The unit’s plentiful outlets—24 x IEC 60320 C13/C15 and 24 x IEC 60320 C13/C15/C19/C21—allow a wide variety of devices to be powered from a single distribution point, reducing clutter from daisy-chained power strips and simplifying cable management. A 10-foot cord length provides flexible deployment options within standard 19-inch racks, and the vertical, rack-mountable design makes installation straightforward in both new builds and retrofits. Whether you manage a single rack or a full data center, the Panduit G6 48-Outlets PDU delivers dependable power distribution, enhanced safety, and streamlined operations through intelligent power monitoring and remote control capabilities.

• The G6 is a monitored, switched PDU that furnishes real-time power metrics and remote control over outlet groups. Operators can monitor load trends, identify hotspots, and execute controlled power cycles to minimize downtime during maintenance or power events, all delivered through a secure network connection via the RJ-45 port. This centralized visibility helps protect critical IT assets and optimize energy use across the rack ecosystem.
• Durable, safety-focused enclosure with IP44 protection. The Panduit G6 is built to endure challenging environments, resisting dust intrusion and splashes while delivering consistent performance. The IEC 60309 3P+N+E 6h 60/63A configuration supports heavy-load equipment and diverse devices, making it suitable for data centers, telecommunication closets, and equipment rooms where reliability matters most.
• Extensive outlet configuration supports diverse IT loads. Featuring 24 x IEC 60320 C13/C15 outlets and 24 x IEC 60320 C13/C15/C19/C21 outlets, this PDU accommodates servers, storage systems, network devices, PDUs, and power strips in a single, organized strip. This flexibility reduces cable clutter, improves airflow, and simplifies maintenance by providing multiple, easily identifiable power-cing outlets in one space.
• Flexible installation for space efficiency. The G6’s vertical design is tailored for standard 19-inch racks, enabling efficient use of rack space without sacrificing accessibility. The 10-foot cord length offers routing freedom, letting you position the PDU for optimal cable management and minimized tension on device power cords. Its compact footprint supports dense rack layouts while preserving serviceability for routine checks and replacements.
• Simple configuration, protection, and management. Beyond delivering power, the G6 provides practical protection against overloads and enables centralized power control. With remote monitoring capabilities via the network interface, IT and facilities teams can set thresholds, receive alerts, and plan maintenance windows—reducing the risk of unplanned outages and supporting proactive capacity planning across the data center lifecycle.

How to install Panduit G6 48-Outlets PDU

• Plan your rack power layout. Assess your equipment, assign critical devices to dedicated outlets, and map load distribution to keep per-phase balance and prevent overloading any single circuit.
• Prepare the rack. Ensure the cabinet is clean, accessible, and capable of supporting the vertical PDU with secure mounting points. Verify clearance for cable routing and adequate airflow around the devices.
• Mount the PDU. Use the included mounting hardware to secure the G6 in a vertical orientation inside the rack. Align with the rack rails to ensure stable support and to facilitate easy access to outlets and monitoring interfaces.
• Connect input power. Insert the 10 ft power cord into a compatible IEC 60309 power source, ensuring full engagement of the connector and routing the cord to minimize tension or interference with other equipment.
• Route device power and configure monitoring. Connect IT devices to the PDU outlets, label cables for quick identification, and establish the PDU's network connection. Access the monitoring interface to enable remote monitoring, set alert thresholds, and configure any switched outlets if supported by your facility management system.
