14-Outlet 1U Surge Protector

The Tripp Lite DRS-1215 is a 1U rack-mount surge suppressor with fourteen NEMA 5-15R outlets split between the front and rear panels. A fifteen-foot cord reaches distant power sources in server rooms or AV racks. The all-metal cabinet includes detachable flanges for flexible mounting in standard nineteen-inch enclosures. It suits network administrators protecting dense equipment clusters.

Upgrading from Basic Power Strips

This unit replaces unprotected strips that leave gear exposed to transients and line noise. The three thousand joule rating absorbs larger surges than typical office strips, while the one hundred forty volt clamping voltage reacts faster to spikes. The forty to eighty decibel EMI/RFI filter cleans dirty power that can corrupt data or degrade audio and video signals. The jump is worth it when downtime or data loss costs more than the suppressor.

Integration and Mounting Flexibility

The suppressor fits one rack unit and supports zero-U mounting to preserve vertical space for servers or switches. Detachable flanges allow wall or under-counter installation when rack rails are unavailable. Fourteen outlets consolidate power distribution for switches, patch panels and peripherals on a single fifteen-ampere circuit rated for eighteen hundred watts. The fifteen-foot cord removes the need for extension cables that add failure points.

Questions about this item

Does the 17.5-inch wide metal cabinet fit a standard 19-inch rack?

Yes, the 1.75-inch high unit occupies 1U and includes detachable mounting flanges for standard 19-inch rack installation.

How do I secure the 15-foot cord during rack mounting so it does not pull on the outlets?

Use the built-in cord-retention clips on the rear panel and route the cable through the rack’s cable-management arms before tightening the flange screws.

When should I replace the unit if the 3000-joule protection degrades after repeated surges?

Replace it when the front-panel protection LED turns off, indicating the MOVs can no longer clamp at the rated 140-volt level.
