Mounted vertically in a rack cabinet to preserve valuable rack unit space, it provides individually switched outlet control, allowing technicians to remotely cycle power to connected equipment without physical access to the rack. This unit is suited for IT infrastructure professionals managing dense rack environments where remote power control and uptime are critical priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AP8958 is used in enterprise data center environments, network closets, and server rooms where zero-U mounting is preferred to keep standard rack units available for active equipment. It is well suited for installations requiring per-outlet switching capability, such as remote power cycling of servers, networking gear, and storage devices managed by data center or IT operations teams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSecond-generation switched PDU with individual outlet-level power switching\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZero-U form factor mounts vertically in the rack, preserving rack unit space\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRemote outlet control enables power cycling without physical rack access\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnterprise-class design suited for high-availability data center deployments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single unit (each)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style rack PDU replacement or addition for standard EIA-310 compliant rack enclosures in enterprise and data center environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a qualified IT infrastructure technician or licensed electrician. Power down or de-energize the circuit before connecting or disconnecting the PDU from the facility power source. Verify that the branch circuit amperage and voltage ratings match the PDU input requirements before energizing.
