Key Product Advantages
The AP4450 combines high-capacity power distribution with compact rack design, offering several advantages for business IT infrastructure. Its automatic transfer capability ensures continuous power availability by switching between sources during interruptions, reducing downtime risks for critical systems.
High-Density Outlet Configuration
With ten NEMA 5-15R outlets, this switch maximizes power connectivity in a single 1U space, reducing the need for additional power strips or PDUs.
- Supports multiple devices simultaneously
- Standard NEMA connectors for broad compatibility
Integrated Protection Features
Over-current protection prevents damage from electrical surges or faults, enhancing the safety and longevity of connected equipment.
- Safeguards against power anomalies
- Maintains stable operation under load
Deployment / Use Cases
The AP4450 is ideal for deployment in server racks, network closets, and data centers where reliable power distribution and redundancy are essential. Its 1U form factor makes it suitable for environments with limited vertical space, such as colocation facilities or enterprise server rooms.
Common use cases include powering rack-mounted servers, switches, and storage arrays, where the automatic transfer function provides backup power source switching. It also serves well in lab setups or broadcast studios, where multiple devices require centralized, protected power management with minimal footprint.
Data Center Power Redundancy
Deploy in racks to ensure uninterrupted power for critical infrastructure, leveraging automatic transfer to switch between primary and backup sources during outages.
Network Equipment Power Management
Use to distribute power to routers, switches, and firewalls, with over-current protection securing sensitive networking hardware.
Physical Profile
Designed for rack installation, the AP4450 measures 1.72 inches in height, 17 inches in width, and 9.30 inches in depth, fitting standard 1U rack spaces. Its black finish blends with typical rack hardware, while the approximate weight of 9.70 pounds ensures stable mounting without excessive load on rack rails.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1U, 17" (431.80 mm), 9.30" (236.22 mm), 9.70 lb (4399.85 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
