Wiremold 6-Outlets PDU

The Wiremold 6-Outlets PDU is a purpose-built power distribution solution designed for professional IT environments, data centers, and workstation setups where reliable power delivery and protection matter most. With six rear NEMA 5-20R outlets, a 120V operating voltage, and a 15-foot cord, this rack-mountable power distribution unit provides a clean, organized, and secure way to power multiple devices from a single, centralized power source. Built to meet rigorous standards, it combines practical features like an on/off switch, computer-grade surge protection, and government-friendly TAA compliance, making it an ideal choice for equipment racks, server rooms, and high-density workstations that demand dependable and scalable power distribution.

• Six 20A NEMA 5-20R outlets (rear) for high-capacity power distribution: This PDU is equipped with six rear-facing NEMA 5-20R outlets that deliver reliable 120V power to servers, switches, storage devices, and other critical equipment. The 20-amp rating ensures robust, supported performance for common data-center and office devices, helping you consolidate outlets while maintaining safe, consistent power delivery. The rear outlet configuration keeps cabling tidy and minimizes clutter in dense rack environments, contributing to improved airflow and easier cable management.
• On/off switch for immediate power control and energy management: The integrated on/off switch gives you quick, terminal-level control over the entire power distribution unit. This feature is particularly useful during maintenance, troubleshooting, or when you need to power off a group of devices without unplugging individual cables. The clear, accessible switch reduces wear on receptacles while enabling server room operators to manage power in a straightforward, drop-in manner.
• 15-foot (4.6 m) power cord offers flexible placement within standard racks: A long, durable cord provides substantial routing flexibility, allowing you to position the PDU where it best aligns with your rack layout and power source. The distance between the main power input and the equipment inside the cabinet is critical for clean cable management, minimized tension on outlets, and improved accessibility for outlets and devices at the back of the rack. This length supports layouts in mid- to large-scale racks without sacrificing performance or reliability.
• Perma Power computer-grade surge protection for critical equipment: Designed to shield sensitive devices from power disturbances, this PDU includes Perma Power surge protection. Protecting servers, network gear, and storage devices from voltage spikes, surges, and transient events helps reduce the risk of data loss, hardware damage, and downtime. The surge protection is fabricated to meet the demands of professional computing environments, delivering dependable protection that complements the overall reliability of your rack infrastructure.
• Rack-mountable, TAA-compliant design built for professional procurement: The PDU is constructed with a standard 19-inch width to fit most server racks and cabinets. Its rack-mountable form factor simplifies integration into existing IT infrastructure, enabling clean installation with suitable mounting hardware. Being TAA compliant makes this unit suitable for government and enterprise purchases, aligning with procurement requirements while delivering consistent performance in mission-critical environments.

How to install Wiremold 6-Outlets PDU

• Prepare the rack: Ensure the rack or cabinet is clean, level, and capable of supporting the PDU’s weight and mounting hardware. Verify there is adequate space behind the rack for cable routing and heat dissipation.
• Mount the PDU: Use the included mounting hardware to secure the PDU to the rack rails at an appropriate height that allows easy access to the rear outlets. Align the unit with the rack’s standard 19" width and tighten hardware securely to prevent movement during operation.
• Route and secure the power cord: Feed the 15-foot cord toward the main power source or power strip feeding the rack, avoiding sharp bends or pinches in the cord. Use cable ties or management channels to keep the cord neatly organized and out of the way of airflow and other equipment.
• Power on and verify: With the PDU mounted and plugged into a dedicated power source, switch the unit to the ON position. Verify that connected devices receive power through the rear outlets and that startup sequences proceed without interruption. Confirm that the surge protection features engage as part of routine power restoration.
• Organize devices and monitor load: Connect servers, switches, storage, and other equipment to the six rear outlets. Distribute load evenly across outlets where possible to minimize peak draw on any single circuit. Periodically review power consumption to ensure total draw remains within safe limits for your circuit and environment.
