APC 0U 120/208V 20A 24-Outlet Switched Rack Power Distribution Unit

The APC AP8962 is a switched rack power distribution unit that delivers intelligent, space-saving power management for busy IT racks. It provides twenty four NEMA 5-20R outlets that you can switch on or off one at a time or in custom groups, giving you precise control over every connected device without leaving your desk. Its 0U form factor lets the unit mount along the side of a cabinet, so all horizontal rack space remains available for servers, storage, and networking hardware.

A single NEMA L21-20P input plug feeds the unit with 120- and 208-volt power, supporting a combined load of up to 5.76 kVA at 20 amperes. This mixed-voltage flexibility is useful in environments where low-voltage peripherals share a rack with higher-voltage core systems.

Built-in network connectivity lets administrators monitor and control the PDU through a standard web browser, SNMP, or Telnet. You can check real-time current draw, set user-defined overload alarms, and reboot locked-up equipment remotely. These capabilities help data center teams reduce onsite visits, automate startup sequencing, and avoid unplanned outages.

For technicians working in the aisle, an integrated LCD shows live amperage and voltage data, along with any active alarm conditions. The display makes it easy to verify capacity before adding gear and to troubleshoot power issues on the spot.

Installation is straightforward. Tool-less brackets clip into the rack’s vertical rails, and once mounted, the AP8962 integrates smoothly with APC’s Centralized Management suite for rack-to-row oversight. UL, cUL, and FCC certifications help meet common safety and compliance requirements found in enterprise data centers, colocation facilities, and lab environments.
