This 2U metered Rack PDU is a fantastic solution for medium-density power requirements. The combination of (12) C13 and (4) C19 outlets is ideal for our environment, providing flexibility for connecting a mix of devices. The metering capability ensures accurate monitoring of power usage, which has been invaluable for optimizing energy management. Installation was straightforward, and the build quality inspires confidence for long-term reliability.
Pros: Ease of Management, High Quality, High Confidence Level in 24/7 Uptime
Cons: Runs Hot

apc - APC NetShelter Metered Rack PDU, 2U, 5.0kW,
on July 25, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installed three of these 2U PDUs across our server racks and they've been rock solid. The 12 C13 + 4 C19 outlet configuration hits the sweet spot for mixed server environments - plenty of standard server connections plus the high-amp C19s for power-hungry gear like blade chassis. The integrated LCD meter is clear and easy to read, showing real-time amperage which helps prevent circuit overloads during equipment moves. Build quality is typical APC - heavy gauge metal construction that feels bulletproof. Cable management is well thought out with the angled outlet orientation keeping power cords organized. 208V/30A capacity handles our needs perfectly, and we're running around 22-24A on each without issues. The network management port integration works seamlessly with our monitoring setup. Only minor gripes: the LCD could be brighter in low-light server rooms, and I wish it showed wattage in addition to amperage. Also, no redundant power input option at this price point. For the money though, it's a reliable workhorse that does exactly what it should - distribute clean power and give you visibility into consumption. Would definitely buy again for future rack deployments.
Pros: High Quality

Can Handle Anything

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've outfitted dozens of racks over the years, and this APC NetShelter Metered PDU hits the sweet spot for most deployments. The 12 C13 and 4 C19 outlets handle everything from switches to servers without playing Tetris with your power cables, and that 5kW capacity at 208V gives you plenty of headroom for growth. What I really appreciate is the metering - being able to see actual power consumption at a glance has helped me catch overloaded circuits before they became problems and made capacity planning way easier. The 2U form factor keeps it compact, and the build quality is solid APC - no flimsy outlet mounts or cheap plastic. Installation was straightforward with our existing NetShelter racks. If you're managing multiple racks and need visibility into power usage without breaking the bank on a full monitoring solution, this PDU is a no-brainer.
Pros: Ease of Management, Good Value
