This vertical rack PDU installation approach mounts along the side rail of a cabinet, leaving all 1U\/2U\/3U bays free for servers, switches, and network equipment. With 24 NEMA 5-15R outlets and network-based monitoring, it suits server rooms, network closets, and colocation cabinets running standard 120V IT loads that need circuit-level visibility without consuming any front rack space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe EMI100-10 accepts a 120V, 12A single-phase input through a NEMA 5-15P plug and distributes power across 24 NEMA 5-15R outlets rated to a 1.44 kW maximum, making it a good fit for racks with numerous low-draw devices such as switches, access points, KVM equipment, or AV encoders. Its 0U vertical form factor mounts to the rear or side rails of a standard cabinet rather than occupying horizontal rack units, which is a common strategy in dense server room and colocation cabinet deployments where every 1U of front rack space is reserved for compute or network gear. At roughly 66.5 inches tall and just over 2 inches wide and deep, the unit runs the full height of a typical 42U rack, giving techs outlet access at every rack level without routing power cords across the front of the cabinet. The EMI100-10 includes an Ethernet interface in addition to RS-232 serial connectivity, allowing it to report metered load data to a network monitoring platform or building management system rather than requiring a technician to read a local display in person. This makes it a practical option for network closets and remote sites where facilities staff want to check circuit load without a site visit. Because it is metered rather than managed, it reports total input draw but does not provide remote outlet switching; environments that need to power-cycle individual devices remotely should evaluate Eaton's managed 0U PDU line instead. TAA compliance supports use in government space and other procurement contexts with domestic sourcing requirements. Integrators building out multi-cabinet rows commonly pair 0U vertical PDUs like the EMI100-10 with horizontal 2U units in adjacent equipment racks to balance outlet density against available rack space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e24 NEMA 5-15R Outlets\u003c\/strong\u003e — High outlet count supports numerous low-draw devices in a single rack without needing supplemental power strips.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e0U Vertical Form Factor\u003c\/strong\u003e — Mounts along the rack's rear or side rail, preserving all horizontal rack units for servers and network equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEthernet and RS-232 Connectivity\u003c\/strong\u003e — Reports metered load data to a network monitoring platform, reducing the need for on-site load checks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1.44 kW Maximum Output\u003c\/strong\u003e — Sized for racks with multiple lower-draw devices such as switches, access points, or AV control equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTAA Compliant\u003c\/strong\u003e — Supports procurement requirements for government space and other regulated purchasing environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUL Listed Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e — Meets commercial electrical safety standards for data center and server room installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-Year Manufacturer Warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e — Backed by Eaton's standard warranty for commercial power distribution equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edata center\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecolocation cabinet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eserver room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003enetwork closet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003egovernment space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch;\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120V, single-phase, 50-60 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Current\/Amperage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Plug\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNEMA 5-15P, 10 ft cord\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Receptacles\/Outlets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 x NEMA 5-15R\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Rating (kW\/VA)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.44 kW max\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting\/Form Factor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0U, vertical rack-mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMonitoring Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetered (Ethernet and RS-232 network monitoring)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e66.5\" H x 2.1\" W x 2.05\" D; weight 12.28 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCertifications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUL Listed, TAA Compliant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-year limited warranty (Eaton)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does 0U mounting work in a standard rack?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe EMI100-10 mounts vertically along the rear or side rail of a standard cabinet, so it does not consume any of the rack's horizontal 1U\/2U\/3U bays used for servers or network equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan this PDU be monitored remotely over the network?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
