Eaton PDUMV30 – 120V 30A Metered Vertical 0U PDU

Product Overview

The Eaton PDUMV30 is a 120V metered vertical 0U rack PDU built to give IT managers continuous visibility into network power consumption without occupying horizontal rack space. Supporting 30A maximum capacity (agency de-rated to 24A) across 24 NEMA 5-15/20R outlets, this vertical PDU distributes UPS or generator power to multiple servers in data centers, server rooms, and network closets while its built-in two-character LED displays report current draw in one-amp increments.

Product Description

Vertical 0U PDUs are a common choice in dense server racks because they free up horizontal rack units for compute and storage, and the PDUMV30 is built specifically for that role. The unit measures 63.75 inches and mounts vertically using included brackets compatible with standard 2 and 4 post racks, as well as under-counter or wallmount configurations. Its 24 5-15/20R outlets are arranged into two separately metered and breakered 20A load banks, each with 12 outlets, and each bank includes its own two-character LED display for continuous, easy-to-read current monitoring in one-amp increments. This lets IT staff track load on each bank independently and rebalance connected equipment before a breaker trips. A 10-ft. attached line cord with L5-30P input plug connects to facility power, a generator, or a UPS, and the switch-free, unfiltered pass-through design reliably distributes that power to servers and networking equipment without introducing a switching point of failure. Toolless button-mount installation simplifies setup in compatible racks, and plug retention brackets keep connected equipment securely plugged in even in high-traffic cabinets. This metered PDU is well suited for complex, redundant power applications in data centers, server rooms, and network closets where phase and load balance need ongoing monitoring.
