Centralised 13-Outlet Rack Power
This 1U horizontal power distribution unit supplies 120 V to thirteen NEMA 5-15 outlets from a single 15 A input. It is built for small to mid-sized IT rooms, offices and business racks that need organised, code-compliant power delivery without extra bulk.
Sustained Load Behaviour
A user-resettable 15 A breaker protects every connected device during continuous operation, while the regulatory derated limit of 12 A ensures safe margins on extended runs. The 1500 VA load capacity remains stable across the full outlet count without thermal throttling.
Steel Build and Mounting Flexibility
Rugged SPCC steel with a powder-coated finish resists wear in daily rack use. Pre-installed four-way brackets allow horizontal or vertical mounting on any EIA-310 19-inch cabinet deeper than 10.1 cm, and the 2.4 m cord reaches distant wall sockets cleanly.

Questions about this item
Does the 15 A circuit breaker trip often when the PDU runs at its 1500 VA load capacity all day?
The user-resettable 15 A breaker only trips if the combined draw exceeds 15 A; at the rated 1500 VA load the unit operates within its 12 A derated limit, so nuisance tripping is unlikely.
What rack hardware must I already have to mount this 1U horizontal PDU?
You need a standard EIA-310 19-inch rack or cabinet at least 10.1 cm deep; the package supplies four M5 cage nuts, four M5×12 mm screws and washers for installation.
Can I plug legacy NEMA 5-15 devices into the 12 rear-facing outlets while keeping the front port free for temporary gear?
Yes, all 13 outlets are NEMA 5-15; the 12 rear ports handle permanent connections and the single front port remains accessible for short-term devices.
