Review on Pyle PDBC70: 9 Outlet PDU Power Strip Surge Protector - 150 Joules, Heavy-Duty Electric Extension Cord with Rack Mount Protection and 9 Front Switches by Jim Cronin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Will definitely fit in a standard 1U rack slot

I received my unit and was nervous it wouldn't fit based on other reviews but when I put the extender on the rack studs they all did my fears allayed. One of three things seems to be happening. 1) Pyle changed the hole pattern 2) Another company is selling fakes 3) Other users were unaware that the hole spacing on the stands was uneven and half a meter short. 1U occupies three mounting holes on each side, and these mounting holes must be widely spaced on both sides of the center hole. If you're not part of U, you'll get a big gap and a small gap and the gear won't fit. I don't know what other people have experienced, but there was no such problem in my unit.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Big and bulky
