Server Technology C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99 Switched Rack PDU

The Server Technology C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99 is a switched, per-outlet-metered Smart POPS Primary PRO2 power distribution unit built for data center and server room racks that need remote outlet control and branch-level current visibility. It takes a 208V, 30A feed through a NEMA L21-30P input plug and distributes it across a mixed outlet set rated for both C13/Cx and NEMA loads, with an 8.6kW total input power capacity. If you're standardizing rack power across a colo footprint or a multi-cabinet server room, the C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99 gives you outlet-level switching and current draw data without adding a separate monitoring appliance.

Overview

This is a vertical 0U-style unit at 80 inches tall, 2.2 inches wide, and 2.5 inches deep — designed to mount in the rear channel of a rack cabinet without consuming U-space that could otherwise hold servers or network gear. Input comes in at 208V, 50/60 Hz, through a NEMA L21-30P plug rated for 30A input current (24A rated continuous load), which lines up with standard 3-phase or split-phase data center whip circuits. A 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port puts the unit on the management network for remote outlet switching and load monitoring.

Key Features

• 8.6kW Input Power Capacity: Sized for dense rack loads — servers, switches, and storage arrays drawing continuous power without tripping upstream breakers, which matters when you're filling a cabinet with 1U/2U compute.
• 30A NEMA L21-30P Input, 24A Rated Current: Matches common data center whip and PDU-feed circuits, so electricians sizing branch circuits have a known, documented draw to plan against.
• Per-Outlet C13/Cx/NEMA Ratings (≤12A–16A): Mixed outlet types on one strip mean you're not stuck running separate PDUs for IEC C14 server power cords and NEMA-plug equipment in the same rack.
• Branch Circuit Breaker Protection (≤16A, 10 kAIC): Each branch is individually breaker-protected with a 10,000A interrupt rating, so a downstream short trips a local breaker instead of taking down the whole PDU or upstream panel.
• Input/Output/Branch Current Accuracy (±1%/±1%/±3%): Metering precise enough to trust for capacity planning — you can size rack loads against real measured draw instead of nameplate estimates, which matters when you're trying to squeeze more gear onto an existing circuit.
• 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Management: Gigabit-capable network port for remote outlet control and monitoring, so you're not walking the data center floor to power-cycle a hung server.
• Quiescent Power Draw Under 10W: The PDU's own overhead barely registers against an 8.6kW capacity budget — negligible parasitic load on the circuit you're metering.
• Wide Operating Temperature Range (32°F to 140°F): Rated for data center hot-aisle conditions well above typical server room ambient, giving headroom if cooling is marginal in a corner rack.
• Operating Elevation to 6,500ft: Usable at higher-altitude data center sites without derating concerns that lower-rated equipment runs into.
• UL 62368-1 / CSA C22.2 No. 62368-1 / FCC Part 15 Class A Certified: Covers US and Canadian safety compliance plus Class A EMC clearance for commercial IT equipment environments, which facilities and compliance teams will ask for during rack power sign-off.

Integration & Compatibility

The C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99 (often searched as C2SG48TE YCMFAM99) is built for standard rack-mount data center deployments where per-outlet switching and branch metering are part of the power management plan — pairing naturally with the network video recorders and switching gear typically racked alongside it. For facilities planning out circuit capacity across multiple cabinets, review a PoE and power planning guide before finalizing whip sizing, since branch breaker ratings here top out at 16A per circuit. It's a good fit alongside network switches and server hardware in the same rack, and belongs in the broader Server Technology catalog when standardizing PDU models across a data center footprint within the power distribution units category.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What input plug does the C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99 use?

A: It terminates in a NEMA L21-30P input plug rated for 30A at 208V, 50/60 Hz.

Q: How many outlets does the C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99 have?

A: It's a 48-outlet unit with mixed C13, Cx, and NEMA outlet ratings, each protected by individual branch circuit breakers rated up to 16A.

Q: Can I monitor outlet-level power draw remotely on the C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99?

A: Yes — it includes a 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port with input, output, and branch current metering accurate to ±1%/±1%/±3% respectively.

Q: What's the operating temperature range for the C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99?

A: 32°F to 140°F (0°C to 60°C) with 8% to 90% RH non-condensing humidity, suitable for standard and hot-aisle data center environments.

Q: What certifications does the C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99 carry?

A: UL 62368-1, CSA C22.2 No. 62368-1, FCC Part 15 Class A, and CAN ICES-003 Class A.

The spec that jumps out on the C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99 is the branch current accuracy: ±3% at the branch level, tightening to ±1% on input and output metering. For a PDU carrying 8.6kW across 48 outlets, that's precise enough to actually trust for capacity planning instead of padding estimates with guesswork.

Technical Highlights:

• 208V/30A Input via NEMA L21-30P: Rated 24A continuous against a 30A plug rating — standard practice for NEC 80% continuous-load derating, so don't plan your circuit at the full 30A nameplate number.
• 10 kAIC Branch Breaker Rating: Each of the individually breakered branches (≤16A) interrupts up to 10,000A, which contains a downstream fault to that branch instead of nuisance-tripping the whole strip.
• Quiescent Draw Under 10W: Against an 8.6kW budget, the PDU's own overhead is a rounding error — essentially all your metered capacity goes to actual IT load.

Deployment Considerations:

• The 80-inch vertical form factor (2.2in x 2.5in footprint) is built for 0U rear-rail mounting — confirm rear channel clearance on the target cabinet before ordering, since this isn't a horizontal 1U/2U unit.
• Outlet ratings top out at 16A per branch even though total input capacity is 8.6kW — plan load distribution across branches rather than assuming any single outlet can carry a high-draw device near the branch ceiling.

This is the right PDU for a colo or enterprise data center rack standardizing on switched, per-outlet-metered power with gigabit Ethernet management — particularly racks mixing C13 server cords with NEMA-plug equipment on one strip, where the C2SG48TE-YCMFAM99's mixed outlet set avoids running a second PDU.
