Digitus Basic IT PDU 1-phase 16A 24 x C13 3 x C19 3m cable

The Digitus Basic IT PDU is a 1-phase power distribution unit designed for installation in 19" racks. It provides 27 AC outlets — 24 × C13 and 3 × C19 — and comes with a 3 m supply cable with an IEC 60309 16 A plug. Rated for a nominal input voltage of 250 V and a maximum current of 16 A, the unit supports operation at 50–60 Hz and is built for compact vertical mounting to save rack space.

Advantages

The PDU delivers reliable power distribution for network and server cabinets, combining a space-saving vertical design with excellent socket arrangement. Each C13 and C19 outlet features integrated extraction protection to prevent unintended unplugging. With a maximum output capacity of up to 4,000 W (250 V AC / 16 A), the device is engineered for stable operation under appropriate loads.

Suitable for

• Power distribution in network racks and server cabinets
• IT equipment, switches and patch panels in 19" racks
• Lab environments and technical rooms requiring multiple IEC outlets

How to use

Mount the PDU vertically inside a 19" rack using appropriate mounting hardware. Connect the 3 m supply cable to a compatible 16 A mains outlet (IEC 60309). Plug devices into the C13 and C19 outlets as required, ensuring the total connected load does not exceed the rated 16 A/4,000 W. Verify that cables are secured and extraction protection clips engage to prevent accidental disconnection.

Recommendations

Distribute connected equipment across outlets to avoid concentrating the load on a single circuit. Regularly inspect connectors and cable routing to maintain proper ventilation and prevent overloading; consult rack power planning guidelines for detailed load balancing.
