APC AP9563 Rack PDU 120V 20A
The APC AP9563 is a 1U horizontal rack power distribution unit that delivers 120 volt power through ten NEMA 5-20R outlets. It connects to a NEMA 5-20P inlet via a 12 foot cord and supports a maximum input current of 20A. The unit weighs 2500 grams and measures 18.5 by 9 by 2.75 inches.
Suited For And Not Suited For
This PDU suits administrators who need basic, reliable power distribution for servers and networking gear in a 1U horizontal slot. It is not suited for buyers who require metered or switched outlet control, remote monitoring, or input voltages other than 120 volts. Builders needing more than ten outlets or a different plug type should look at other models.
Deciding Specification
The single specification that decides fit is the ten NEMA 5-20R outlets fed by a NEMA 5-20P plug on a 12 foot cord at 120 volts and 20A maximum current. Confirm that your rack gear uses NEMA 5-20R connectors and that your facility provides a NEMA 5-20P source before purchasing.
