Panduit P48E21M Power Distribution Unit

Overview

The Panduit P48E21M is a 30A, 208V/240V Power Distribution Unit (PDU) designed for high-density rack environments. It provides 24 C13/C15 outlets, ideal for powering multiple servers, network switches, and other IT equipment within a standard network rack. The L21-30P twist-lock input plug ensures a secure connection to the power source, while the top-feed design simplifies cable management in racks where power entry is at the top. This unit is built for commercial and enterprise deployments requiring reliable power distribution.

Compatibility

This PDU is compatible with standard 19-inch server racks and cabinets. The L21-30P input connector requires a matching 30A, 208V/240V L21-30R receptacle or generator feed. It is suitable for use with a wide range of IT equipment that utilizes C13 or C15 power cords. For specific equipment compatibility, consult your IT hardware power requirements.

Installation Notes

The P48E21M is designed for top-feeding power into the rack. Ensure the PDU is securely mounted within the rack using the provided mounting brackets. The L21-30P plug must be firmly seated and locked into the power source receptacle to prevent accidental disconnection. Verify that the total power draw of connected equipment does not exceed the PDU's 30A rating to prevent overload.
