APC Easy Rack PDU Switched 1U 16A 230V

The APC Easy Rack PDU Switched 1U (EPDU1116SM) is a horizontally mounted, 1U rackmount power distribution unit designed to deliver individual outlet-level switching control across a dense rack environment. Built around a single-phase 16A input at 230V, it provides metered total input current visibility and per-outlet on/off switching via a local management interface and remote network control, enabling administrators to power-cycle hung devices, sequence startup loads, and enforce outlet-level access policies without physical intervention at the rack. The unit ships with an IEC 60309 2P+E 16A input connector and distributes power across multiple IEC C13 outlets, making it directly compatible with the standard IEC power cords used by servers, networking equipment, and storage appliances throughout European and international enterprise deployments.

The EPDU1116SM targets small-to-medium business server rooms, branch office racks, retail edge deployments, and colocation environments where individual circuit budgets make full enterprise-tier PDUs difficult to justify yet outlet-level remote switching remains operationally essential. The integrated network management card interface supports SNMP, Telnet, SSH, and HTTP/HTTPS access, allowing the unit to be incorporated into existing network management frameworks and monitored alongside other APC Smart-UPS and Symmetra infrastructure using APC EcoStruxure IT or third-party SNMP managers. Firmware is field-upgradeable over the network, protecting the operational lifespan of deployed units as management protocol requirements evolve.

The 1U horizontal form factor is engineered for standard 19-inch EIA-310 compliant racks and uses a zero-U side-mounting option on compatible APC racks, preserving front-facing rack unit space for active equipment where footprint is at a premium. The unit's steel enclosure and UL/CE-certified design meet the regulatory requirements for both commercial IT room and light industrial edge deployments. Outlet-level switching without metering at the individual outlet level keeps the bill of materials lean while still delivering the remote reboot and load management capabilities that reduce truck-roll frequency and support lights-out facility operations.

Ideal for

• Remote power-cycling of locked-up servers or networking appliances in unmanned branch office or edge racks, eliminating the need for on-site intervention
• Startup load sequencing in small server rooms to prevent inrush current spikes from simultaneously energizing multiple devices after a facility power event
• Outlet-level access enforcement in shared colocation or multi-tenant rack environments, ensuring tenants can only control their allocated outlets via role-based credentials
• Integration into SNMP-based NOC monitoring platforms to provide real-time total rack current draw visibility and threshold-based alerting for capacity planning
• Retail and hospitality edge rack deployments where a single 1U PDU must support POS servers, switches, and access point controllers with remote reboot capability from a central IT team
• SMB server room consolidation projects replacing unmanaged power strips with a network-managed PDU to establish baseline remote infrastructure management without full data-center-grade expenditure
