Product Overview

This 1U Rack Mount Metered PDU features a built-in 8ft (2.4m) NEMA 5-15P power cord and 8x NEMA 5-15R outlets, while the surge protection helps ensure the safe and stable operation of critical equipment. A large backlit LCD provides live readings of electrical parameters for connected devices.

Metered Power Distribution Unit

Metering is essential for maintaining equipment performance and stability by enabling real-time reads of key electrical parameters: voltage (V), current (Amp), wattage (W), and power factor (PF). The power factor indicates the efficiency of connected devices, with values closer to 1.0 being the most efficient. Monitoring enables early detection of potential issues, efficient load management, and insights for optimizing energy use.

The large-font display provides real-time monitoring of key electrical parameters, while the on-demand backlight helps with visibility in dimly lit scenarios.

Enhanced Power Safety

The robust 15A circuit breaker features a mechanical trigger that quickly responds to surges, providing essential protection for the connected. The resettable breaker has a safety cover that prevents unintentional resets. A bright LED indicator confirms active surge protection

Rack Mount Design

1U horizontal rackmount PDU is compatible with EIA-310-compliant 19-inch 2 or 4-post server racks or cabinets that are 4-inch (10.1cm) or deeper

The TAA-compliant cabinet power strip is constructed from cold-rolled steel that ensures sturdiness and features a textured finish that enhances long-lasting durability. The PDU is equipped with a total of eight electrical outlets, including six positioned at the rear and two at the front, providing ample connectivity options for various devices in server rooms, data centers, and other professional environments.
