Vertiv VP8965 Switched PDU

Overview

The Vertiv VP8965 is a vertical switched rack power distribution unit (rPDU) designed for high-density IT environments. It provides 24 outlets (18x Locking IEC C13, 6x Locking IEC C19) with unit-level monitoring capabilities, allowing for granular control and real-time power data. This unit is ideal for data centers and enterprise closets requiring precise power management and remote access, supporting a 30A, 120/208V WYE configuration with an 8.6kW load capacity. The VP8965 model facilitates remote management via dual Ethernet ports and supports a wide array of network protocols for seamless integration into existing infrastructure.

Compatibility

This rPDU is designed for standard 19-inch racks and cabinets. It is compatible with IT equipment requiring Locking IEC C13 and C19 power connections. The unit supports toolless mounting at specific spacing intervals (61.25in and 64.75in) within compatible rack systems. Its L21-30P plug type requires a 30A, 120/208V WYE circuit. The unit supports daisy-chaining up to 40 rPDUs, enabling scalable power distribution solutions.

Installation Notes

The VP8965 features a bottom front power entry location and a 10ft (3m) power cord. It supports toolless mounting at 61.25in and 64.75in intervals. The unit includes one RJ connection jack for remote sensors, supporting up to 16 sensors. Dual 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet ports provide network connectivity for remote management.
