Eaton PDU1230 – 208V 30A Rack PDU, 20 Outlets, 1U

Product Overview

The Eaton PDU1230 is a 208/240V rack PDU with 30A capacity and 20 total output receptacles, delivered in a 1U horizontal rack-mount form factor with a 19-inch mounting profile. Built with an L6-30P input plug and a 15-foot cord, it is designed for network closets, server rooms, and small data center deployments that need a straightforward, unmonitored power distribution unit. Detachable mounting flanges give integrators flexibility to install it as a wallmount, under-counter, or 1U/0U rack-mount unit depending on the space available.

Product Description

The PDU1230 offers 208/240V power distribution through an L6-30P input plug and a 15-foot power cord, providing enough reach to connect to a range of PDU or utility power sources within a rack row. It supplies 20 total output receptacles across two connector types: four front-panel C19 outlets, each protected by its own 15A circuit breaker, along with four front-panel C13 outlets and 12 rear-panel C13 outlets protected in banks of four by four separate 10A circuit breakers. This layout gives integrators the flexibility to power both high-current C19 devices and standard C13 equipment from a single rack PDU, while the individually breakered outlet banks help isolate faults and prevent a single overloaded circuit from taking down the entire unit. The detachable mounting flanges are a practical feature for facilities managers who need installation flexibility, supporting wallmount, under-counter, or 1U/0U rack-mount configurations depending on the equipment room layout. This makes the PDU1230 a versatile choice for network closets, small server rooms, and data center racks where a reliable, no-frills basic PDU is needed rather than a monitored or switched unit. Its 20-outlet capacity and dual connector types make it well suited for racks with a mix of legacy C13 equipment and higher-draw C19 devices.

Key Features

• 208/240V, 30A Capacity — supports high-current rack loads through an L6-30P input plug rated for 30A service.
• 20 Total Output Receptacles — combines C19 and C13 outlets to power both high-draw and standard rack equipment.
• Individually Breakered Outlet Banks — separate 15A and 10A circuit breakers isolate faults so one overloaded circuit doesn't take down the whole PDU.
• 15-Foot Input Cord — provides ample reach to connect to a utility power source or upstream PDU within a rack row.
• Detachable Mounting Flanges — configurable for wallmount, under-counter, or 1U/0U rack-mount installation depending on the space.
