Rack power distribution for 208 V environments
This Vertiv Geist Basic rack PDU delivers 4.9 kW at 208 V through twelve IEC C13 outlets fed by a single L6-30P plug. It suits network closets and short cabinets where horizontal mounting keeps connections accessible. The unit is UL and c-UL listed to 60950, FCC Part 15 Class A certified, RoHS and TAA compliant.
Passive thermal profile with no active cooling
The basic rPDU contains no fans or moving parts so it adds no audible noise to the rack and draws no power beyond the connected load. Its 1U horizontal form factor fits standard EIA rails without blocking airflow to adjacent equipment. Normal operation stays within the 30 A input rating as long as total attached draw remains below 4.9 kW.
Tool-less mounting and registration benefit
Included toolless mounting buttons let technicians secure the PDU in seconds without loose hardware. Registering the unit within 120 days extends the standard three-year warranty to five years at no extra cost. No software, meters or network interfaces are bundled; the device remains a pure power-distribution appliance.

Questions about this item
How do I mount the 1U horizontal PDU in a standard rack, and which step do people skip?
Use the included brackets to secure the 17-inch-wide unit in a 1U space; the step often missed is tightening both front and rear screws so the 6.5-inch depth sits flush and the L6-30P cord routes without strain.
What maintenance or replacement will the PDU need over its service life?
No user-serviceable parts exist; the unit is individually tested before shipping and carries a three-year warranty extendable to five years if registered within 120 days, so plan only for eventual full-unit replacement.
At what load does the 30 A circuit breaker become the limiting factor during sustained operation?
The breaker trips at 30 A, which equals 4.9 kW at 208 V; sustained draw above that level will disconnect power to all 12 C13 outlets.
