retain any additional cordage within the rack frame with hook-and-loop fastener ties in the cable
management space until 2.8 (6 ft) or less exits the rack.
The PDU has twelve customer-usable IEC 320-C13 outlets that are rated at 200 - 240 V ac. There are six
groups of two outlets that are fed by six circuit breakers. Each outlet is rated up to 10 A (220 - 240 V ac)
or 12 A (200 - 208 V ac), but each group of two outlets is fed from one 20 A circuit breaker derated to 16
A.

Typical rack and PDU configurations
See 0551, 0553, 7014, and 0555 rack configurations for typical configurations and PDUs when the rack is
populated with various server models.
Power distribution unit plus specifications
The power distribution unit plus (PDU+) has power-monitoring capabilities. The PDU+ is an intelligent
AC power distribution unit (PDU+) that monitors the amount of power that is being used by the devices
that are plugged into it. The PDU+ provides twelve C13 power outlets and receives power through a
Souriau UTG connector. It can be used in many geographies and for many applications by varying the
PDU-to-wall power cord, which must be ordered separately. Each PDU+ requires one PDU-to-wall power
cord. When the PDU+ is connected to a dedicated power source, it conforms to UL60950, CSA
C22.2-60950, EN-60950, and IEC-60950 standards.
