APC by Schneider Electric AP8869-2UX737 Rack Power Distribution Unit 2U Metered 14.4KW 208V

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric AP8869-2UX737 is a 2U metered rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU) designed for high-density power distribution in enterprise data centers and network closets. It provides granular power monitoring at the PDU level, enabling you to track load and prevent overloads. This unit is critical for managing power consumption and ensuring the stability of IT equipment racks. Its 2U form factor is standard for rack-mounted infrastructure, making it a direct replacement or upgrade for existing PDUs.

Compatibility

This PDU is designed for integration into standard 19-inch racks. It requires a 208V input power source and is compatible with APC's EcoStruxure IT management platform for remote monitoring and alerting. While not tied to specific server or switch models, it is essential that your facility's power infrastructure can support its 14.4KW maximum load capacity and that the input plug type matches your available power outlets.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a qualified electrician to connect the PDU to a 208V power source. Ensure the rack has adequate airflow for the connected equipment. The unit's 2U height means it occupies two rack units, so plan your rack space accordingly. Torque specifications for terminal connections should be followed per Schneider Electric guidelines to ensure safe and reliable operation.
