Legrand LINKEO C Rack PDU 16A Monitored

The Legrand LINKEO C Rack PDU is a zero-U vertical power distribution unit designed to maximise usable rack unit space in 19-inch and 600 mm open-frame racks while providing metered or monitored AC power distribution to server, storage, and networking equipment. The 049402 model is the monitored variant rated at 16 A / 230 V single-phase, featuring a combination of eight IEC C13 (10 A) and two IEC C19 (16 A) outlets to accommodate both standard server and high-draw GPU or UPS-bypass loads. The integrated current and energy meter displays real-time load current and accumulated kWh on a front-face LED display, and the unit's Ethernet port connects to the data centre network for SNMP v1/v2c/v3, HTTPS web interface, and Modbus TCP access — allowing the rack PDU to report to the data centre infrastructure management (DCIM) platform without additional hardware. The 0U vertical mount frees all 42U of rack space for IT equipment, eliminating the horizontal PDU shelf that consumes 1–2U per rack in many installations.

Each outlet on the LINKEO C PDU includes a surge suppressor rated to 13 kA (8/20 µs waveform per IEC 61643-11) that absorbs transient voltage spikes from the server room's UPS bypass circuit — an important protection layer in Saudi data centres where building-level surge protection is sometimes absent or inadequate on older installations. The IEC C19 outlets are rated for 16 A continuous, making the LINKEO C suitable for connecting high-density blade server chassis and GPU compute nodes that draw peak currents exceeding the 10 A rating of standard C13 outlets. The PDU body is constructed from UL94-V0 rated flame-retardant material to IEC 60695-11-10, a safety requirement that is increasingly mandated in Saudi data centre fit-outs by NCCE (National Centre for Cybersecurity) facility standards. A physical lock bracket option prevents accidental disconnection of power cords from individual outlets — a feature valued in high-availability environments where a single server disconnection can initiate a service failover sequence.

The Saudi data centre market has grown rapidly under Vision 2030's cloud-first government IT policy and the attraction of international hyperscale operators including AWS, Google Cloud, and Huawei Cloud to establish local availability zones in Riyadh. Each data centre rack requires between one and four PDUs depending on load and redundancy configuration, creating substantial demand for quality monitored rack PDUs in the Kingdom. Legrand's LINKEO C PDU is specified on CITC-licensed Tier III and Tier IV data centre builds in Riyadh and Jeddah, and on SEC's smart grid monitoring centre infrastructure projects where SNMP-monitored power distribution is a mandatory design requirement. The PDU's Modbus TCP interface is also used by SCADA-integrated industrial IT racks at ARAMCO operations facilities, where the power consumption data is logged alongside process variables for energy management reporting.

Razz Middle East stocks the Legrand LINKEO C PDU range in single-phase 16 A and 32 A configurations and the three-phase 16 A and 32 A variants for three-phase server racks. We supply matching IEC C13 and C19 locking power cords in standard lengths and custom-length options for non-standard rack deployments. Our team provides rack power audit services and Legrand DCIM integration configuration support, with SAR pricing and delivery throughout Saudi Arabia from regional stock.
