3.7kW 208/230V Single-Phase Local Metered PDU - 8 C13 & 2 C19 Outlets, L6-20P Input, 6 ft. Cord, 1U, TAA

Ideal Use Cases

The PDUMH20HVL66 is built for rack environments that need compact, organized power distribution with straightforward visibility at the unit itself. With a 1U rackmount form factor, 208/230V single-phase input, and 3.7kW power capacity, it fits well in installations where rack space is limited but outlet flexibility is still important.

This model is especially well suited for:

• Server rooms using a mix of network, compute, and storage equipment
• Network racks with switches, routers, and supporting infrastructure
• AV and control system racks that combine standard IEC C13-connected gear with equipment requiring IEC C19 connections
• Equipment cabinets where local metering is useful during setup, load balancing, and routine checks
• Standardized deployments that benefit from a clean 1U power distribution layout

Because it includes 8 IEC C13 outlets and 2 IEC C19 outlets, the unit supports mixed-load cabinets without forcing you into a single outlet type. That makes it a practical choice when one rack may include smaller devices alongside higher-demand hardware that uses C19 plugs.

Why Choose This Model

Buyers looking for a dependable rack PDU often need three things: efficient use of rack space, the right outlet mix, and simple power awareness. The PDUMH20HVL66 addresses those needs without adding unnecessary complexity. Its local metered design gives you basic monitoring directly at the PDU, which can be helpful when commissioning a rack, checking load distribution, or reviewing power use during maintenance.

Key reasons this model stands out for the right application include:

• 3.7kW capacity for 208/230V single-phase rack power distribution
• 1U design that preserves valuable rack space
• 8 x IEC C13 outlets for common IT and AV equipment
• 2 x IEC C19 outlets for devices with higher-power inlet requirements
• L6-20P input for compatible power infrastructure
• 6 ft. cord to support practical rack-side routing

For buyers who do not need networked management and instead want organized distribution with at-unit monitoring, this model offers a focused solution that aligns well with everyday rack deployment needs.

Installation and Integration

The PDUMH20HVL66 is designed for 1U rackmount installation, making it easy to integrate into standard rack layouts where density and cable organization matter. Its compact profile helps leave more room for active equipment while still delivering ten total outlets across two common IEC formats.

When planning installation, verify that your power environment matches the unit’s 208/230V single-phase requirement and that the source connection is appropriate for the L6-20P input. The included 6 ft. cord gives installers flexibility when positioning the PDU within the rack and routing to the power source.

Integration is straightforward in cabinets that contain a variety of connected devices. Use the IEC C13 outlets for standard rack equipment and reserve the IEC C19 outlets for compatible higher-draw devices. In mixed IT and AV environments, this outlet combination can simplify deployment by reducing the need for separate power distribution hardware.

For best results during setup:

• Confirm the rack power source matches the input configuration
• Plan cord routing to avoid strain and maintain service access
• Group connected equipment by inlet type for cleaner installation
• Use the local metering feature to check load conditions during commissioning

Performance Highlights

This PDU is designed to deliver organized AC power distribution where reliability and visibility are priorities. Its 3.7kW rating supports a substantial rack load for many common IT and AV applications, while the 208/230V single-phase design aligns with installations that use higher-voltage rack power.

Performance-related highlights include:

• 3.7kW power handling for rack-based equipment loads
• 208/230V single-phase operation
• 10 total outlets: 8 C13 and 2 C19
• Local metering for basic at-unit power awareness
• Space-saving 1U form factor

The local metered format is particularly useful for teams that want immediate, on-site visibility rather than remote management features. During deployment or maintenance, that can make it easier to confirm usage at the rack and support more informed load planning.

What Makes It Different

What separates the PDUMH20HVL66 from more basic rack power strips is its combination of outlet versatility, local metering, and compact installation footprint. Many racks contain a blend of standard devices and equipment with different power connector requirements. By providing both 8 IEC C13 and 2 IEC C19 outlets in a 1U chassis, this model is positioned for those mixed-load scenarios.

It also appeals to buyers who want practical monitoring without moving to a more complex managed PDU category. The ability to view power information locally can be enough for many server rooms, network cabinets, and AV racks where the goal is organized distribution and simple load awareness.

In short, this model differentiates itself through:

• A mixed outlet configuration suited to real-world rack equipment combinations
• Local metering that supports setup and maintenance tasks
• A 1U design that helps maximize usable rack space
• An L6-20P input and 6 ft. cord for clean deployment in compatible environments

Final Assessment

The PDUMH20HVL66 is a strong fit for buyers who need a compact, local metered 208/230V single-phase rack PDU with a useful mix of IEC outlet types. It is well matched to server rooms, network racks, and AV cabinets where 1U efficiency, organized power delivery, and basic at-rack monitoring matter more than advanced remote management.

If your installation requires 8 IEC C13 outlets, 2 IEC C19 outlets, an L6-20P input, and a 6 ft. cord in a 1U form factor, this model offers a practical and deployment-friendly solution. For mixed-load rack environments that benefit from simple local power visibility, it is an easy choice to consider.
