APC AP9559 1U 16A PDU
The APC AP9559 is a basic rack-mount power distribution unit designed for horizontal 1U installation. It distributes 208 or 230V power to servers and network equipment in datacentres or branch offices. This unit suits administrators who need straightforward outlet access without monitoring features. It is not for buyers who require remote power switching or per-outlet metering.
16A capacity at 208 and 230V
Rated at 16A, the PDU handles typical rack densities for networking gear and entry-level servers on 208V or 230V supplies. It provides sufficient headroom for standard loads but reaches its limit with high-density compute nodes drawing sustained current near the rating. Installations needing higher amperage or three-phase distribution must select a different model.
Passive thermals and zero fan noise
With no active cooling components, the unit operates silently and adds negligible heat to the rack environment. Power draw is limited to the minimal loss across internal bus bars and connections. Normal use presents no thermal management concerns and requires no additional airflow provision beyond standard rack cooling.

Questions about this item
Will the 16 A rating on the AP9559 handle the same 208/230 V gear I already run in the rack?
The unit is rated for 16 A at both 208 V and 230 V, so it can feed existing equipment that draws within that current at either voltage.
How can I confirm the AP9559 is delivering power correctly once it is mounted?
Connect a known load and verify the attached devices power on; the basic PDU has no built-in metering, so an external clamp meter or device-level monitoring is needed to validate current draw.
What ships with the AP9559 and what must I source separately?
The package includes the 1U rack-mount PDU itself; mounting brackets, input cord and any outlet adapters required for your specific plugs are not included and must be purchased separately.
