ATEN PE6208B 1U Metered Rack PDU 20A 200-240V

Overview

The ATEN PE6208B is a 1U rack-mount, metered power distribution unit rated at 20A on a 200–240V feed, delivering eight outlets (7×C13, 1×C19) in a single rack unit. It is designed for server rooms, network closets, and AV/security equipment racks where you need local power metering to track load per PDU — preventing tripped breakers during incremental equipment adds. The PE6208B ships with a 3-meter power cord, so confirm your distance to the in-rack power strip or floor PDU before ordering. UL safety verification is included; additional regional certifications are available by request.

Compatibility

The PE6208B belongs to the ATEN PE6208 series alongside the PE6208A and PE6208G variants — the primary difference being regional certification (PE6208G carries CE-LVD for European deployments; PE6208B and PE6208A are UL-listed for North American installations). The C13 outlets accept standard IEC 60320 C14 plugs (servers, switches, cameras, NVRs, and most rack equipment). The single C19 outlet supports higher-draw devices with C20 plugs — typical for higher-wattage servers or UPS bypass connections. Compatible with ATEN's PMonitor software for centralized power monitoring: Linux (PMonitor v1.1) and Windows (PMonitor v1.0.081) clients are available, enabling per-PDU load visibility from a management workstation. Firmware is field-upgradeable (current release v2.5.248, dated 2026-04-15), which means you are not locked into the factory build for SNMP or monitoring feature updates.

Installation Notes

Operating humidity range is 0–80% RH non-condensing — standard for conditioned rack environments; avoid uncontrolled spaces with condensation risk. The 3m cord length is fixed; if your rack requires a longer whip to reach the floor PDU or wall receptacle, plan the cable management path before mounting. Rack installation follows standard 1U form factor — no special tooling noted in the evidence beyond standard rack hardware.
