Eaton G4 Metered Input Rack PDU 11kW 230V 24-Outlet

The Eaton G4 Metered Input Rack PDU (EME263) delivers 11kW of managed power distribution across 24 IEC C13 outlets at 230V, designed for enterprise server racks where visibility into aggregate power consumption is operationally essential. The unit features a metered input that continuously measures real-time current draw at the PDU level, presenting this data locally via an LED digital ammeter display. This architecture enables data centre and IT operations teams to right-size rack loading, avoid circuit oversubscription, and maintain safe headroom without deploying additional metering infrastructure.

Built around a robust steel chassis in a 1U zero-U vertical form factor, the EME263 integrates directly into standard 19-inch rack enclosures and draws from a single-phase IEC 309 input connector. The 24-outlet configuration supports high-density server, storage, and networking deployments, distributing load evenly across the outlet bank. As a fourth-generation Eaton G4 PDU, the unit benefits from refined engineering for reliability in continuously energised environments where unplanned downtime carries significant operational consequence.

The EME263 is widely specified in enterprise data centres, colocation facilities, and server rooms where budget-conscious power monitoring is required without the overhead of full outlet-level switched or metered intelligence. It occupies the practical middle ground between basic strip PDUs and fully managed intelligent units, making it a preferred baseline specification for racks housing business-critical workloads where per-rack power accountability—for capacity planning, energy reporting, or PUE tracking—is required by IT governance policy.

Ideal for

• Enterprise data centre rack power monitoring to track per-rack kW loading and enforce circuit utilisation policies without deploying outlet-level metering
• Colocation customer deployments where cage or rack-level power reporting is contractually required and a cost-effective metered-input unit satisfies the measurement obligation
• High-density server and blade chassis racks requiring 24 IEC C13 outlets from a single 1U or zero-U device while maintaining aggregate current visibility via local LED display
• IT capacity planning programmes that need real-time current draw data at the rack level to model infrastructure growth and prevent over-provisioning of downstream electrical circuits
• Server room standardisation projects specifying a consistent baseline PDU across all populated racks to enable uniform power auditing and energy efficiency reporting
• Virtualisation and hyper-converged infrastructure racks where consolidated compute density demands reliable 11kW distribution headroom and continuous load monitoring during peak workload cycles
