Power Distribution Unit PDU Digitus DN-DP-H-1-8C13 1U Black 16A

The Digitus Power Distribution Unit PDU DN-DP-H-1-8C13 1U in black is a rack-mountable switched PDU designed for organized power delivery in confined rack spaces. It accepts a nominal input voltage of 230 V via a C20 coupler and provides distribution for connected equipment while supporting a maximum current of 16 A. With a compact 1U form factor and dimensions of 436 mm width, 150 mm depth and 44.4 mm height, the unit is suitable for use in server cabinets, network racks and small data center deployments where space efficiency and reliable power management are required.

Advantages

The switched PDU design allows centralized power control and monitored distribution to connected devices, reducing the need for multiple extension cables and improving cable organization in the rack. Its C20 coupler and 16 A capacity match common European power infrastructures, while the 1U height and narrow depth keep the unit compatible with standard rack mounting without occupying significant space. The black finish provides a neutral appearance that integrates with typical rack equipment.

Suitable for

• Power distribution in server racks and network cabinets
• Small and medium data centers with space constraints
• Telecom and networking equipment power management
• Edge computing racks and laboratory test benches

How to use

Mount the PDU in a standard 19-inch rack taking up one rack unit (1U) of height. Connect the incoming mains feed to the C20 coupler following site electrical safety rules and ensuring the circuit can supply up to 16 A. Route and connect equipment power cords to the PDU outlets according to equipment power requirements and load balancing recommendations. Observe local electrical codes and, if necessary, have installation performed or verified by qualified personnel.

Recommendations

Do not exceed the rated maximum current of 16 A. Plan device connections to avoid overloading individual circuits and allow for future expansion. Use appropriate locking or strain-relief measures for power cords in environments with frequent maintenance, and schedule periodic visual inspections for secure connections and signs of wear.
