Q: What does 'Metered Input' mean on the Eaton FlexPDU G2 MI?
A: Metered Input means the PDU measures and displays total power consumption at the inlet (input) level — including current (amps) and sometimes kWh — allowing data centre managers to monitor load and prevent circuit overloads, without per-outlet switching or monitoring.

Q: What is the input connector type for the FLXTMIC14C1?
A: The PDU features an IEC C14 input connector, which is the standard 3-pin male connector commonly used with C13-to-C14 power leads or rack PDU whips connecting to upstream power sources.

Q: How many outlets does this PDU provide?
A: The Eaton FlexPDU G2 MI (FLXTMIC14C1) provides 8 x IEC C13 output outlets, suitable for powering servers, switches, and other standard rack-mounted equipment.

Q: Is this PDU suitable for high-density rack deployments?
A: Yes. The 1U horizontal form factor and 8-outlet configuration make it a practical choice for high-density rack environments where space is at a premium and basic input-level power monitoring is required.

Q: Can I purchase the Eaton FLXTMIC14C1 in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware specialist and stocks Eaton power distribution products including the FlexPDU G2 range. Contact the team for pricing, availability, and volume enquiries.

Q: What is the maximum load supported by this PDU?
A: The PDU is rated for a single-phase 10A input. When using IEC C13 outlets, it is recommended to load the PDU to no more than 80% of its rated capacity (8A) to ensure safe, continuous operation.
