Switched Auto Transfer Switch 1U 15A

The Vertiv VA4N1100 is a 1U rack-mounted switched auto transfer switch designed to provide redundant power for single-corded IT equipment. It accepts two independent 120 V input feeds through dual NEMA 5-15P plugs and delivers up to 1400 W across ten NEMA 5-15R outlets. Unit-level monitoring gives visibility of total load.

For single-corded rack gear needing redundancy

This unit suits installations where servers or network devices have only one power supply but the site requires automatic failover between two sources. It is not for equipment that already has dual power supplies and internal failover. Buyers needing output voltages outside the 100 V to 120 V AC range or more than ten outlets should look at other power distribution options.

Dual NEMA 5-15P input for automatic failover

The defining specification is the pair of NEMA 5-15P input connectors that enable the transfer switch to move the load between sources without interruption. With a 15 A maximum input rating and 1400 W output capacity, the unit supports typical 120 V rack loads while fitting in a single 1U horizontal slot.

Questions about this item

Will the 10 NEMA 5-15R outlets on this 1U PDU accept the standard NEMA 5-15P plugs from my existing rack equipment?

Yes, the unit provides 10 NEMA 5-15R receptacles that match the common 5-15P plugs used by most 120 V rack devices.

How can I confirm the auto-transfer switch is operating correctly after installation?

The unit-level monitoring reports input voltage and load on each of the two 120 V 15 A feeds; verify both sources show healthy voltage and that the load shifts cleanly when one feed is removed.

Does the box include the two NEMA 5-15P input cables and mounting brackets, or must I order them separately?

The 1U horizontal chassis with 10 outlets and dual 5-15P inlets ships as a complete unit; rack-mount brackets are integrated, so no separate bracket kit is required.
