Metered 1U Rack PDU with 16A Rating

The APC AP7821 is a metered power distribution unit designed for 1U rack mounting. It provides eight IEC 320 C13 outlets to supply rack-mounted servers and network equipment. The unit includes a built-in sensor that measures total current draw for local and remote monitoring.

Eight C13 Outlets at 208V or 230V Output

The PDU delivers power at 208V or 230V through eight C13 connectors fed by a single IEC-320 C20 inlet. Regulatory derating limits continuous input to 16A, with a maximum input current of 20A. This capacity suits typical rack densities but cannot support loads exceeding the 16A derated threshold.

Operating Range -5 to 45 °C with Network Management

The unit operates between -5 °C and 45 °C at up to 95% relative humidity without condensation. It supports monitoring via Web, Telnet, SNMP, SSH, or InfraStruXure Manager interfaces for remote current tracking. Certifications include cUL Listed, CE, CSA, and FCC Part 15 Class A compliance.

Questions about this item

How does the AP7821's 16 A derated input limit affect the older UPS I plan to keep?

The PDU is rated for a maximum input of 20 A and a regulatory derated current of 16 A, so your UPS must be able to supply up to 16 A continuously without tripping its own breaker.

How can I confirm the AP7821 is metering current correctly after installation?

The unit has a local current monitoring display that shows real-time amperage; you can also poll the load via Web, Telnet, SNMP, SSH or InfraStruXure Manager to verify the reading matches the connected equipment.

What ships with the AP7821 and what must I source separately?

The 1U rack PDU itself is included; you will need to provide an IEC-320 C20 input cable to match your UPS or wall outlet and up to eight IEC C13 cords for the devices you intend to power.
