Convenient rackmount option

I needed a splitter for my new 15U server rack and preferred the rackmount splitter. I originally bought a competitor's strip but ended up returning it as it wasn't UL approved. I feel more comfortable having UL-approved electrical equipment in my home. So far this has worked well. I connected it to my UPS and attached it to the back of the rack so the power cords weren't visible. It offers plenty of outlets for my various devices. However, plugging plugs into outlets can be a bit tricky. I think I'd prefer if they were free, but that can be an issue if you don't have a lot of space to deal with them. The orientation of the outlets is ideal for wall warts as they will not block adjacent outlets when connected to the strip. I have quite a few wall wart devices so this feature is a must have. The 15-foot cord was overkill for my needs, but I can see it being handy for some people. The construction is quite heavy.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Available in white only
