1U Switched PDU for Rack Power Control

This 1U rack-mountable switched power distribution unit provides network-managed outlet control for IT environments. It distributes 120 V power through eight NEMA 5-20R receptacles and connects via a NEMA L5-20P input plug. The unit supports remote power cycling and sequencing through an RJ-45 network interface, allowing administrators to manage connected loads from a single portal.

Suited for Admins Needing Outlet-Level Switching

IT staff who require individual outlet control and remote reboot capability for servers or network gear will benefit from the switched architecture. The single input circuit rated at 24 A limits total connected load, so sites needing higher aggregate current or more than eight outlets on one unit should consider alternative configurations.

24 A Input Rating Defines Total Load Capacity

The 24 A, 120 V input sets the maximum combined draw for all eight outlets, making this figure the primary constraint when planning rack power budgets. Exceeding this rating will trip the upstream breaker, so the connected equipment must stay within the 24 A limit.

Questions about this item

How do I install this 1U switched PDU and what step is often missed?

Mount the 1U chassis in a standard rack, connect the L5-20P plug to a 24 A 120 V circuit, then configure the RJ-45 network port for remote access; the step often missed is setting a static IP before deploying outlet sequencing.

What maintenance or replacement will this PDU need over time?

The internal relay contacts on the 16 NEMA 5-20R outlets are rated for thousands of switching cycles; plan to replace the unit if outlet cycling becomes unreliable after extended use.

What limit appears first when this PDU runs at full load continuously?

The 24 A input rating on the L5-20P cord is the first hard limit; sustained draw above 24 A will trip the upstream breaker before any outlet-level restriction activates.
