Eaton PDUMV40 – Metered Dual-Circuit 32-Outlet Vertical PDU

Product Overview

The Eaton PDUMV40 is a 120V metered rack PDU built for server rooms and network closets that need dual-circuit power distribution in a compact 0U footprint. It separates load across two independent 20A circuits, each with its own current display, giving IT staff a clear view of consumption without adding rack space. This dual-circuit PDU is a practical fit for cabinets running dual-corded servers or mixed equipment loads that need extra outlet count without splitting into two full rack units.

Product Description

The PDUMV40 metered PDU distributes 120V power across 32 total NEMA 5-15/20R outlets, split into two independent 16-outlet circuits rated for up to 2,400 watts each, for a combined capacity of 4,800 watts. Each circuit has its own dual input current monitoring display, so technicians can check amperage per circuit at a glance and rebalance loads before a breaker trips. The switchless design removes the risk of an accidental shutoff during maintenance, which matters in shared network closets where multiple people access the same rack. Unfiltered electrical pass-through makes this vertical PDU well suited to distributing alternate-waveform power from a UPS or generator, since it does not attempt to condition or filter the incoming waveform. The 0U vertical mounting profile keeps all 32 outlets available without consuming any horizontal rack space, which is valuable in dense server rack builds where every U counts. It is a good fit for cabinets housing multiple servers with dual redundant power supplies, or any rack that simply needs a high outlet count in a small footprint.

Key Features

• Dual Independent Circuits — Two separate 20A, 2,400-watt circuits let you isolate loads and keep monitoring granular across a single rack.
• Per-Circuit Current Display — Built-in monitoring shows AC power consumption for each circuit independently, helping prevent overloads before they happen.
• 32 Total Outlets — 5-15/20R outlets across both circuits support a high density of connected devices in a single PDU.
• Switchless Design — Eliminates the risk of an accidental power-off event for connected equipment during routine rack work.
• 0U Vertical Form Factor — Mounts without consuming usable rack space, preserving U-height for servers and network gear.
• Unfiltered Pass-Through Power — Compatible with alternate-waveform UPS and generator output for flexible backup power scenarios.

Typical Applications

• Data center server cabinets running dual-corded equipment
• Server room racks with mixed high-density loads
• Network closets requiring high outlet counts in minimal space
• Colocation facility cabinets billed by rack unit

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the PDUMV40 compatible with standard 19-inch racks?

Yes, it is designed for 0U vertical mounting in EIA-standard 19-inch rack enclosures, keeping all horizontal rack space free for equipment.

Can I monitor each circuit separately?

Yes, each of the two independent circuits has its own current monitoring display, so you can track load on each circuit without an external meter.

Does this PDU work with UPS or generator backup power?

Yes, the unfiltered electrical pass-through design is compatible with alternate-waveform output from a UPS or generator, making it suitable for backup power distribution.

How does this integrate into a broader data center power design?

The dual-circuit layout lets integrators split loads for redundancy planning or simply add outlet capacity to an existing 0U rack power scheme without additional U-space.

What is the outlet type?

The PDUMV40 uses NEMA 5-15/20R outlets, accepting standard 5-15P and 5-20P plugs common in North American IT equipment.

What warranty does Eaton provide on this PDU?

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

Can Creation Networks help me confirm this PDU fits my rack power plan?

Yes, our team can help verify circuit sizing, outlet count and mounting fit before you order.
