2U Basic PDU for 208V Racks
The APC AP7581 is a 2U rack-mountable power distribution unit that delivers 208V output through four NEMA L6-20R receptacles. It accepts 200V, 208V or 230V input at 50 or 60 Hz via a NEMA L14-30P plug on a 28 ft cord. The unit is rated for 4992 VA with a maximum input current of 30A and a regulatory derated current of 24A.
Installation uses included brackets
Mounting brackets and an installation guide are supplied for standard 2U rack installation. The 28 ft input cord provides reach to distant panelboards, but its length and stiffness can make cable routing inside crowded cabinets difficult. Ensure the NEMA L14-30P plug matches the facility receptacle exactly; an incorrect receptacle will prevent connection.
Verify input power and outlet needs
Confirm the site provides 200V, 208V or 230V single-phase power with a NEMA L14-30R receptacle on a 30A branch circuit. The PDU supplies only four NEMA L6-20R outlets, so connected equipment must use matching L6-20P plugs or compatible adapters. Operating temperature range is 32 to 113 °F with 0 to 95% relative humidity.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the AP7581 is distributing power correctly after rack installation?
Confirm the total connected load stays within the 4992 VA rating and that each of the four NEMA L6-20R outlets supplies 208 V to attached equipment.
What mounting hardware and documentation are included with the AP7581, and what must I source separately?
The package includes rack-mounting brackets and an installation guide; you must provide the NEMA L14-30P input receptacle and any output cables for the L6-20R outlets.
The AP7581 is a single 2U 30 A model — how do I decide if this capacity fits my rack power budget?
Use the 24 A regulatory derated input current and 4992 VA output rating to calculate whether your combined device draw fits within those limits.
