APC Metered 2G 30A ZeroU 100-240V Rack Power Distribution Unit

The APC AP8870 is a rack power distribution unit from the second-generation metered line. It delivers up to 30 amps of 100 to 240 volt power through a NEMA L14-30P input and distributes that power to 30 outlets, including 16 NEMA 5-20R, 12 IEC C13, and 2 IEC C19 receptacles, so a single unit can support a diverse mix of servers, storage systems, and network gear.

The vertical ZeroU design mounts along the side or rear of an APC NetShelter enclosure and leaves every horizontal rack unit free for equipment. A 10 foot power cord simplifies placement within the row, while a locking IEC connector and ultra low-profile circuit breakers help maintain secure connections and an uncluttered cabinet interior.

Built-in metering and network access give administrators clear visibility into energy use. Current, voltage, and power draw can be checked on the local display or through a secure web interface, SNMP, or Telnet. User-defined thresholds trigger real-time alerts, allowing staff to correct overload conditions before they become critical. These features make the AP8870 a practical choice for data centers, colocation sites, and edge racks that require dependable power distribution and proactive monitoring.
