FAQs
What is a Zero U rack PDU and why does it matter?
A Zero U PDU occupies no vertical space in your rack, allowing you to use all available U-height for servers and equipment. The APC AP9568 mounts horizontally, maximising rack density in data centres and server rooms.
Can this PDU work with standard Australian power outlets?
Yes. The APC AP9568 accepts input voltages from 200–240VAC and operates at both 50 and 60 Hz, making it fully compatible with Australian mains supply.
How many devices can I connect to this PDU?
The PDU has 15 IEC 320 C13 outlets. However, the total load must not exceed 10A (2300VA). The number of devices you can safely connect depends on the power consumption of each device.
What is the difference between C13 and other IEC outlet types?
C13 is the standard outlet type for most servers, monitors, and IT equipment. It mates with a C12 plug. This PDU does not have switched outlets or metering—it provides basic, always-on power distribution.
Is this PDU suitable for use with a UPS system?
Yes. The APC AP9568 can be connected downstream of a UPS to distribute backup power to multiple devices. However, the total load must stay within the PDU's 10A and 2300VA limits.
What warranty and support does APC provide?
The APC AP9568 includes a 12-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Support terms vary by region; contact Hyetech Australia for local support options.
Can I daisy-chain multiple PDUs together?
No. The APC AP9568 has a single input cord and is not designed for daisy-chaining. Each PDU requires its own dedicated power source.
