Server Technology C2WG36CE-DQME2M33/GR Switched Rack PDU

Overview

The Server Technology C2WG36CE-DQME2M33/GR is a switched Power Over the Power Strip (POPS) Master PRO2 rack PDU built around a 36-outlet configuration — 30 C13 and 6 C19 receptacles — for data center racks running a mix of standard servers and higher-draw equipment like blade chassis, storage arrays, or network switches with C20 power inputs. This is a Master unit in Server Technology's PRO2 platform, meaning it's designed to anchor a metered/switched power chain in the rack rather than function as a standalone passive strip. For teams standardizing on a single rack power architecture across a row of cabinets, the C2WG36CE-DQME2M33/GR gives you the outlet mix to cover both 1U/2U server C14 cords and heavier C20 loads on one strip, which cuts down on the need for a second PDU per rack just to handle the odd C20 device.

Key Features

• 30 C13 outlets: covers the standard power inlet on the overwhelming majority of 1U and 2U rack servers, switches, and network appliances — you're not hunting for adapters on a typical server refresh.
• 6 C19 outlets: handles higher-amperage C20 power cords used by blade enclosures, large storage arrays, and some networking gear, so you don't need a separate high-current strip alongside this one.
• 36 total outlets on a single unit: consolidates power distribution for a densely populated rack onto one PDU, simplifying cable management and reducing the number of devices you're tracking in your power topology.
• Switched outlet control (POPS Master): as a Switched PDU in Server Technology's POPS family, outlets can be individually controlled — useful for remote power-cycling a hung server or network device without a truck roll to the data center.
• PRO2 platform Master unit role: built to serve as the primary/controlling unit in a PRO2 chain, which matters when you're architecting metering and control across multiple linked PDUs in the same rack or row.

Integration & Compatibility

Because the C2WG36CE-DQME2M33/GR is a Master unit in the PRO2 lineup, plan your rack power architecture around it as the controlling node before adding any linked or expansion units — get the Master/Link relationship right at design time rather than after the rack is populated. The mixed C13/C19 outlet layout means you should map out which devices need C13 vs C19 cords during rack planning; miscounting either outlet type on a dense build is the most common ordering mistake with this class of PDU. This model fits into a broader rack power distribution and monitoring strategy — pairing it with rack PDUs across a full row, or coordinating it with uninterruptible power supplies upstream, is worth mapping out before you commit to a single-strip layout, especially if you're standardizing power architecture across a data center buildout.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many outlets does the C2WG36CE-DQME2M33/GR have?

A: It has 36 total outlets: 30 C13 and 6 C19 receptacles.

Q: Is the C2WG36CE-DQME2M33/GR a switched PDU?

A: Yes — it's part of Server Technology's Switched POPS (Power Over the Power Strip) PRO2 line, identified as a Master unit.

Q: Can I mix C13 and C19 devices on this one PDU?

A: Yes, that's the point of the 30 C13 / 6 C19 outlet mix — it's built to serve both standard server power cords and higher-current C20 cords on a single strip.

Q: What does 'Master' mean on the C2WG36CE-DQME2M33/GR model designation?

A: In Server Technology's PRO2 platform, a Master unit is the primary/controlling PDU in a chain — plan it as the anchor point if you intend to link additional PDUs.

Karl Wilson

The outlet mix is what stands out on the C2WG36CE-DQME2M33/GR: 30 C13 and 6 C19 on one strip. That's a deliberate split — enough C13 for a full shelf of 1U/2U servers, plus dedicated C19 capacity for the handful of C20-corded devices that show up in almost every dense rack.

Technical Highlights:

• 30 C13 outlets: matches the C14 inlet on the vast majority of rack servers and switches, so cabling stays standard across the rack.
• 6 C19 outlets: gives you dedicated high-current capacity for blade chassis or storage arrays without a second strip.
• Switched Master unit (PRO2 platform): individual outlet control on a unit built to anchor a PRO2 power chain, which matters for remote-cycle workflows on 24/7 gear.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm the Master/Link topology for your rack before ordering additional PRO2 units — the Master role on this model is a planning constraint, not a cosmetic label.
• Count your C19-corded devices carefully during rack design; 6 outlets is generous for mixed racks but can run tight in storage-heavy configurations.

This is the right strip for a rack that's genuinely mixed — a shelf of standard servers plus a couple of blade or storage units needing C20 power — where running two separate PDUs for two connector types would waste rack space you don't have.
