Panduit P18E23M Power Distribution Unit

Overview

The Panduit P18E23M is a 30A Power Distribution Unit (PDU) designed to provide reliable power to rack-mounted equipment. It features an L5-30P twist-lock plug for secure connection and 18 NEMA 5-20R receptacles, offering ample outlets for servers, switches, and other IT infrastructure components. This unit is ideal for data center racks and network closets where consistent power delivery is critical. The 3-meter power cord provides flexibility in rack placement. The P18E23M ensures that your sensitive equipment receives stable power, minimizing downtime.

Compatibility

This PDU is compatible with standard 19-inch server racks and cabinets. The L5-30P plug requires a 30A, 120V L5-30R locking receptacle. The NEMA 5-20R receptacles accept standard NEMA 5-15P and 5-20P plugs, making it suitable for a wide range of IT equipment. It is designed for use with standard network switches, servers, and other rack-mount devices that do not require specialized power configurations.

Installation Notes

Ensure the PDU is installed in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. Connect the L5-30P plug to a properly rated and grounded L5-30R receptacle. Distribute the load evenly across the NEMA 5-20R receptacles to avoid overloading any single circuit or the PDU itself. Verify that the total power draw of connected equipment does not exceed the PDU's 30A capacity.
