Rack-mount PDU for dense 120V loads
The CyberPower PDU30BT8F8R is a 1U basic power distribution unit that delivers 120V 30A output across sixteen NEMA 5-20R receptacles arranged eight front and eight rear. It accepts a single NEMA L5-30P twist-lock plug and passes power through without filtering. The metal housing and 12-foot cord suit datacenter racks and other electrically demanding installations.
Horizontal or vertical mounting with cord retention
The unit fits a standard 1U rack space and can be oriented horizontally or vertically depending on cabinet layout. A built-in cord retention tray secures the 12-foot input cable to prevent accidental disconnection. Installation requires a compatible L5-30R receptacle on the upstream power source; the twist-lock plug will not mate with standard 5-20R or 5-15R wall outlets.
Verify upstream power
Confirm the facility provides a 120V 30A circuit terminated in an L5-30R connector that matches the PDU’s twist-lock plug. Ensure connected equipment uses NEMA 5-20P plugs; devices with 5-15P plugs will fit but cannot draw the full 20A per receptacle rating. The PDU offers no surge filtering or monitoring, so it does not replace a UPS or metered unit for critical loads.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the PDU30BT8F8R is delivering power correctly after installation?
Verify that connected equipment powers on and operates normally; the unit provides unfiltered 120V 30A pass-through to all 16 NEMA 5-20R receptacles from the NEMA L5-30P input.
What comes with the PDU30BT8F8R and what must be sourced separately?
The package includes the 1U PDU with 12-foot cord, NEMA L5-30P twist-lock plug, cord retention tray and mounting hardware for horizontal or vertical installation; IEC cords or adapters for your devices are not included.
Which outlet layout should I choose for my rack — front-heavy or balanced?
This model is fixed at 8 front and 8 rear NEMA 5-20R outlets; select it when you need an even split, otherwise consider a different PDU with an alternative front/rear ratio.
