Eaton EMA113-10 – 0U Vertical Managed Rack PDU

Product Overview

The Eaton EMA113-10 is a 0U vertical managed rack PDU built for integrators who need reliable 120V power distribution without consuming valuable rack unit space. Designed for server room and network closet installations, this managed rack PDU pairs 8 NEMA 5-20R outlets with remote outlet control and monitoring, making it a practical choice for a 0U vertical PDU installation behind a server cabinet or in a compact IT rack. It suits commercial AV/IT deployments where administrators need visibility into load without the cost of a switched, per-outlet metering PDU.

Product Description

The Eaton EMA113-10 mounts vertically in the rear channel of a standard 19-inch rack, freeing horizontal rack space for servers, switches, and AV processing gear. It accepts a single 120V, 16A input through a NEMA 5-20P/L5-20P plug and distributes power across 8 NEMA 5-20R outlets rated to 1.92 kW maximum. Because it occupies 0U, this managed PDU for server rack applications is well suited to network closets and small-to-mid-size server rooms where rack height is at a premium.

As a managed rack PDU, the EMA113-10 reports load information over an RS-232 serial interface and supports Eaton's network management card accessory for remote monitoring over Ethernet, giving facilities and IT managers a way to track amperage draw and flag overload conditions before they trip a breaker. This level of visibility is useful in colocation cabinet and government space deployments where uptime reporting and remote diagnostics are part of standard operating procedure.

Integrators speccing power for AV racks, camera processing racks, or edge network closets can use the EMA113-10 to add monitored power without adding switching complexity or cost. The compact 2-inch-wide profile keeps cable management simple in tight cabinets, and the 10-foot power cord provides flexibility when routing to overhead or under-floor power whips common in data center and server room installations.

The unit ships with vertical mounting brackets for tool-less installation in most rack rail systems, and its low-profile housing keeps airflow largely unobstructed when installed along the rear rack posts. For commercial AV/IT buyers standardizing on Eaton's managed PDU line, the EMA113-10 is a straightforward entry point for 120V single-phase environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Eaton EMA113-10 compatible with standard 19-inch server racks?

Yes. The EMA113-10 mounts vertically in the rear channel of standard 19-inch, 4-post racks using included mounting brackets, and its 0U profile means it does not reduce available rack unit space for servers or network equipment.

What is required to install the EMA113-10 in a network closet?

Installation requires a 120V, 16A branch circuit with a NEMA 5-20 or L5-20 receptacle. The PDU mounts to the rear rail with the included brackets, and the 10-foot cord routes to the nearest power source.

Can the EMA113-10 integrate with existing IT or AV monitoring systems?

The PDU communicates load data over RS-232, and Eaton offers optional network management card accessories that allow the PDU to be added to a network monitoring or building management system for remote visibility.

Does the EMA113-10 support individual outlet switching?

The EMA113-10 is a managed PDU that provides monitoring and outlet control at the unit level; buyers needing individual outlet-level switching should confirm firmware and accessory options with Eaton or Creation Networks before ordering.

What warranty does the Eaton EMA113-10 carry?

Eaton backs the EMA113-10 with a 3-year limited warranty. Contact Eaton or Creation Networks for complete warranty terms and service options.

Does Creation Networks provide support for sizing and installing this PDU?
