PDU APC Easy Rack 0U EPDU1116B
The APC Easy Basic Rack PDU EPDU1116B is a 0U, vertical rack-mount power distribution unit designed for server and network racks. The unit features an ultra-light aluminum housing, a 16 A IEC 309 2P+E inlet and a total of 24 outlets (twenty IEC C13 and four IEC C19). Nominal input voltage is 200/208/230 V, maximum current 16 A and rated capacity 3.7 kW. The PDU includes a 3 m cable and compact dimensions (62 mm W x 44 mm D x 902 mm H), making it suitable for space-constrained rack installations. Operating temperature range is -5 °C to +45 °C and the product carries a 1-year standard warranty.
The EPDU1116B provides straightforward rack power distribution with vertical 0U mounting that preserves usable rack space. Its aluminum housing reduces weight by up to 50% compared with traditional metal PDUs while retaining durability. A mix of twenty C13 and four C19 outlets offers flexible connectivity for servers, network switches and other rack equipment. The included toolless mounting kit, mounting brackets and installation guide simplify rear-of-enclosure installation.
Mount the PDU vertically at the rear of the rack using the supplied mounting brackets and toolless kit following the installation guide. Connect the IEC 309 16 A inlet to an appropriate branch power source rated for the PDU's nominal voltage and maximum current. Plug equipment into the C13 and C19 outlets according to their power requirements, ensuring total load does not exceed 16 A or 3.7 kW. Observe the specified operating temperature range and provide adequate ventilation in the rack.
Install the EPDU1116B in the rear 0U space to preserve rack units for equipment, balance load across outlets, and use a single appropriately rated branch whip connection to simplify installation and reduce cabling complexity.
