Vertical 0U PDU with 16 outlets
The Tripp Lite PDUV1548 is a basic power distribution unit that delivers 120V AC power to rack-mounted equipment. It provides 16 NEMA 5-15R outlets fed by a 15-foot cord with a NEMA 5-15P plug. The unit supports a maximum output of 1440W at a derated input current of 12A.
Suits racks needing simple outlet expansion
This PDU fits network closets, server rooms and AV racks where only unmonitored power distribution is required. The 48-inch vertical form factor mounts in a 19-inch rack without using horizontal rack units. Buyers who need outlet-level monitoring, switched outlets or input voltages other than 120V should consider other options.
15A circuit breaker protects connected loads
A single 15A circuit breaker provides overload protection for all 16 outlets. The lighted on/off switch includes a transparent cover to prevent accidental shutdowns. This breaker rating is the key specification that determines whether the PDU can handle the combined draw of your connected devices.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the PDU is distributing power correctly after mounting it in the rack?
Verify the lighted on/off switch is illuminated and connected equipment powers on without tripping the 15A circuit breaker.
What mounting hardware is included and what must I source separately for a standard 19-inch rack installation?
The package includes toolless mounting buttons plus clips and hardware for 19-inch EIA racks; no extra rack hardware is required.
Which input current rating should I plan for — the 15A maximum or the 12A derated value — when sizing the upstream circuit?
Design the upstream circuit for the regulatory derated input current of 12A to stay within continuous-load limits.
