Overview

The Vertiv 11996 is a 0U basic rack PDU designed for straightforward power distribution in standard server racks. It provides 20A of power at 120V, suitable for powering essential IT equipment like servers, switches, and network devices. Its vertical, 0U form factor ensures it occupies no horizontal rack space, maximizing room for your IT hardware. This unit includes surge protection to safeguard connected equipment from transient voltage spikes, a critical consideration for maintaining uptime in data centers and network closets.

Compatibility

This PDU is designed for use with standard 19-inch server racks. It is compatible with most rack-mounted IT equipment requiring 120V power and drawing up to 20A. While not specific to any single brand of server or network gear, it serves as a foundational power component for any rack build. It is intended for use in environments where basic, reliable power distribution and surge protection are required, such as small to medium business server rooms or network distribution points.

Installation Notes

The 0U mounting design allows for vertical installation within the rack's side channels. It requires a standard 120V, 20A NEMA 5-20P receptacle or equivalent. Ensure the power source can support the total load of the PDU and all connected devices. The unit's surge protection components are designed to handle typical transient events; for critical applications requiring advanced protection, consider a PDU with more robust surge suppression capabilities.
