modules that give users a true modular and scalable power protection solution. This complete power solution was demonstrated during Interop in Las Vegas

Overview top five Bullet points

 Future proofing with modularity with no upfront price premium
 Dynamic redundancy
 Compactness and ability to rack mount the frame
 Versatile output sockets, mixture of 10amp, 16amp and hardwired output
 Flexible Power Source, 3phase or single phase as standard

As small and mid-size companies grow, so do their power requirements to protect additional servers, blades and telecommunication systems. To meet this need, MGE Office Protection Systems has designed the Pulsar MX 5000 RT power and battery modules and Pulsar MX Frame that is a fully scalable solution that can grow as customers power needs increase. Designed to deliver business continuity 7X24, the Pulsar MX uses a modular, redundant architecture that can scale power and runtime as demand increases or when higher levels of availability are required all in a compact and affordable system.

When the Pulsar MX on-line double-conversion power modules are connected in parallel within the new Pulsar MX Frame, the power can be readily scaled from 5 kVA to 10, 15 (with redundancy) or 20 kVA power levels without disrupting connected equipment all within the Pulsar MXs compact 16U (28 inch) frame. With up to 18 kW, this scalable solution provides the highest power density in the industry and is a perfect match for a rack fully populated with blade servers. For the first time, the same power and battery sub-modules can be used for both the standalone UPS and the modular chassis, which significantly reduces the entry cost to scalability. Through this innovative approach, users can decide to acquire a cost-competitive Pulsar MX 5000 RT, and then migrate to a fully scalable, redundant solution using the Pulsar MX Frame while still using the original power and battery sub-modules of the original 5 kVA standalone UPS.

Using only 3U (5.25 inches) for the combination of power and battery sub-modules, the 5 kVA compact 3U rackmount/tower units feature hot-swappable battery and power sub-modules, auto battery-test, switched outlets, multilingual LCD display and intuitive power management software which is compatible with all of the popular operating systems including Microsofts Vista. To prolong battery life, the Pulsar MX features a wide input voltage and frequency range to avoid using the batteries unnecessarily. For extended backup time, external battery modules can quickly be added. If a power module should fail, the system will not be affected due to the systems built-in redundancy. For high-density rack environments, the 15 and 20 kVA models can be used as stand alone or integrated into a standard 19 rack.

Pulsar MX Frame boasts two communication slots for versatile, redundant network integration. MGE Office Protection Systems extensive power management offering is a perfect match for the Pulsar MX Frame, providing coverage for most environments found in high-density computing like Linux or VMware as well as the ability to dynamically manage redundancy at the protected server level.
