Eaton PDUMH20ATS – 1.92kW ATS/Metered PDU, 1U

Product Overview

The Eaton PDUMH20ATS is a 1.92kW 120V single-phase ATS/local metered PDU combining automatic transfer switching with built-in current metering for network IT racks. This 1U rack-mount PDU features 16 NEMA 5-15/20R outlets, dual L5-20P/5-20P inputs, and 12-foot cords, giving small computer rooms and equipment racks both dual-source resiliency and real-time local load visibility in a single unit. TAA compliance makes it eligible for federal and GSA Schedule procurement.

Product Description

Racks that need to stay powered through a source failure, while also keeping an eye on total load, benefit from combining automatic transfer switching with local metering in one device — which is exactly what the PDUMH20ATS provides. Its built-in digital current metering reports the total load level for all connected equipment in real time, helping technicians confirm loads remain well below maximum capacity as equipment is added, which supports lower total cost of ownership by avoiding both nuisance overloads and premature capacity upgrades. The PDU features 16 NEMA 5-15/20R 120V outlets for connecting IT equipment, and its automatic transfer switching (ATS) capability switches to a secondary power source within 2-7 milliseconds if the primary source fails or becomes unstable, so connected equipment continues operating without interruption. An on-board ATS processor constantly evaluates power quality on both inputs and will not switch to the secondary source if it is unavailable or of lower quality than the primary. Dual 12-foot (3.7-meter) power cords with NEMA L5-20P inputs — two 5-20P adapters are included — connect to separate primary and secondary mains circuits, backup generators, UPS systems, or utility power grids, including out-of-phase sources. The all-metal housing mounts into 1U of rack space in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack using included mounting hardware, or the mounting brackets can secure the unit to a wall or under a counter. TAA compliance makes the PDUMH20ATS eligible for GSA Schedule and other federal procurement contracts, an important consideration for integrators serving government IT environments.

Key Features

• Automatic Transfer Switching (ATS) — Switches to a secondary power source within 2-7 milliseconds if the primary fails or becomes unstable.
• Digital Load Metering — Reports total load for all connected equipment in real time to help prevent overloads.
• 16 NEMA 5-15/20R Outlets — Provides ample outlet count for network IT and small computer room equipment.
• Dual L5-20P Inputs with Adapters — Connect to separate primary and secondary power sources, including out-of-phase circuits.
• 1U Rack-Mount or Wall Installation — Fits in 1U of rack space or mounts to a wall or under a counter.
• TAA Compliant — Eligible for GSA Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.

Typical Applications

• Network IT racks requiring dual-source failover with load visibility
• Small computer rooms needing both ATS resiliency and metering
• Government and federal data center deployments requiring TAA compliance
• Equipment racks connected to both utility power and a backup UPS or generator

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this PDU provide both metering and transfer switching?

Yes, the PDUMH20ATS combines automatic transfer switching (ATS) between two power sources with local digital metering of total connected load.

How fast does the transfer switch operate?

The ATS function switches to the secondary source within 2-7 milliseconds if the primary source fails or becomes unstable.

How much rack space does this PDU require?

It mounts in 1U of space in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack, or can be wall- or under-counter mounted using the included brackets.

Is this PDU eligible for federal procurement?

Yes, it is TAA compliant, making it eligible for GSA Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.

What input connections does this PDU require?

It requires two separate 12-foot power cords with NEMA L5-20P plugs, each connecting to a distinct power source; 5-20P adapters are included.

What does the digital load meter display?

It displays the total connected load in amps, helping technicians monitor usage and avoid overloading the circuit.

What warranty applies to this PDU?

Eaton backs this unit with its standard manufacturer warranty; contact Creation Networks for the current term and any extended coverage options.
