{"product_id":"eaton-emiu04-06-metered-input-rack-pdu","title":"Eaton EMIU04-06 – 2U Metered Rack PDU","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Eaton EMIU04-06 is a 2U rack-mount metered input PDU built for data center and server room deployments where accurate power draw visibility matters. As part of Eaton's Metered Input Rack PDU platform, this unit gives integrators and facilities teams a straightforward way to monitor circuit-level load without the cost of a fully managed, outlet-switched unit. It fits standard rack-mount PDU installation workflows in colocation cabinets and network closets, and it is a practical choice for commercial-grade power distribution projects where load balancing across circuits is a priority. Because Eaton has not published a complete public datasheet for this exact catalog number at the time of writing, several line-item specifications below are marked accordingly rather than estimated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe EMIU04-06 belongs to the same G3 metered input rack PDU family as the EMIU05-10 and EMIU06-10 units, sharing the 2U horizontal rack-mount form factor, local metering display, and single-phase input design used across that product line. This class of PDU is intended for IT and AV equipment racks where administrators need to confirm actual current draw against circuit capacity before adding servers, switches, encoders, or amplifiers to a rack. Metered input rack PDU deployment in this style is common in data center power distribution projects, colocation cabinet buildouts, and network closet retrofits where a technician needs a quick, local read of load without pulling data over a network connection. The unit is designed for rack-mount installation using standard cage nuts or a tool-less bracket kit, consistent with the rest of the Eaton metered PDU catalog. Because exact amperage, outlet count, and input plug details for the EMIU04-06 SKU specifically are not published by the manufacturer in accessible documentation, Creation Networks recommends confirming these figures against your circuit design before finalizing a purchase order, or contacting our team for the current Eaton SKU sheet. This PDU is well suited to procurement standardizing on a single Eaton metered PDU platform across multiple rack elevations. Integrators managing mixed AV\/IT racks benefit from the consistent mounting hardware and display interface shared across the Eaton metered rack PDU lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2U Rack-Mount Form Factor\u003c\/strong\u003e — The horizontal 2U chassis mounts in standard four-post server racks alongside other Eaton metered PDU units for a consistent rack elevation plan.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocal Metered Display\u003c\/strong\u003e — An integrated display allows technicians to read current draw directly at the rack without a network connection or software console.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle-Phase Metered Input Design\u003c\/strong\u003e — The unit is built on Eaton's metered input platform, giving visibility into total load without the added cost of outlet-level switching.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial-Grade Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e — Built for continuous duty in data center, colocation, and network closet environments where uptime and load accuracy matter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConsistent Platform Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — Shares mounting hardware and monitoring interface conventions with other Eaton EMIU and EMI series metered PDUs for simplified fleet standardization.\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\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\u003eNot published by manufacturer for this SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Current\/Amperage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published by manufacturer for this SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Plug\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published by manufacturer for this SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Receptacles\/Outlets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published by manufacturer for this SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Rating (kW\/VA)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published by manufacturer for this SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting\/Form Factor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2U, horizontal rack-mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMonitoring Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetered input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published by manufacturer for this SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCertifications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published by manufacturer for this SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContact Eaton\/Creation Networks for warranty terms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the EMIU04-06 compatible with standard four-post server racks?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, it is designed as a 2U horizontal rack-mount unit compatible with standard EIA-310 four-post server and network racks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes this PDU support outlet-level switching or remote control?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. This is a metered input unit, meaning it reports total load at the input but does not provide individual outlet switching or remote control.
