## Summary description

Rittal DK 7979.814 is a basic rack-mounted power distribution unit (PDU) providing 20 AC outlets—including 16 BS 1363 sockets and a C19 coupler—for reliable power delivery in IT and telecom racks. It supports 230 V nominal input, up to 16 A and 3,700 W, with a 3 m supply cable and certifications to EN 62368-1 and relevant EMC and metrology standards.

## Long description

The Rittal DK 7979.814 Basic PDU is a rack-mount power distribution unit designed for IT, telecom and data centre environments that require straightforward, reliable AC power delivery. This unit provides 20 AC outlets, including sixteen BS 1363 sockets and a single IEC C19 coupler, accepts 230 V nominal input at up to 16 A and delivers up to 3,700 W via an integrated 3 m supply cable. The design follows recognised safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards, making it suitable for standard server racks and equipment cabinets where a simple, durable PDU is required.
Advantages
The PDU offers a compact and robust solution for distributing AC power across multiple devices in a rack. With a mix of BS 1363 sockets and a C19 coupler it supports common server and network equipment configurations without additional adapters. The fixed 3 m cable simplifies installation in typical rack layouts while the 16 A, 230 V rating allows continuous operation of multiple devices up to the combined power limit.
Suitable for
 Standard 19-inch server and network racks requiring multiple BS 1363 outlets
 Small and medium data centres or telecom cabinets with mixed equipment
 IT rooms where a basic, non-switched PDU is sufficient for power distribution
 Environments needing a C19 outlet for high-current appliances alongside BS 1363 sockets
When it may not be suitable
This basic PDU does not include remote monitoring, switching, or per-outlet metering, so it is not suitable where active power management, outlet control or detailed consumption reporting is required. Environments needing redundant power feeds, automatic transfer switching or intelligent rack power management should consider managed or redundant PDUs instead.
Key specifications
 Number of AC outlets: 20 (16 BS 1363 sockets, 1 IEC C19 coupler plus remaining outlets as specified)
 Nominal input voltage: 230 V AC
 Maximum current: 16 A
 Maximum power: 3,700 W
 Supply cable length: 3 m
 Form factor: Rack-mount PDU suitable for standard server cabinets
 Standards: Conforms to applicable safety and EMC standards for IT equipment
How to use
Mount the PDU securely within a compatible 19-inch rack or cabinet in a location that provides good access to the outlets. Route the 3 m supply cable to a suitable mains outlet rated for 230 V and 16 A, ensuring the supply can handle the combined load of connected devices. Distribute equipment across the available sockets to avoid exceeding the total current and power ratings; calculate the summed device power to stay within the 3,700 W limit. Follow local electrical codes and safety procedures when connecting high-current devices to the C19 coupler.
What to consider before purchase
 Confirm rack compatibility and available mounting space for a basic rack-mount PDU
 Verify that 230 V / 16 A supply and circuit capacity are available where the PDU will be installed
 Check the outlet types match the plugs of your equipment (BS 1363 and IEC C19)
 Decide whether you need managed features (monitoring, remote switching) that this basic unit does not provide
Usage recommendations
Balance high-draw devices across the outlets and avoid grouping all power-hungry equipment on adjacent sockets. Regularly inspect connections and ensure ventilation within the rack to maintain safe operating temperatures for both the PDU and connected equipment.
