Eaton PDUMH20HVAT - 1U ATS/Metered Rack PDU 208/240 V 16 A
Overview
The Eaton PDUMH20HVAT is a rack-mount power distribution unit (PDU) with integrated automatic transfer switch (ATS) logic and load metering, engineered for distributed AC power delivery with dual source redundancy in 208-240 V single-phase rack environments. Power infrastructure teams, data center engineers, and IT operations deploy it where continuous AC output is critical × for example, in racks fed from two separate UPS or utility circuits to minimize single-point feed failures.
This unit accepts two IEC C20 inputs via included 12 ft (≈3.66 m) power cables, allowing parallel connection to primary and secondary power sources. It maintains output continuity by automatically transferring load to the secondary source within milliseconds if the primary feed fails or becomes unstable, while providing local current metering for real-time load monitoring.
Physically configured in a 1U horizontal rack form factor, PDUMH20HVAT installs in standard 19-inch cabinets across wiring closets, IDF/MDF rooms, and core racks. Its metal chassis with horizontal mounting orientation and included plug-lock retention hardware supports organized integration with rack cable channels and PDUs.
At the outlet side, the PDU distributes power through ten receptacles (eight IEC C13 and two IEC C19), sized for typical server, network, and storage devices in unified rack deployments. Local metering and visual indicators assist technicians with ensuring connected load remains within safe limits.
In a practical deployment, PDUMH20HVAT sits downstream of dual UPS feeds × for example, one from a UPS and one from a generator transfer switch × to maintain continuous rack power to servers and network switches. It is not appropriate where outlet-level switching, remote network management, or per-outlet control is required; a switched network-managed PDU model should be used for such capabilities.
