Vertiv VP7N20AA Concise Descriptor
Overview
The Vertiv VP7N20AA is a switched rack distribution unit (RDU) designed for remote power control and monitoring in high-density IT environments. It provides 20A capacity at 240/415V WYE, delivering 11.5KW of power in a vertical form factor suitable for standard 42U racks. This unit allows for granular control over individual outlets, enabling remote reboots of connected IT equipment to resolve hung systems or perform scheduled maintenance without physical access. The level monitoring provides real-time data on power consumption, helping to manage load balancing and prevent overloads.
Compatibility
This RDU is designed for integration into Vertiv's rack infrastructure and power distribution systems. It is compatible with Vertiv racks and cabinets that support vertical PDU mounting. Specific compatibility extends to Vertiv's IT management software platforms for remote monitoring and control, enabling seamless integration into existing data center management workflows. It is intended for use with IT equipment requiring 20A, 240/415V WYE power configurations.
Installation Notes
Installation requires a qualified electrician to connect the unit to the facility's main power distribution panel. The VP7N20AA utilizes a NEMA L6-20P input plug for 20A circuits. Proper torque must be applied to terminal connections to ensure reliable power delivery and prevent overheating. The vertical mounting orientation requires sufficient clearance within the rack for airflow and access to both the unit and connected equipment. Ensure the power source meets the 240/415V WYE specification.
