Disclosed in an active power management architecture, including a remote power management system having a database; a power distribution unit communicated with the remote power management system through an internal network; a plurality of electronic devices each includes a power supply unit; and a plurality of transmission cables respectively connected to the power distribution unit and the power supply units of the electronic devices for outputting power of the power distribution unit to the power supply units. The information of the power supply units is transmitted from the power supply units to the power distribution unit through the transmission cables in compliance with a power line communication protocol, and the power distribution unit is configured to transmit the information to the database, such that the remote power management system gives an instruction to the power distribution unit to control the power distribution unit and the power supply units.

Active power management architecture and managing method thereof

A device management system includes a bus bar, a device management module, and a remote management module. The device management module includes at least one remotely-controllable switching circuit and a detecting circuit. When a device is installed in the rack cabinet, the remotely-controllable switching circuit connected with the device is enabled by the detecting circuit. The remote management module is in communication with the remotely-controllable switching circuit and the detecting circuit through the bus bar. The information of the device is acquired by the remote management module through the remotely-controllable switching circuit. A switch element of the remotely-controllable switching circuit which is connected to the device is selectively turned on or turned off by the remote management module. When the switch element is turned on, the DC power is transmitted to the device through the switch element.
