The 12816 Basic Horizontal Rack‑Mount Power Strip provides a compact, 1U solution for distributing power within standard 19‑inch enclosures. Designed for data‑center and enterprise networking environments, it delivers reliable, surge‑protected power to multiple devices from a single inlet. Its straightforward layout simplifies installation and reduces cable clutter. Each unit features a master lighted switch and an optional thermal circuit breaker, enabling quick visual status checks and added protection against overloads. Surge‑protect circuitry safeguards sensitive equipment from voltage spikes commonly encountered in unconditioned line power. The strip includes multiple NEMA‑type receptacles, offering flexibility for a range of server and networking gear. The strip mounts horizontally using either a 19‑inch EIA or a 23‑inch W bracket, allowing seamless integration into existing rack configurations. Its low‑profile 1U height conserves valuable rack space while maintaining easy access to each outlet. The robust metal housing meets CPI's quality standards for durability in demanding environments. By consolidating power connections, the 12816 power strip improves airflow and reduces the risk of hot‑spot formation within dense equipment rows. Operators benefit from simplified troubleshooting thanks to the illuminated on/off switch and optional breaker indicator. This reliable power distribution supports high‑performance computing and AI workloads that demand uninterrupted energy. CPI backs the 12816 with comprehensive technical documentation and worldwide distributor support, ensuring rapid deployment and serviceability. Customers can leverage the CPI Product Designer tool to plan enclosure layouts that include the basic horizontal rack‑mount power strip. The combination of quality construction and CPI's expert assistance helps data centers maintain optimal uptime.
