Server Technology C2L36TE-YCMFAM99 Switched Rack PDU

Overview

The Server Technology C2L36TE-YCMFAM99 is a rack-mountable Smart Link PRO2 power distribution unit built for data center and server room racks that need remote-manageable, high-density power with real monitoring — not just a switched strip. It takes a single 208V AC feed through a NEMA L21-30P input and spreads it across 36 total outlets (18x IEC 60320 C13, 18x IEC 60320 Cx, plus 3x NEMA 5-20R), giving you the outlet count to run a fully populated server rack, a network closet, or a surveillance head-end off one PDU instead of daisy-chaining multiple units. Network administrators managing racks full of switches, NVRs, and servers get outlet-level control over Ethernet or serial without walking the row. The C2L36TE-YCMFAM99 fits environments where remote power-cycling a hung device beats a truck roll.

Key Features

• 36 total outlets (18x C13, 18x Cx, 3x NEMA 5-20R): mixed IEC and NEMA outlets on one PDU means you're not stuck running adapters for legacy equipment with standard 5-20 plugs alongside C13/C14 server power cords — one unit covers both worlds in a mixed rack.
• 208V AC input via NEMA L21-30P: a 30A twist-lock input matches standard data center whip circuits, letting the PDU pull the amperage a fully loaded 36-outlet rack actually needs without derating headaches.
• Dual Ethernet 10/100 and RS-232 management: reach the PDU over the network for day-to-day control, and fall back to a direct serial console connection for initial configuration or when the network segment is down — a real out-of-band option when the LAN itself is the problem.
• Remote protocol support — Telnet, SNMP 2c, HTTP, HTTPS, SFTP: HTTPS and SFTP give you encrypted management and file transfer instead of plaintext-only access, which matters if this PDU sits inside a segment with any compliance scrutiny. SNMP 2c lets it report into existing DCIM or NOC monitoring instead of living as an island.
• Rack-mountable 2.2 in x 2.5 in x 70 in form factor: the narrow 2.2 x 2.5-inch cross-section is built for vertical zero-U mounting in the rear of the rack, so it doesn't eat a horizontal rack unit you'd rather use for compute or network gear — the 70-inch length spans a full-height cabinet.
• New OEM Original condition: factory-new unit, not refurbished or pulled — relevant when you're deploying into production infrastructure where a used PDU is not an acceptable risk.

Integration & Compatibility

Because the C2L36TE-YCMFAM99 speaks SNMP 2c and standard HTTP/HTTPS, it integrates into existing network monitoring stacks and can sit alongside other power distribution units under the same management umbrella. The Ethernet 10/100 interface handles day-to-day polling and outlet control, while the RS-232 port is there for console-level access during commissioning or troubleshooting — worth planning for in your rack cabling if you want true out-of-band reach. If you're speccing power for a rack of network video recorders or switching gear, pair this PDU's outlet count against your actual device load before ordering, since the 36 outlets split across three connector types rather than 36 identical C13s. For broader rack power planning across a data center or surveillance head-end, a PoE and power planning guide is useful groundwork before finalizing PDU count and amperage per rack. This model is also searchable as C2L36TE-YCMFAM99, sometimes written C2L36TE YCMFAM99 without the hyphen, and belongs to the broader Server Technology power distribution line.

Frequently Asked Questions

What stands out on the C2L36TE-YCMFAM99 is the outlet mix — 18 C13, 18 Cx, and 3 NEMA 5-20R on a single 208V feed. That's not a generic strip; it's built for racks running a blend of standard server power cords and legacy 5-20 equipment side by side.

Technical Highlights:

• 36 total outlets across 3 connector types: covers mixed-equipment racks without adapter cables — 18 IEC C13 for server/switch PSUs, 18 IEC Cx, and 3 NEMA 5-20R for standard-plug gear.
• 208V input via NEMA L21-30P (30A twist-lock): matches standard data center whip circuits, so amperage headroom isn't a concern when the rack is fully loaded.
• Dual management paths — Ethernet 10/100 plus RS-232: SNMP 2c, HTTP, HTTPS, SFTP, and Telnet all run over the network port, with RS-232 as a true out-of-band fallback when the network segment itself is the problem.

Deployment Considerations:

• At 70 inches long with a 2.2 x 2.5-inch cross-section, this is a vertical zero-U mount — plan rear rack clearance before ordering, not after it arrives.
• SNMP 2c is supported, not SNMP v3 — factor that into your security posture if the network segment has stricter monitoring requirements.

This is the right PDU for a full-height data center or network operations rack where the equipment mix includes both standard IEC server cords and older NEMA 5-20 gear, and where remote outlet control over SNMP or HTTPS during off-hours matters more than a bare-bones unmanaged strip.
