Product Features
Technical Overview
This PDU operates with a three-wire plus ground (3W+G) hardwire terminal block connection, requiring professional installation by qualified electricians. The 63A input current rating ensures sufficient power capacity for demanding rack environments where multiple servers, switches, and storage devices operate simultaneously.
The outlet configuration includes four IEC 60320 C13 receptacles (commonly used for servers, switches, and networking equipment) and four IEC 60320 C19 receptacles (typically for high-power devices like UPS systems and power supplies). This balanced mix accommodates diverse equipment power needs within a single rack.
This section brings together practical product details such as Plug/Connector Type, Plug/Connector Detail, Receptacle Type, Input Current, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.
