IEC data racks pdu power distribution unit

About This Item

BASIC PDU: 16A single phase 220V basic power distribution unit is a versatile no-frills unit for data centers, server rooms and network wiring closets.With basic meter shows v/A.
PERFECT DESIGN : No more messy wires or extension cords! A/C power center designed to eliminate extension cords and messy wires.
ELIMINATES RFI AND EMI: The built-in ac noise filters get rid of unwanted radio frequency (RFI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) to improve the stability of the equipment and prolong the service life of your electronics at home or office.
BUILT TO LAST: Made with sturdy steel chassis and front panel and 6ft long power cord that can withstand light tugging so you can convert any standard AC outlet into a mini-charging station for smartphone/laptops w/ bulky charger.
MAXIMUM LOAD : This Power supply can handle load up to 16 amps or 3680 watts.

Advantages of IEC Power Distribution Unit

The inherent advantage of using IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standard outlets (such as C13, C19, C14, and C20) is its focus on universal compatibility and international standardization.

Global Interoperability:IEC receptacles are an internationally recognized standard, handling output voltages up to 250V and various current ratings. This allows your clients to deploy the same PDU across geographically diverse facilities, simplifying inventory, procurement, and equipment planning.
Secure Connection Options: Many IEC outlets feature mechanisms like built-in locking outlets or plug retention systems (e.g., eGrip), which mechanically secure the power cord to the PDU. This **prevents accidental disconnection** due to vibration or human error, a critical factor in maintaining IT equipment uptime.

Advantages of a Data Metered PDU

The inherent characteristic of a Metered PDU is its ability to provide real-time power visibility and accurate electrical data, which is essential for informed power management.

Proactive Overload Prevention: By continuously monitoring key electrical metrics like Current (A), Voltage (V), and Real Power (kW) (often with billing-grade accuracy), the metered PDU enables staff to instantly see when a circuit is approaching its capacity. This allows for proactive load balancing and prevents circuit breaker trips that cause costly downtime.
Capacity Planning Insight: The data collected, especially total energy consumption (kWh), allows for precise planning of future IT deployments. Managers can confidently assess available power capacity within a rack before installing new equipment, maximizing infrastructure utilization without risking overloads.

Advantages of a Rack Metered PDU

The inherent characteristic of a Rack PDU (or rPDU) is its physical design optimized for IT enclosures, focusing on space utilization and power density.

Optimized Space Efficiency: Rack PDUs are typically designed for vertical (0U) or horizontal (1U/2U) mounting within the server rack frame. Vertical mounting, in particular, utilizes the unused space at the side or back of the rack, maximizing the number of outlets available without consuming critical equipment mounting space.
High Power Density: Rack-mounted designs can handle higher current capacities and temperature tolerance, supporting the increasing power density required by modern, high-performance IT equipment like blade servers and AI workloads. This ensures the PDU itself is not a bottleneck in a high-density environment.
