Abstract
A power supply control apparatus, where the power supply control apparatus is configured to control power supply to a cabinet in a data center is presented, where the power supply control apparatus includes a communications module configured to receive an instruction of a network management center, and a controllable switch configured to adjust a capacity of the controllable switch according to the instruction to perform power-on/power-off control on the cabinet. In various embodiments, a power supply control apparatus may receive an instruction of a network management center, and can adjust a capacity of a controllable switch according to the instruction, which enhances power distribution flexibility, and therefore, a workload of changing a switch and a power cable can be reduced, and an engineering related risk can be avoided.
