## Long description

Rittal DK 7979.117 is a Basic power distribution unit (PDU) designed to provide reliable AC power distribution in rack and telco environments. The unit delivers 13 AC outlets (twelve C13 and one C19) for connecting servers, switches, and other IT or industrial equipment. It is built for a 230 V nominal input and supports up to 16 A of current, with a maximum usable power of approximately 3700 W. The PDU’s grey finish and compact form factor make it suitable for integration into standard racks and cabinets where multiple AC connections are required.
Advantages
The Rittal Basic PDU offers a straightforward, no-frills approach to power distribution: a mix of twelve C13 and one C19 outlet provides flexibility for different connector types commonly found on IT and network devices. With a 16 A rating at 230 V, the unit supports typical rack loads up to around 3700 W while keeping installation and operation simple. Its lightweight construction (approximately 1.95 kg) and neutral grey colour facilitate mounting and visual integration into standard rack systems.
Suitable for
Powering rack servers and blade systems with C13 and C19 connectors
Distributing power to network switches, routers and patch panels in telco racks
Supply for small to medium-sized rack-mounted industrial electronics and control equipment
Environments where a basic, reliable PDU is needed without managed features
When it may not be suitable
This Basic PDU does not include advanced management features such as remote power monitoring, outlet-level switching, surge protection beyond standard design, or network connectivity. For installations requiring intelligent power management, environmental monitoring, or high-availability redundant power architectures, a managed or metered PDU or additional protective equipment may be more appropriate.

How to use
Mount the PDU in a compatible rack or place it on a shelf according to the rack manufacturer’s recommendations. Connect the PDU input to a 230 V, 16 A supply using an appropriate inlet or cable rated for the current and local wiring standards. Plug equipment with C13 or C19 power cords into the matching outlets. Distribute loads to avoid exceeding the 16 A maximum current; calculate combined device power to remain within the approximately 3700 W limit. Regularly inspect cables and connections for wear and ensure ventilation is not obstructed around rack equipment.
What to consider before purchase
Confirm that your equipment uses C13 and/or C19 connectors to match outlet types.
Verify that the rack or cabinet has compatible space and mounting options for the PDU.
Check your total rack power draw to ensure it does not exceed 16 A or ~3700 W per unit.
Decide if you need managed features, metering, or surge protection not provided by this Basic model.
Usage recommendations
For balanced and safe operation, distribute high-draw devices across multiple PDUs if total power demand approaches the 16 A limit. Use certified power cables and follow local electrical codes when connecting the PDU to mains power. If remote monitoring or outlet-level control is required, consider pairing this Basic PDU with external monitoring equipment or choosing a managed model.
