Vertiv Rpdu Monitored Outlet Level EC 60A 208V Delta 17.2KW Horizontal (12) Combi - VP6N62A0

Vertiv VP6N62A0 Monitored Outlet-Level Rack PDU, 60A 208V Delta, 17.2kW, Horizontal

Overview

The Vertiv VP6N62A0 is a 0U horizontal rack PDU built for data centers and dense equipment deployments where per-outlet visibility matters. Rated at 60A / 208V Delta three-phase input and 17.2kW total capacity, it delivers twelve combination C13/C19 outlets on a single horizontal unit — enough to power a fully loaded rack of servers, storage arrays, or power distribution endpoints without a second PDU. What separates this unit from basic strip PDUs is outlet-level current, voltage, and power monitoring, giving ops teams the granular data they need to catch overloads before they become outages.

If you're building out a high-density compute row or a colocation cage and need per-outlet metering with enterprise network integration, the VP6N62A0 is the right instrument to specify.

Key Features

• 17.2kW / 60A Three-Phase Input: A 60A 208V Delta feed with 17.2kW capacity is sufficient for a full rack of high-density blade servers or GPU compute nodes. Three-phase input balances load across legs, reducing neutral current and protecting upstream circuit breakers — a real benefit in facilities with strict electrical load planning.
• Outlet-Level Monitoring (Current, Voltage, Power): Per-outlet telemetry on all twelve C13/C19 positions means you can see exactly which device is drawing how much power at any moment. This is the spec that justifies the step up from a metered-only PDU — when a server's power supply starts pulling abnormally, you know the port, not just the PDU total.
• 12 Combination C13/C19 Outlets: Combination outlets accept both standard C14-to-C13 and heavier C20-to-C19 device cords, so you're not locked into a single device power class. One PDU can simultaneously feed 1U servers, 2U GPU appliances, and 4U storage arrays without adapters.
• SNMP v1/v2c/v3 + Modbus TCP + Full Protocol Stack: The VP6N62A0 integrates with any DCIM or BMS platform that speaks SNMP, Modbus TCP, or HTTP/HTTPS. The protocol list — DHCP, LDAP, NTP, RADIUS, RSTP, SSH, SMTP, SNMP (v1/v2c/v3), Syslog, TACACS+, and Modbus TCP — covers enterprise authentication, logging, and data-center management without additional gateways. Pair this with a managed network switch and your PDU data lands directly in your monitoring stack.
• IPv4 and IPv6 Dual-Stack Networking: Native IPv6 support means the VP6N62A0 fits into next-generation data center network architectures without NAT workarounds. For organizations running dual-stack environments or actively migrating away from IPv4-only infrastructure, this is a requirement, not a nice-to-have.
• LDAP, RADIUS, and TACACS+ Authentication: Enterprise authentication integration eliminates local credential management on each PDU. Bind the VP6N62A0 to your existing directory infrastructure and access control policies apply automatically — important in multi-tenant colo environments and SOC 2-compliant facilities.
• LED Display + LED Indicators: An onboard LED display provides at-a-glance status without requiring a laptop or network connection during initial commissioning or physical troubleshooting. For technicians working in a noisy, cable-dense rack row, local readout is not optional — it's a time saver.
• 3m Input Cable: The 3-meter (approximately 9.8 ft) input cable provides enough reach to connect to a floor-mounted or overhead whip without extension hardware in most standard rack-row configurations. Confirm your specific whip position during PDU selection and planning if your facility uses overhead busway.
• 1x RJ-45 Ethernet + 1x USB + 1x Serial Port: The RJ-45 port handles network management. The USB port supports firmware updates and local configuration without network access — useful during initial deployment in a not-yet-networked cage. The serial port provides a direct console fallback for out-of-band management when network access is lost.
• Horizontal 0U Form Factor: Mounts in a standard rack unit position (not in the vertical side channel), which keeps your full 42U or 48U of device space intact. Horizontal mounting also simplifies cable management along the top or bottom of the rack compared to vertical side-mounted units in some configurations.
• 200–240V / 50/60Hz Input Range: The 200–240V AC input range accommodates both 208V (typical US three-phase) and 230V (international three-phase) facility power, making the VP6N62A0 deployable in multi-region facilities or data centers with mixed power infrastructure without re-specifying the PDU.

Integration and Compatibility

The VP6N62A0 integrates into enterprise data center infrastructure management platforms via SNMP v1/v2c/v3 and Modbus TCP — two protocols that cover the vast majority of DCIM tools, building management systems, and custom monitoring stacks. The full protocol complement (HTTPS, SSH, Syslog, SMTP alerting, NTP time sync) means this PDU functions as a first-class citizen in a managed infrastructure environment rather than an unmonitored power strip. RSTP support on the network interface provides loop protection if the PDU is connected to a redundant switch fabric. Authentication via LDAP, RADIUS, and TACACS+ lets security teams enforce role-based access through existing directory services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the maximum power capacity of the VP6N62A0?

A: The VP6N62A0 is rated at 17.2kW with a 60A maximum current draw on a 208V Delta three-phase input. This is the total PDU capacity — plan individual outlet loads so the aggregate stays within the 60A circuit limit.

Q: What outlet types does the VP6N62A0 provide?

A: It provides 12 combination outlets that accept both C13 (standard server/device) and C19 (higher-current device) cords. This eliminates the need for separate PDUs for mixed equipment power classes in the same rack.

Q: Does the VP6N62A0 support SNMP monitoring?

A: Yes. The VP6N62A0 supports SNMP v1, v2c, and v3, along with Modbus TCP, HTTP/HTTPS, SSH, Syslog, SMTP, LDAP, RADIUS, TACACS+, NTP, DHCP, RSTP, IPv4, and IPv6. This covers integration with virtually all enterprise DCIM, BMS, and network management platforms.

Q: Is the VP6N62A0 a metered or monitored PDU?

A: It is a monitored outlet-level PDU, which is a step above metered. Metered PDUs report total input current only. The VP6N62A0 monitors current, voltage, and power at each individual outlet — 12 discrete measurement points — enabling per-device load tracking and threshold alerting.

Q: What is the input voltage and phase configuration?

A: The VP6N62A0 accepts 200–240V AC, 50/60Hz, three-phase (208V Delta configuration). It is not compatible with single-phase 120V or 240V single-phase input — verify your facility's panel and whip configuration before ordering.

Q: Does the VP6N62A0 support out-of-band management?

A: Yes. In addition to the RJ-45 network management port, the unit includes a serial console port for direct out-of-band access when network connectivity is unavailable, and a USB port for local firmware updates and configuration.
