Vertical rack power distribution
The Middle Atlantic PWR-8-V is an eight-outlet vertical power strip designed for installation inside Essex-series equipment racks. It accepts a standard NEMA 5-15P input plug and delivers eight AC receptacles for rack-mounted devices. The unit includes a nine-foot cord for flexible placement within the cabinet.
Replaces basic horizontal strips
This vertical orientation replaces horizontal power strips that consume rack units, freeing that space for active equipment. The jump is worth it when rack density is high and every unit counts, or when cable routing benefits from a side-mounted vertical run. UL and cULus 1363 certification covers the electrical safety requirements.
Fits Essex RCS and QAR racks
The strip mounts to compatible Middle Atlantic racks using the supplied brackets, wood screws, block nuts and bracket screws. Its compact profile sits flush against the rack rail, leaving the front clearance open for servers and patch panels. The nine-foot cord reaches floor or overhead power sources without excess slack.

Questions about this item
How does the PWR-8-V mount inside an Essex rack?
The included mounting bracket secures the strip vertically with the supplied wood screws and block nuts; the step often missed is aligning the bracket slots before tightening the bracket screws.
What is the input connection and cord length?
It uses a NEMA 5-15P plug on a 9 ft cord, so the rack must be within that reach of a standard 15 A wall outlet.
Which safety standard covers this power strip?
The unit is tested to UL 1363 and carries the cULus mark for use in US and Canadian installations.
