APC APDU10151SW

Overview

The APC APDU10151SW is a switched rack power distribution unit designed to deliver precise and remotely managed power to servers, storage arrays, and networking equipment operating on 208 V single-phase power. Supporting up to 5.0 kW of load capacity, it fits into a narrow 2.2-inch vertical space, preserving valuable rack slots for critical hardware instead of bulky power strips. With forty versatile outlets compatible with C13, C19, C15, and C21 connectors, this PDU accommodates mixed equipment setups without the need for additional adapters.

Equipped with a 9.8-foot power cord terminating in a locking NEMA L6-30P plug, it ensures secure and flexible installation even in racks with distant power sources. Remote management is enabled through built-in gigabit Ethernet and a secondary network port for cascading multiple PDUs, allowing centralized control and monitoring from anywhere. The unit’s robust design supports operation in ambient temperatures up to 140 °F, making it suitable for dense data centers, edge environments, and colocation facilities.

Connectivity and compatibility

This PDU integrates seamlessly into modern IT racks with its flexible outlet compatibility, supporting a wide range of server and networking power connectors. The dual gigabit Ethernet ports facilitate network management and allow multiple units to be linked together, reducing cabling complexity and enabling centralized control. Its locking power plug ensures a stable connection to compatible 208 V power sources, making it a reliable choice for data centers and edge installations.

Performance and reliability

Designed for demanding environments, the unit maintains stable operation even at elevated temperatures up to 140 °F, which is common in dense racks or edge locations with limited cooling. The live-swappable management card minimizes maintenance downtime by allowing firmware updates or replacements without powering down connected equipment. Accurate power metering helps IT teams monitor consumption closely, plan capacity effectively, and avoid overloads that could disrupt operations.

Ideal uses and environments

This PDU is well suited to data centers, colocation facilities, and edge computing closets where space is at a premium and power demands are high. It supports mixed hardware setups with its versatile outlets and offers remote management capabilities that benefit IT teams overseeing multiple racks or sites. Whether cycling power to a frozen server, tracking tenant power usage, or ensuring reliable distribution in a crowded rack, this unit provides the control and visibility needed for modern IT infrastructure.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
