Metered rack PDU for data-centre racks

The APC APDU10151ME is a metered power distribution unit built for 19-inch server and networking cabinets. It delivers up to 5 kW or 5000 VA through 40 outlets while occupying only 2.2 inches of horizontal space. IT teams gain real-time outlet and PDU-level power readings to spot overload risk before it trips a breaker.

Practical limits of the metered interface

The unit reports aggregate and per-outlet current so managers can balance loads across the 40 receptacles. Each colour-coded breaker group simplifies circuit tracing during changes. The 10 ft input cord fixes the distance to the upstream supply; longer runs need a separate whip. Cascaded units share a single network management card through two ethernet ports, but the card itself is not included in the base facts.

Build quality and daily connector implications

The 4-in-1 combination outlets accept C13, C15, C19 or C21 plugs without adapters, letting administrators mix device types on the fly. Colour-coded outlet banks match breaker boundaries so a mis-plugged cord is obvious at a glance. A live-swap network management card can be replaced without powering down connected gear, avoiding downtime during firmware faults. Rated for continuous operation at 60 C (140 F), the chassis tolerates hot-aisle exhaust temperatures common in dense deployments.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the C13, C15, C19 and C21 outlet options on the 4-in-1 combination outlets?

Each of the 40 outlets accepts C13, C15, C19 or C21 plugs, so you can mix connector types on the same PDU without needing separate units.

What does the 5 kW / 5000 VA rating mean for my rack deployment?

The unit can deliver up to 5 kW continuous load at 60 °C (140 °F) ambient, giving full rated capacity even in high-density racks.

What do the dual Gigabit Ethernet ports and Power Sharing actually provide?

Cascaded PDUs share a single Network Management Card; if one loses AC power, the NMC stays online through the neighbour, keeping monitoring and alerts active.
