FAQ
What is the maximum power capacity of this PDU?
This APC NetShelter PDU delivers 3.3kW when connected to 208V power or 3.7kW when connected to 230V power. Both configurations operate at 16A current, with the higher voltage connection providing additional wattage capacity for powering more equipment or higher-demand devices within the same rack environment.
How many outlets does this PDU provide and what types are they?
The PDU features 20 total outlets with a mixed configuration that includes 18 standard C13 outlets and 2 higher-current C19 outlets. This combination supports typical server and networking equipment through the C13 connections while providing dedicated C19 outlets for devices requiring more robust power delivery, such as certain UPS units or high-performance computing equipment.
What rack mounting options are available for this PDU?
This PDU is designed for vertical 0U rack mounting with side placement. The 0U designation means it consumes no rack units of vertical space, instead mounting in the side channels of standard 19-inch racks. This space-efficient approach maximizes equipment density while providing full-length power distribution along the rack's vertical profile.
What management and monitoring capabilities does this PDU offer?
The metered PDU provides real-time monitoring of amps, volts, kW, and kWh with ±3% accuracy.
