Switched 0U Vertical PDU
The APC AP8930 is a switched rack-mount power distribution unit that delivers 120 V output through twenty-four NEMA 5-20R receptacles. It accepts a NEMA L5-20P input plug on a 10 ft cord and is rated for a maximum input current of 20 A with a regulatory derated limit of 16 A. The unit mounts vertically in a 0U form factor and operates in environments from -5 °C to 45 °C. Remote outlet switching and real-time current metering allow administrators to reboot attached gear and monitor load levels from a distance.
Replaces basic PDUs without switching
This unit replaces a non-switched PDU when you need per-outlet power cycling, user-defined power sequencing, and alarm thresholds that warn before a circuit overload occurs. The jump is worth it for racks that host critical servers or network gear requiring remote reboot capability and ordered startup to avoid inrush current trips. If your existing PDU already provides outlet-level control and metering, the upgrade adds no new function.
Check input plug and rack space
Verify that your facility provides a NEMA L5-20P receptacle on a 120 V, 20 A branch circuit and that the 10 ft cord reaches the power source. Confirm the rack has vertical mounting channels compatible with 0U brackets and enough clearance for twenty-four outlets plus the inlet cord. Ensure the operating temperature range of -5 °C to 45 °C matches the room conditions and that a temperature/humidity sensor can be added if environmental monitoring is required.

| Features | APC Switched Rack Power Distribution Units (PDUs) enable advanced, user-customizable power control and active monitoring. Remote outlet level controls allow power on/off functionality for power recycling to remotely reboot equipment and restrict unauthorized use of individual outlets. Power sequencing delays allow users to define the order in which to power up or down attached equipment. Avoid circuit overload during power recovery and extend uptime of critical equipment by prioritizing the load shedding. Current metering provides real-time remote monitoring of connected loads.

Questions about this item
Will the 10 ft cord with its NEMA L5-20P plug reach my 120V 20A circuit from a vertical 0U mounting position?
The 10 ft cord and NEMA L5-20P plug are designed for 120V 20A supply; the 0U vertical format mounts in the rack so the inlet can be positioned close to the branch circuit.
Which brackets and tools are used to secure the 0U vertical chassis, and what step is often missed?
The included rack-mounting brackets attach to the PDU chassis; the step often missed is tightening all bracket screws before connecting the 24 NEMA 5-20R outlets to equipment.
How do I know when the internal 16 A derated limit is being approached so I can redistribute loads?
Real-time current metering and user-defined alarms report load levels through the Web, SNMP or Telnet interfaces, letting you rebalance before the 16 A derated threshold is reached.
