APC AP8659NA3

Overview

The APC AP8659NA3 is a metered rack power distribution unit designed to deliver 208-volt, 20-amp power to equipment within a single rack. It provides precise outlet-level switching and monitoring, allowing administrators to control and track power usage for each connected device. This unit mounts in a 0U space along the rack side, preserving valuable rack units for servers and networking hardware while supporting a variety of devices with its combination of C13 and C19 outlets.

Key features

• Outlet-level switching enables remote rebooting and power cycling of individual devices, reducing the need for physical access to the rack.
• Real-time load monitoring accessible via a built-in web interface, SNMP, and Telnet, allowing seamless integration with APC management platforms for centralized control.
• 0U mounting design saves rack space by installing along the side, leaving all rack units free for critical equipment.
• Includes a locking three-meter input power cord to ensure a secure connection in dense rack environments.
• Supports an optional environmental sensor for temperature or humidity monitoring, providing a unified dashboard to track both power and environmental conditions.
• Robust steel chassis construction designed for long-term reliability in demanding data center and colocation environments.
• Facilitates power sequencing to limit inrush current and scheduled shutdowns to streamline maintenance without onsite intervention.

Connectivity and compatibility

This PDU supports a wide range of rack-mounted equipment through its 21 C13 outlets, suitable for most standard servers and networking devices, and 3 C19 outlets designed for higher power devices like blade chassis or high-capacity switches. The locking input cord ensures stable power delivery even in tightly packed racks. Its management interfaces allow integration with existing APC infrastructure and network management tools, making it compatible with enterprise data center environments.

Ideal uses and environments

The AP8659NA3 is well suited for enterprise data centers, colocation facilities, edge computing closets, and test labs where reliable and remotely manageable power distribution is critical. Its ability to monitor and control power at the outlet level helps prevent overloads and speeds up troubleshooting, making it a strong choice for IT teams managing dense racks with diverse equipment. The optional environmental sensor support adds value in environments where temperature and humidity monitoring is essential to protect sensitive hardware.

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.
