CyberPower Switched ATS PDU PDU44003

Single-phase 100–120 V high-current rack ATS PDU intended to provide a redundant source path for rack equipment. Check exact input connector and maximum continuous load on the specific regional unit.

Exact model specifications

Catalog category / topologyPower protection — dual-source automatic transfer switch and rack power distribution.
Input feeds / voltage / currentDual NEMA L5-30P source plugs; nominal 100–120 V AC, single phase, 30 A circuit class (maximum usable load may be derated; verify the product label and datasheet).
Phases / frequencySingle phase, 50/60 Hz where supported by the exact regional configuration; verify the manufacturer nameplate. Never connect incompatible or unsynchronized building supplies unless explicitly allowed by the manufacturer's instructions.
Output receptacles / connectors16 × NEMA 5-20R receptacles plus 1 × NEMA L5-30R outlet (as configured for this model); 120 V single-phase output.
Switching and transfer behaviorAutomatically switches the load between source A and source B when the preferred source is absent or outside acceptable limits; source priority, threshold, transfer time and return/retransfer behavior are model/configuration specific and must be taken from the cited manual. No battery is present, so the ATS cannot provide outage runtime.
Network / meteringNetwork-managed switched ATS PDU with local display and power/load reporting; outlet control and supported protocols are documented in the model-specific datasheet/user guide.
Rack form / mountingRack-mount power distribution/transfer unit; 1U horizontal rack form where specified for this model. Confirm rack depth, mounting hardware and airflow clearance in the installation guide.
Host compatibilityDesigned for compatible single-cord equipment within the source voltage, frequency, current, output connector and transfer-time limits. Verify PSU input range and ride-through tolerance. Loads with dual power supplies should generally use independently sourced feeds as directed by their manufacturer; this ATS is not a substitute for an approved redundant-power design.
Electrical safetyUse only correctly rated, grounded sources and manufacturer-approved cords; keep A/B feeds within specified voltage/phase/current. Do not exceed branch, aggregate, or per-outlet limits; do not daisy-chain. Disconnect both feeds before service. Do not open energized equipment. Have hardwired models installed by qualified personnel under applicable electrical codes and confirm required overcurrent protection/certification for the region.

Use and archival notes

  • Automatic transfer preserves power only when the alternate source is present and compatible; it does not store energy.
  • Record both source identities, measured voltages, load, transfer settings, network-card revision and observed transfer test results separately from manufacturer specifications.
  • Keep the chassis, plugs and receptacles dry and unobstructed. Remove from service if cords, grounding, contacts or enclosure show damage, overheating or arcing.
  • Follow the exact manufacturer installation and safety instructions; this archive is not an electrical design or installation guide.
