DIGITUS PDU - 1U aluminum rackmount 8x Safety outlet 1x outlet 16A 230VAC 50/60Hz IEC C20 plug

The Digitus DN-95440 PDU is a 1U power distribution unit designed for 19" racks, offering nine AC outlets in a compact horizontal or vertical mount configuration. Housed in a combination of ABS and aluminum with a two-metre supply cable, the unit supports a nominal input voltage of 230 V and a maximum current of 16 A, making it suitable for reliable power delivery in server cabinets, network racks and laboratory environments. Sockets are rotated by 45° to improve space management and allow easier access to plugs, and the unit is finished in silver and black to match typical rack equipment.

Advantages

The PDU provides organised and professional power distribution for IT and network installations while occupying only 1U of rack space. Its robust ABS and aluminium housing ensures mechanical stability and heat resistance in rack environments. The rotated sockets enable denser connector usage and reduce cable overlap, and the 2 m cable simplifies connection to a nearby power source or UPS. With a 16 A rating at 230 V the device supports common server and networking loads without requiring special modification.

Suitable for

• Powering servers and rack-mounted network devices in 19" cabinets
• Distributing power in telecom or network closets
• Use with UPS systems and laboratory equipment requiring multiple AC outlets
• Horizontal or vertical mounting in data centres and small server rooms

• Weight: 0.75 kg

How to use

Install the Digitus DN-95440 into a 19" rack using standard 1U mounting procedures, choosing horizontal or vertical orientation based on available space and cable routing. Route the 2 m power cable to the mains distribution or UPS and connect to a suitable 230 V supply capable of delivering up to 16 A. Plug equipment into the rotated AC outlets, taking advantage of the angled orientation to reduce cable crowding. Ensure the total current draw of connected devices does not exceed the unit's 16 A rating.

Recommendations

Position the PDU close to the load or UPS to minimise cable lengths, avoid overloading by calculating total power consumption of connected devices, and allow adequate ventilation around the unit. For installations with high availability requirements, use the IEC-60320 C20 input of a compatible UPS or upstream distribution unit where applicable.
