Server Technology C2X36CE-DQME2M66 0U Switched Rack PDU

The C2X36CE-DQME2M66 is a 0U vertical switched power distribution unit built for data center racks that need high-density outlet counts without eating into usable rack space. Rated for 208V 3-phase delta input at 60A, it delivers up to 17.3kW of total power capacity across 36 outlets — a configuration sized for dense server or network racks where a single 1U or 2U horizontal PDU would run out of outlets fast.

Overview

This C2X36CE-DQME2M66 unit is part of the Server Technology PRO2 Switched product series, built around 3-phase power delivery and a 0U rackmount form factor that mounts vertically along the rear of the rack rail rather than consuming horizontal rack units. That matters most in racks already tight on 1U/2U space for compute or switching gear.

Key Features

• 36 total outlets (24× IEC C13 + 12× IEC C19): the C13/C19 mix covers both standard servers and higher-draw equipment like blade chassis or larger switches on the same strip, so you're not running a separate PDU for high-current gear.
• 17.3kW total power capacity: sizing headroom for dense racks running multiple servers plus networking gear without splitting the load across two PDUs.
• 208V 3-phase delta input: matches standard data center 3-phase distribution, balancing load more evenly across phases than a single-phase feed at equivalent capacity.
• 60A input current with IEC 60309 3P+PE input connector: a locking industrial-grade input connector rated for the full 60A draw — reduces the risk of accidental disconnect under vibration or cable movement compared to a standard plug.
• 10ft input cord: enough reach to route to an overhead busway or PDU whip without an extension, though rack position relative to the power source is worth checking before ordering.
• 0U rackmount form factor: mounts vertically, so it doesn't compete with servers and switches for horizontal U space — a real factor in fully populated racks.
• 50/60 Hz frequency support: works on both North American and international 50Hz distribution without a separate SKU.

Integration & Compatibility

As a switched PDU, this unit is intended for racks where remote outlet-level control and monitoring are part of the power management plan — a fit for data center or network components deployments already standardizing on managed power. Confirm your upstream panel and whip are provisioned for 208V 3-phase 60A service before ordering, since 3-phase delta input isn't interchangeable with single-phase or wye-configured circuits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What input voltage and phase configuration does the C2X36CE-DQME2M66 use?

A: It runs on 208V AC, 3-phase delta input, rated at 60A through an IEC 60309 3P+PE connector.

Q: How many outlets does the C2X36CE-DQME2M66 have and what type?

A: 36 total outlets: 24× IEC C13 and 12× IEC C19.

Q: What is the total power capacity of the C2X36CE-DQME2M66?

A: 17.3kW.

Q: Does the C2X36CE-DQME2M66 mount in a standard rack?

A: Yes — it's a 0U rackmount unit, meaning it mounts vertically and does not consume horizontal rack unit space.

Q: How long is the input power cord on the C2X36CE-DQME2M66?

A: 10ft.

The C2X36CE-DQME2M66 (often searched as C2X36CE DQME2M66) is a 3-phase delta PDU, and that detail changes how you plan the circuit — it's not a drop-in swap for a wye-configured feed, so verify your panel output before this ships.

Technical Highlights:

• 17.3kW capacity at 60A/208V 3-phase: gives you real headroom in a fully loaded rack running mixed compute and network gear off one strip.
• 36-outlet mix (24× C13 + 12× C19): the C19 outlets matter for anything drawing more than a standard server load — blade enclosures, larger switches — without needing a second PDU.
• 0U vertical form factor: frees every U of rack space for compute instead of power distribution, which adds up fast in a 42U rack.

Deployment Considerations:

• The IEC 60309 3P+PE input connector and 60A rating mean your upstream whip or panel circuit needs to match exactly — this isn't a standard NEMA plug-in.
• The 10ft input cord is fixed; measure the run from your PDU/whip drop to the rack before assuming it reaches, especially in end-of-row cabinet positions.

This is the right unit for a data center operator standardizing a row of racks on 3-phase delta power who needs outlet-level density (36 ports) without sacrificing rack U space — not a fit for facilities running single-phase 120/208V wye distribution.
