Vertiv 12970 Basic Surge PDU 0U 15A 120V | Rack Mount, Enterprise

Deliver clean rack-side power without giving up usable rack space. The Vertiv 12970 basic surge PDU mounts vertically in 0U, making it a strong fit for cabinets where every rack unit matters. With 15 A input at 120 V and 20 NEMA 5-15R outlets, it supports broad device distribution across servers, switches, storage, and auxiliary gear. Built-in surge protection adds a layer of defense for environments that do not have dependable facility-level suppression or for deployments that need extra protection at the point of use. That matters in edge closets, branch sites, and mixed-use racks where power quality can vary. The basic design keeps the focus on reliable distribution and practical protection rather than unnecessary complexity. For teams standardizing power across many sites, this PDU offers a straightforward way to improve rack discipline and reduce exposure to transient events. It is a sensible choice when you want a durable, space-efficient distribution point that supports enterprise uptime expectations.
