FAQ
What is the amperage rating of this PDU?
The Middle Atlantic PD-915R-PL has a 15 Amp rating, which determines its maximum current capacity. This rating ensures it can safely deliver power to multiple connected devices without exceeding electrical limits, making it suitable for typical server rack and network equipment loads.
How many outlets does this power distribution unit have?
This PDU features nine NEMA 5-15R outlets. These standard North American outlets allow you to connect multiple devices such as servers, switches, and routers simultaneously, providing organized power distribution in rack environments.
Is this PDU rack-mountable?
Yes, the PD-915R-PL is designed for rack mounting with a standard 19-inch width. Its 1U height (1.75 inches) fits seamlessly into server racks and network cabinets, making it an ideal solution for data centers and IT closets where space optimization is crucial.
What type of plug does the power cord use?
The power cord is equipped with a NEMA 5-15P plug, which is the standard three-prong plug for 120 V AC outlets in North America. This ensures compatibility with common wall outlets and power sources in commercial and residential settings.
Does this PDU include overload protection?
