The 1589T8C1BKRF is a 1U horizontal rackmount power distribution unit that delivers 20A single-phase power to equipment mounted in standard 19-inch racks and cabinets. Eight heavy-duty NEMA 5-20R receptacles face the front of the unit, with no rear outlets, making it a straightforward choice for IT, networking, AV, telecom, test and industrial equipment that is cabled from the front of the rack.
Power is supplied through an included cord terminated in a NEMA L5-20P locking plug, so the PDU stays connected to the branch circuit even in high-traffic racks. The series uses 12/3 SJT cord construction. A resettable circuit breaker is built in to help protect against accidental electrical overload, and this T-suffix model uses a power indicator light rather than an on/off switch for clear visual indication that the strip is energized. The 5-20R receptacles accept both NEMA 5-15P and 5-20P equipment plugs.
Overall dimensions are 1.72 in (44 mm) high by 19.00 in (483 mm) wide by 2.66 in (68 mm) deep, and shipping weight is 4 lbs (1.81 kg). Construction is black painted steel front and back, with the series specified as a textured RAL9005 black powder coat finish meeting applicable GREENGUARD indoor air quality and RoHS requirements.
The drawing for 1589T8C1BKRF lists a rating of 125 VAC, 60 Hz, 20 Amps, CSA certified to C22.2 No. 21-95 and 42-99, and UL Recognized to UL 1363 under UL File E166039. The part is RoHS and REACH compliant, USMCA compliant, TAA compliant for applicable U.S. federal procurement, and made in Canada.
