Eaton EMIU06-10 – 208V 2U Metered Rack PDU

Product Overview

The Eaton EMIU06-10 is a 200-240V, 2U rack-mount metered input PDU built for data center and colocation cabinet power distribution running higher-voltage IT equipment. This metered rack PDU deployment option gives integrators and facilities managers real-time visibility into circuit load in server rooms and network closets standardized on 208-240V branch circuits. With a mix of C13 and C19 outlets rated to 5.76 kW, it is designed for commercial-grade racks carrying servers, blade chassis, and networking equipment with higher power draw than typical 120V loads.

Product Description

The EMIU06-10 delivers a 24A, single-phase, 200-240V input through an L6-30P twist-lock plug and distributes power across 12 IEC C13 and 4 IEC C19 outlets, for 16 total receptacles rated to a 5.76 kW maximum. This outlet mix accommodates both standard server power cords (C13) and higher-draw equipment such as blade servers, storage arrays, or network switches that require C19 connections. As a metered rather than switched unit, the EMIU06-10 reports aggregate input load at the PDU itself, letting technicians confirm available circuit headroom before adding equipment to a data center or colocation cabinet rack without the added cost of individual outlet control. The 2U horizontal form factor mounts in standard four-post server racks and measures approximately 19 inches wide, 3.4 inches tall, and 5 inches deep, preserving vertical rack space for compute and network hardware. This voltage class is common in colocation environments where tenants are billed by circuit capacity and need to track their own draw independent of the facility's monitoring systems, as well as in server rooms running higher-density equipment on 208-240V circuits. The L6-30P input plug and 10 ft cord are intended for a dedicated 30A branch circuit, consistent with commercial data center electrical design practices. Facilities standardizing on Eaton's metered PDU platform across a data center often deploy the EMIU06-10 in 208-240V racks alongside the 100-127V EMIU05-10 in racks running standard 120V gear, keeping a single vendor platform and monitoring interface throughout the rack fleet.

Key Features

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What circuit does the EMIU06-10 require?

It requires a dedicated 200-240V, 30A single-phase branch circuit terminated with a receptacle matching its NEMA L6-30P plug.

Does the outlet mix support both standard and high-draw equipment?

Yes. The combination of 12 C13 and 4 C19 outlets accommodates typical servers alongside higher-draw equipment like blade chassis or storage arrays that use C19 connectors.

Is this a switched or managed PDU?

No, the EMIU06-10 is a metered input PDU. It displays total load locally but does not provide remote network monitoring or individual outlet switching. For those capabilities, consider Eaton's managed or switched PDU lines.

Can this PDU be installed in a standard server rack?

Yes. Its 2U horizontal form factor mounts in standard EIA-310 four-post server and network racks using conventional rack hardware.

Is the EMIU06-10 suitable for a colocation cabinet?

Yes, its 208-240V input and 5.76 kW capacity make it well suited to colocation cabinets and data center racks running higher-density IT equipment.

What warranty applies to this PDU?

Eaton provides a 3-year limited warranty on the EMIU06-10. Contact Creation Networks for full terms and support.

How does this model differ from the EMIU05-10?

The EMIU06-10 runs on 200-240V circuits with C13/C19 outlets, while the EMIU05-10 is the 100-127V version with NEMA 5-20R outlets, allowing consistent PDU standardization across mixed-voltage racks.
