1U 16-Outlet Metered PDU

The StarTech 16NM8-RACK-MOUNT-PDU is a 1U horizontal rackmount power distribution unit with sixteen NEMA 5-15R outlets. It provides metered monitoring of voltage, current, wattage and power factor for IT equipment in 19-inch server racks. The unit includes an 8 ft NEMA 5-15P input cord and a built-in 15A circuit breaker. It suits administrators who need real-time load visibility on a single rack strip.

1500 VA Load Capacity and Derated Input

The PDU supports a load capacity of 1500 VA with a maximum input current of 15A and a regulatory derated input of 12A. The metered display shows real-time power parameters so operators can balance circuits before the breaker trips. It handles typical server and networking gear within the 120V nominal supply range. Installations that exceed the derated 12A continuous limit will need additional distribution units.

Cold-Rolled Steel Build and EIA-310 Mounting

The housing uses cold-rolled steel with a textured black finish for durability in rack environments. It mounts horizontally in EIA-310-D compliant 19-inch racks at least 4 in deep, with twelve rear outlets and four front outlets for flexible cable routing. A surge protection LED indicates MOV status, and a safety cover prevents accidental breaker resets. The unit operates from 0°C to 40°C and stores from -10°C to 50°C.

Questions about this item

Will the 1U horizontal form factor fit my existing EIA-310-D 19-inch rack that is 10.1 cm deep?

Yes, the 1U horizontal design mounts in any EIA-310-D compliant 19-inch rack or cabinet with a depth of 10.1 cm or greater.

How can I verify the PDU is protecting my equipment after installation?

Check the front-panel surge-protection LED; a green light confirms active protection, while an unlit LED means the MOV circuit has tripped and protection is no longer present.

Does the package include mounting hardware or only the PDU and guide?

The box contains the metered PDU with its attached 2.4 m NEMA 5-15P cord and a quick-start guide; mounting screws or brackets are not included and must be sourced separately.
