12-outlet 1U rack PDU

This Tripp Lite power distribution unit fits a single rack space and provides twelve NEMA 5-20R receptacles split evenly between front and rear faces. It delivers 120 V AC at 20 A through a 15-foot cord terminated with a NEMA 5-20P plug. The unit is designed for network-grade environments where dense outlet access is required.

Verify rack and circuit compatibility

Confirm that your rack accepts standard 19-inch equipment and has at least 1U of vertical clearance for the 20.5 by 9.4 by 2.4-inch chassis. Ensure the upstream circuit supplies 120 V at 50 or 60 Hz and is protected by a 20 A breaker matching the NEMA 5-20P inlet. Check that connected devices use NEMA 5-20R plugs and that total load stays within the 20 A rating.

Steel chassis with front and rear access

The black metal housing weighs 4.6 pounds and mounts in a standard 19-inch rack using the included brackets, with zero-U mounting possible in many enclosures. Six outlets on each face allow short cable runs to equipment mounted at the front or rear of the rack. The fixed 15-foot input cord routes power from a floor or overhead PDU without additional extensions.

Questions about this item

Does the PDU include mounting brackets or do I need to buy them separately?

The unit fits one 1U space in a standard 19 inch rack and zero U mounting is possible in many racks; no separate bracket purchase is mentioned.

Should I choose this 20 A model or a lower amperage version for my rack?

This model provides a 20 A NEMA 5-20P input plug and 12 NEMA 5-20R outlets rated for 120 V, 50/60 Hz; select it when your circuit and equipment require 20 A capacity.

What does the 20 A rating mean once the strip is installed in my rack?

It means the PDU can continuously supply up to 20 A at 120 V across its 12 outlets (6 front, 6 rear) through the 15 ft cord, provided the branch circuit is also rated for 20 A.
