Panduit P48E12M Power Distribution Unit
Overview
The Panduit P48E12M is a 1U rackmount Power Distribution Unit (PDU) designed for high-density data center and network closet deployments. It provides 42 C13 outlets and 6 C19 outlets, fed by a single 30A, 120V input. This unit is critical for consolidating power delivery to IT equipment, simplifying cable management, and maximizing rack space utilization. The P48E12M is suitable for environments requiring robust, reliable power distribution to multiple devices.
Compatibility
This PDU is compatible with standard 19-inch server racks and cabinets. It is designed to power a wide range of IT equipment including servers, network switches, storage arrays, and other rack-mounted devices that utilize C14 or C20 power inlets. The C19 outlets are specifically rated for higher current draw, suitable for power-hungry equipment like larger servers or blade chassis power supplies.
Installation Notes
Installation requires a 30A, 120V circuit with a NEMA L5-30P receptacle. Ensure the circuit is properly rated and protected by a breaker. The unit mounts horizontally in a standard 1U rack space. Proper airflow management within the rack is essential to prevent overheating of connected equipment and the PDU itself.
