Tripp Lite PDUMH20 Rackmount Pdu 20A 12-outlet 1U

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE PDUMH20 is a 1U rackmount power distribution unit (PDU) rated at 20 amps that provides 12 NEMA 5-15/20R outlets for distributing AC power to equipment mounted in a standard server rack or equipment cabinet. Built for data centers, server rooms, telecom closets, and other high-density installations, this PDU accepts a NEMA L5-20P or NEMA 5-20P input and distributes 120V power across its outlet bank. The 1U form factor keeps rack space consumption minimal while supporting a full complement of powered devices. IT technicians and network installers are the primary trades for this unit.

The PDUMH20 is suited for rack-mounted environments where multiple servers, switches, patch panels, or AV components require reliable AC power distribution from a single 20A branch circuit. Its NEMA 5-15/20R outlets accept both standard 15A and 20A plugs, offering flexibility across mixed equipment loads. Typical deployments include enterprise server racks, network equipment cabinets, and broadcast or AV racks in commercial and light industrial settings.

Key Features

• 12 NEMA 5-15/20R outlets accept both 15A and 20A plugs
• 20A total load capacity on a single branch circuit
• 1U rackmount profile conserves vertical rack space
• 120V AC input for standard North American branch circuits
• Designed for high-density rack deployments in server and network environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style rackmount PDU for use in standard 19-inch equipment racks and cabinets requiring 20A, 120V power distribution across multiple devices.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by IT technicians or licensed electricians familiar with rack power systems and NEC branch-circuit requirements. De-energize the branch circuit at the panel before connecting the PDU input cord. Verify that the upstream breaker is rated at 20A and that total connected load does not exceed 80 percent of the PDU rating (16A continuous) per NEC guidelines. Do not exceed the rated amperage across the outlet bank.
