Description

Vertiv 38584 Metered PDU Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Vertiv 38584 is a 0U, metered, rackmount Power Distribution Unit (PDU) designed for high-density power delivery in data centers and network closets. It provides 20A of power at 120V, allowing you to monitor power consumption at the PDU level, which is critical for capacity planning and load balancing in environments where every rack unit counts. This unit's vertical, 0U form factor ensures it does not consume valuable horizontal rack space, maximizing the number of active devices you can deploy.

Compatibility

This PDU is designed for standard 19-inch server racks and cabinets. It is compatible with Vertiv's rack systems and other standard rack enclosures. The 120V, 20A input and output configuration makes it suitable for a wide range of IT equipment, including servers, switches, and storage devices that operate within these power parameters. It is a direct replacement or addition for existing power infrastructure requiring metered power monitoring.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard 120V, 20A circuit with an L5-20P receptacle. Ensure the circuit can support the total load of connected equipment. The 0U mounting design utilizes tool-less mounting clips or standard rack screws (not included) for vertical installation within the rack frame. Proper cable management is advised to maintain airflow and prevent strain on connections.
