Basic rack-mount power distribution
The AP9564 is a 1U horizontal PDU that distributes 120 V power to ten NEMA 5‑20R outlets from a single NEMA L5‑20P inlet. It supports a maximum input current of 20 A with a regulatory derated limit of 16 A and delivers up to 2400 VA. A 12 ft cord and included mounting brackets allow quick installation in standard racks.
Suited for dense 120 V rack rows.
This unit fits environments that need simple, high‑density outlet distribution at 120 V without local monitoring or remote switching. It is not intended for users who require per‑outlet metering, outlet‑level switching, environmental sensors or three‑phase input configurations.
Single-spec decision: 20 A L5‑20P inlet
The defining specification is the combination of a 20 A NEMA L5‑20P plug and ten NEMA 5‑20R receptacles on a 1U chassis. If your rack power infrastructure provides a 20 A 120 V twist‑lock circuit and you need exactly ten matching outlets, this PDU matches; otherwise a different inlet or outlet count is required.

Questions about this item
Will the NEMA L5-20P plug on this AP9564 fit the same 20 A circuit my older rack gear uses?
Yes, the unit draws up to 20 A through a standard NEMA L5-20P connector, matching common 120 V 20 A branch circuits used by legacy equipment.
How can I verify the PDU is delivering power to all ten 5-20R outlets after installation?
Each receptacle is passive; confirm operation by plugging in a known-good device such as a server power supply or a simple lamp and checking for power-on indication.
Does the box include mounting hardware for a 1U horizontal rack slot, or must I order brackets separately?
The package ships with rack mounting brackets and an installation guide, so no extra hardware is required for a standard 1U horizontal mount.
