Powering Your Data Center’s White Space

AI and high-performance computing are reshaping data center design. Power demands are surging, and design engineers are increasing rack density in response.

Anderson Power brings decades of experience to help you deliver more power while saving space over traditional connectors. We design compact, high-efficiency connectors for three-phase AC, LVDC, and other modern power infrastructures. Whether you’re upgrading legacy systems or building next-gen infrastructure, we’re here to help you with ICT equipment connections.

Solutions for Every Part of Power Infrastructure

Power Supply Unit

Your PSUs convert AC or LVDC into DC power for ICT equipment. With limited space in IT racks, PSUs benefit from space-saving connectors.

The Saf-D-Grid Connector is built for compact PSU inputs and provides the power density you need. Supporting up to 7.2X the power in the same space as a standard IEC C13/C14 connector, the original Saf-D-Grid delivers high-power PSU interconnects.

Power Distribution Unit

Your PDU distributes AC power to the rack’s ICT equipment, enabling efficient power distribution and greater monitoring of any fluctuations. With rising power densities, PDUs need to do more in less space.

Saf-D-Grid connectors support PDU inputs and outputs. The Saf-D-Grid PDU Key adds an extra layer of safety by preventing accidental loopback. Rated for up to 55A and 600VAC/DC, the Saf-D-Grid Max is ideal for modern PDUs that demand compact, high-performance interconnects.

Powerpole connectors are also built for main PDU outputs and rack PDU inputs. Their stackable, modular, and genderless design provides flexibility for different multipole configurations.

Uninterruptible Power Supply

Your UPS system keeps critical data center systems functioning in the event of power surges or outages. As the bridge between utility power and ICT equipment, the UPS delivers backup power until generators start.

SB and SBS connectors from Anderson Power provide safe, high-current links between your UPS and battery systems. They’re reliable and help ensure the battery’s DC current flows into the UPS output.

Battery Backup Unit

Your BBU provides emergency DC power to keep critical systems running during power failures or voltage drops. Whether centralized in the UPS or distributed at the rack level for extra efficiency, BBUs are critical for backup power.

SB and SBS connectors are trusted for their durability and safety for the critical links between BBUs and power infrastructure.
