1U Rackmount Metered PDU
The CyberPower PDU20M2F8R is a 1U rackmount metered power distribution unit designed for server rooms and datacentres. It distributes 120V 20A output to ten NEMA 5-20R receptacles from a single NEMA 5-20P input with unfiltered electrical pass-through. A front LCD displays real-time current draw in amps for connected equipment. The unit supports horizontal, vertical and under-counter mounting with a 15-foot cord and retention.
Suited for monitored 120V racks
This PDU suits administrators who need local amp metering on a 20A 120V circuit with ten 5-20R outlets. It fits 1U horizontal racks, vertical 0U channels or under-counter spaces. Buyers requiring switched outlet control, remote network monitoring or IEC outlet types should look at other models. The unit provides unfiltered pass-through without surge suppression or power conditioning.
Front LCD amp meter
The defining specification is the integrated front-panel LCD meter that shows live current consumption in amps. This allows immediate visual load verification without software or network access. The meter operates across the 100–125V range at 50/60 Hz with a 20A overload breaker. UL1363 and CSA C22.2 certifications cover North American safety compliance.

Questions about this item
Does the PDU20M2F8R need a NEMA 5-20P wall receptacle or a 20 A circuit to operate?
Yes. The unit ships with a NEMA 5-20P plug on a 15 ft cord and draws up to 20 A at 120 V, so a dedicated 20 A branch circuit and matching receptacle are required.
Can I plug legacy NEMA 5-15P equipment into the PDU20M2F8R’s 5-20R outlets?
Yes. Each of the ten NEMA 5-20R receptacles accepts both 5-20P and 5-15P plugs, so older 15 A devices connect directly without adapters.
How do I verify the PDU20M2F8R is metering load correctly after installation?
The front LCD shows real-time current in amps; apply a known load and confirm the reading matches the expected draw within the 0–20 A range.
