APC Schneider Electric Vertical Rack-Mount PDU (Power Distribution Unit) - Metered Rack, 20-Outlet, 100V-240V/30A, 42U 0U Form Factor. P/N: AP8858NA3.

This is an APC Schneider Electric Vertical Rack-Mount PDU (Power Distribution Unit), model AP8858NA3 (P/N: HU04082-12011A, AP8858NA3). This Metered Rack PDU is engineered to provide advanced power distribution and monitoring capabilities within your data center or server room. Designed with a 42U 0U form factor, it mounts vertically to the side of a standard 42U server rack, consuming no valuable rack unit (U) space typically reserved for servers and other active equipment. It features 20 C13 outlets, delivering reliable power from a single 100V-240V, 30A input (input plug type would typically be L5-30P or L6-30P, depending on region). The "Metered" functionality allows for real-time local and remote monitoring of connected loads, providing essential data on current consumption. This enables data center managers to make informed decisions about load balancing, capacity planning, and preventing circuit overloads, thereby improving uptime and energy efficiency. It's an indispensable tool for robust power management in high-density IT environments.
