Eaton EVMA2130X – 0U 3-Phase Managed Rack PDU, 42 Outlets

Product Overview

The Eaton EVMA2130X is a 3-phase managed rack PDU designed for data center and server room racks that require remote power monitoring alongside high outlet density. Rated for 120/208V at 24A, this 0U vertical PDU distributes up to 8.6kW across 42 outlets, making it suited to mixed server and network equipment racks. Facilities and IT teams choosing a managed rack PDU for colocation or enterprise data center deployments will find the L21-30P input and vertical 0U mounting practical for high-density cabinets. This model is part of Eaton's ePDU G4 managed platform, a common choice for commercial AV/IT integrators standardizing on network-monitored power distribution.

Product Description

The EVMA2130X (refer to the product photo for the vertical outlet strip layout) is a 3-phase managed rack PDU from Eaton's ePDU G4 line. It accepts 120/208V 3-phase input through an L21-30P plug rated at 24A, delivering up to 8.6kW of usable power. The unit provides 42 outlets in a mixed configuration of 24 C13 and 18 C39 receptacles, giving flexibility for servers, switches, and higher-draw equipment that use C20-style cords. As a 0U vertical PDU, it mounts in the rear channel of a standard rack cabinet without consuming any horizontal rack space, which matters in racks already packed with 1U and 2U servers. This model supports network monitoring through an optional Gigabit Network Module (GNM), which enables remote visibility into PDU-level power draw and supports firmware updates over the network; note that outlet-level switching/control is not a feature of this particular model — it is metered/managed at the PDU level rather than individually switched per outlet. The 10 ft. input cord provides flexibility for routing to overhead or under-floor power whips in a data center environment. This PDU is a good fit for organizations standardizing rack power infrastructure across multiple cabinets where consistent monitoring and reporting are priorities.

Key Features
