Panduit P16B41M Basic Pdu 30 Amp 16-outlet 5-20R

Product Description

The PANDUIT P16B41M is a basic power distribution unit (PDU) designed to distribute AC power to multiple devices within a rack or enclosure. Rated at 30 amps, it provides sixteen 5-20R receptacle outlets, making it well suited for high-density equipment deployments where consistent, organized power delivery is required. The P16B41M is a passive, non-metered PDU intended for installation by licensed electricians or qualified data center and IT infrastructure technicians working in rack-mounted environments.

This PDU is used in rack cabinets and server enclosures in commercial, industrial, and data center applications. The sixteen 5-20R outlets accommodate standard 5-20P plugs commonly found on servers, network switches, patch panels, KVM devices, and other rack-mounted equipment. It is appropriate for installations requiring a single 30-amp feed to supply multiple lower-draw devices simultaneously.

Key Features

• 30-amp input rating for high-capacity rack power distribution
• Sixteen 5-20R receptacle outlets in a single unit
• Passive basic PDU design with no metering or switching components to fail
• Rack-mount form factor for organized cable and power management
• Sold individually as a single unit (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style rack-mount PDU compatible with standard 19-inch equipment enclosures accepting 5-20P plug connections on a 30-amp circuit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician familiar with NEC requirements for branch circuit sizing and receptacle ratings. Ensure the upstream circuit breaker is turned off before connecting or disconnecting the PDU. Verify that the total connected load does not exceed 80 percent of the 30-amp rated input to comply with continuous-load NEC guidelines. Do not exceed the amperage rating of individual 5-20R outlets or the aggregate input rating of the unit.
