SwitchLOK Selected As Innovation Finalist for Data Center World’s Innovation Challenge

RALEIGH, N.C. – April 17, 2024 – Gateview Technologies, an industry-advancing creator of power distribution solutions for mission-critical applications, announces SwitchLOK an advanced switching technology that allows switching to be added and scaled when needed, was selected as an Innovation Finalist by Afcom’s innovation challenge panel.

SwitchLOK is a patented and advanced technology that eliminates in-rack PDU failures. PowerLOK Switched Ready Rack PDUs have relays removed from the rPDU to keep rPDU reliability high and maintain a slim profile. Switching cords are added only when and if needed. Adding PDU Switching Cords to PowerLOK is quick and easy. To join, simply depress PDU switching cord button for 2 seconds and release when green LED changes from fast to slow flashing. Select JOIN in the Manage SwitchLOK window of the software.

“With SwitchLOK you can build switching capability when you need it. SwitchLOK is scalable and the most reliable method for today’s switched PDU requirements. SwitchLOK completely eliminated in-rack PDU failures and wasted energy on unused receptacle relays. Simply add or remove switching cords to your Switched Ready PDU when needed.” noted Gateview CTO, Mark Germagian.

Utilizing a slim in-rack PDU profile: with switching integrated in the switching cords, PowerLOK Switched Ready PDUs have the same slim profile and high-receptacle density as monitored PDUs. SwitchLOK’s small form includes a velcro slot and strap for ease of placement in the rack.
