APC by Schneider Electric Metered Rack PDU AP7801B

The APC by Schneider Electric Metered Rack PDU AP7801B is a compact 1U metered power distribution unit engineered for high-density deployments in standard 19-inch equipment racks. It provides real-time monitoring and metering capabilities at the individual branch circuit level, enabling granular power consumption visibility and load management across rack infrastructure. The unit combines intelligent metering, remote outlet control, and environmental monitoring in a space-efficient form factor, making it ideal for data center operators requiring detailed power analytics without sacrificing rack real estate.

The AP7801B delivers 16 individually switchable outlets with per-branch circuit metering, allowing operators to monitor power draw by logical circuit groupings rather than individual outlets. This architecture reduces operational complexity and administrative overhead while maintaining visibility into power distribution patterns. The metered approach provides sufficient granularity for capacity planning, load balancing, and identifying power anomalies across rack-mounted equipment.

Widely adopted by telecom facilities, university data centers, and colocation providers, the AP7801B addresses the cost-effectiveness requirement for metered power distribution at scale. Its intelligent monitoring integrates with standard infrastructure management platforms, enabling centralized visibility across multiple racks and sites. Network connectivity via Ethernet supports SNMP-based monitoring and remote management, allowing operators to implement sophisticated power policies and alerts.

Ideal for

• Telecom central offices requiring per-circuit power metering and remote outlet control across multiple equipment racks
• University and research data centers monitoring departmental power consumption by circuit for chargeback and capacity planning
• Colocation facilities providing metered power visibility to tenants as a value-added service
• Enterprise data centers implementing power-aware asset management and load distribution across multiple racks
• High-density server deployments requiring circuit-level monitoring without per-outlet metering complexity
• Multi-tenant facilities needing granular power consumption data for billing and SLA compliance reporting
