APC APDU10451SW

Overview

The APC APDU10451SW is a switched rack power distribution unit designed to deliver 14.4 kW of three-phase 208 V power across 42 individually controllable outlets. It provides precise remote management of each outlet through a secure web interface, SNMP, or a local display, making it ideal for data centers, labs, and colocation sites that require flexible and reliable power distribution. Its compact 2.2-inch-wide chassis fits vertically in zero-U rack space, preserving valuable rack units for other equipment.

Key features

• Individually switched outlets allow remote control and monitoring of connected devices, reducing the need for physical access to the rack.
• Four-in-one receptacle design supports C13, C15, C19, and C21 plugs, accommodating a wide range of servers, storage, and network appliances with a single unit.
• Alternating phase outlet layout shortens cable runs and promotes balanced power loading, improving efficiency and reducing heat buildup.
• Integrated metering provides voltage, current, power, energy, and phase data with one-percent accuracy to support effective capacity planning and prevent overloads.
• Gigabit Ethernet port with cascading capability enables multiple PDUs to share a single IP address, simplifying network management and conserving switch ports.
• Chassis designed for vertical mounting in zero-U rack space, maximizing usable rack units for other critical hardware.
• Rated for continuous operation in ambient temperatures up to 60 °C, suitable for hot-aisle deployments in dense environments.
• Optional environmental sensors extend monitoring to temperature and humidity, enhancing visibility into rack conditions.
• Complies with TAA and UL 62368-1 standards, meeting requirements for government and enterprise procurement.

Connectivity and compatibility

This PDU supports a broad range of equipment thanks to its four-in-one outlet design, which accepts multiple plug types commonly used in servers and networking gear. The gigabit Ethernet port ensures fast and reliable network communication for remote management, while the cascading port allows multiple units to be linked and managed under a single IP address. This setup reduces network complexity and conserves valuable switch ports in large deployments.

Performance and reliability

Designed for demanding environments, the unit operates continuously at high ambient temperatures up to 60 °C, making it well suited for hot-aisle configurations in data centers. Its precise metering and balanced phase layout help maintain stable power delivery and prevent overloads, which is critical for protecting sensitive IT equipment. The robust certifications ensure compliance with strict safety and procurement standards.

Ideal uses and environments

The APDU10451SW fits well in dense data centers, evolving laboratory setups, and remote colocation facilities where remote outlet control reduces the need for onsite visits. Its compact vertical mounting preserves rack space, making it a strong choice for installations where maximizing equipment density is a priority. The optional environmental sensors add valuable insight for teams managing temperature and humidity-sensitive equipment.

Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery. Items must be unused, in the same condition received, with tags, manuals, accessories, and original, unaltered packaging. Any item kept will be deducted from the refund. Start a return by sending us an email. Items sent back without approval may be refused or returned to the sender.

Some items are not returnable: opened TVs/combos/monitors 37″+, opened computers or software, electronic downloads, opened consumables (film, paper, bulbs, media, ink), custom or modified computers, special-order or “nonreturnable” items, submerged underwater gear, and opened educational media.

After inspection, refunds are issued to the original payment method; allow 5–7 business days for the credit to post. Shipping, handling, customs duties, and import taxes are nonrefundable. If an item is used, incomplete, or not in original condition, a 30% restocking fee may apply. Direct exchanges are not offered; purchase the replacement and return the original for a refund.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
