Eaton Metered Input Rack PDU 1U — L6-30P, 200-240V, 10 ft Cord, 14-Outlets (10 C13, 4 C19)

Power reliability, visibility, and intelligent control are critical for data centers, edge deployments, and IT rooms. The Eaton Metered Input Rack PDU in a compact 1U footprint delivers smart power distribution with precise energy metering and robust remote monitoring. Designed to fit standard 19-inch racks, this PDU accepts a single-phase L6-30P input at 200-240V and distributes power across ten C13 outlets and four C19 outlets, backed by a generous 10-foot cord for flexible deployment. With metered input, you gain real-time visibility into the current draw of individual sections, enabling proactive capacity planning, load balancing, and energy optimization—without guesswork. The integrated network communication opens the door to centralized monitoring across large fleets of ePDUs, allowing your operations center to aggregate data from multiple units into a single, actionable dashboard. A local display on the unit provides immediate insights into phase balance and current draw, empowering technicians to identify imbalances and take corrective action on-site. Whether supporting servers, storage, networking gear, or telecom equipment, this PDU combines reliability, efficiency, and smart management in a compact, rack-ready package that simplifies power control and reduces downtime.

• 1U rack-mount design for space-efficient power distribution in dense racks, with a sturdy metal chassis and standardized 19-inch mounting compatibility to minimize installation time and maximize available rack space for critical equipment.
• Metered input with per-section current monitoring via built-in network communication, offering precise visibility into how each branch draws power. This enables proactive capacity planning, targeted load balancing, and energy optimization across single or multiple racks with real-time alerts and historical trending through compatible software.
• Centralized visibility across deployments: the capability to aggregate data from many ePDUs in one location using state-of-the-art software. This simplifies asset management, capacity forecasting, and reporting for IT administrators, facilities teams, and data center operators managing growing power loads.
• Local display for quick on-site assessment of phase balance and current draw, reducing the need to log into remote systems for routine checks. Technicians can quickly spot imbalances, verify distribution across phases, and take immediate corrective actions to maintain performance and efficiency.
• Outlet configuration and flexibility: 10 C13 outlets and 4 C19 outlets deliver versatile support for mixed equipment in a single PDU. The secure grip design helps maintain reliable connections, while the 10-foot cord provides flexible reach to power sources in a variety of rack layouts and room configurations.

How to Install Eaton Metered Input Rack PDU

• Prepare the rack and ensure compatibility with a standard 19-inch enclosure. Confirm there is adequate clearance for cable management and cooling, and identify a suitable location within the rack for accessible outlets.
• Mount the PDU into a 1U slot using the supplied rack mounting hardware. Align the unit securely and tighten mounting screws to prevent vibration and movement during operation.
• Connect the L6-30P input plug to a dedicated, properly rated 200-240V single-phase power source with appropriate circuit protection and grounding. Verify that the circuit can support the anticipated load and that all connections are secure.
• Route devices to the 10 C13 and 4 C19 outlets, organizing cables to maintain airflow and minimize strain on connectors. Label circuits if possible to ease future troubleshooting and maintenance.
• If remote monitoring is required, connect the PDU to the management network following your standard practices for Eaton monitoring software or compatible platforms. Power on the unit and verify readings on the local display and within the management interface, confirming successful integration and expected current measurements.
