15 A Switched Rack PDU

The APC AP7900B is a 1U horizontal rackmount power distribution unit that delivers 120 V single-phase power through eight 5-15R outlets. It is designed for IT administrators who need remote on-off control and real-time load monitoring for individual receptacles in a standard equipment rack.

Verify rack space and inlet plug

Ensure the rack has a free 1U horizontal slot and that the facility can supply a NEMA 5-15P inlet rated for 1.4 kW. The 11.8 ft input cord must reach the branch circuit without tension, and the combined draw of connected gear must stay within the 15 A rating.

Local display and network alerts under load

A built-in current meter provides a visible warning when total draw approaches the 15 A limit during sustained operation. Remote outlet switching and multi-tier user access let administrators shed non-critical loads or restart locked devices without visiting the rack.

Questions about this item

What is included with the AP7900B and what must be purchased separately?

The unit ships as a complete 1U switched PDU with an attached 11.8 ft NEMA 5-15P cord and eight 5-15R outlets ready to mount. No extra parts are required for basic operation.

How do I decide between the 15 A and other amperage versions of this PDU?

This model is the 15 A version rated for a 1.4 kW load at 120 V. Choose it when your rack equipment draws up to that limit; select a higher-amperage PDU only if your total load exceeds 15 A.

What does the 1.4 kW input rating mean once the PDU is installed in my rack?

It is the maximum continuous power the AP7900B can deliver to all eight outlets combined. Stay below 1.4 kW total draw to avoid tripping the internal breaker or triggering the local overload display.
