Vertical Switched PDU 0U

The APC AP8959NA3 is a vertical 0U switched power distribution unit designed for rack environments. It accepts 200-240 V single-phase input through a NEMA L6-20P plug and delivers power through twenty-one C13 and three C19 locking outlets. Remote outlet switching enables power cycling and access control for connected equipment.

IT managers needing remote reboot and sequencing

This unit suits administrators who require outlet-level on/off control, power-on sequencing delays and real-time current metering with alarm thresholds. Management is available via web, SNMP, CLI or Telnet and integrates with APC centralised platforms. Sites without 200-240 V single-phase supply, without a NEMA L6-20P feed, or needing fewer than twenty-four outlets should consider other options.

20 A input with 16 A derated limit

The regulatory derated input current is 16 A at 208 V output, which determines the maximum continuous load the PDU can support. Exceeding this limit will trip the upstream breaker regardless of the 20 A plug rating. Verify that the total connected equipment draws no more than 16 A before deployment.

Questions about this item

What rack space does the 0U vertical PDU require for mounting?

The AP8959NA3 mounts in 0U vertical space, using the full height of a standard rack without consuming horizontal rack units, and includes tool-less mounting brackets for quick installation.

How is the NEMA L6-20P input connected and what derating step is often missed?

Plug the 9.84 ft cord into a 200-240V 20A branch circuit; the regulatory derated input current is 16A, so the PDU must not draw more than 3.3 kW continuous load to stay within code limits.

When should the locking IEC C13 and C19 receptacles be inspected or replaced?

Inspect the 21 C13 and 3 C19 locking receptacles during routine maintenance cycles; replace any that show contact wear, cracked housings, or failure to lock securely to prevent accidental disconnects under load.
