Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Always have available outlets in your rack with Tripp Lite's RS-1215-RA rackmount power strip. The RS-1215-RA provides 12 (6 front and 6 rear) right-angle NEMA 5-15 outlets in a rugged, all-metal 1U housing guaranteed to last for life. The outlets are placed at a right angle to accommodate bulky transformers. The included mounting hardware allows for 1U or 0U (vertical) rackmount, wall-mount, under-counter and other installations, making the RS-1215-RA ideal for a variety of uses including back office, network cabinet, and network closet applications. With the extra length provided by the 15-ft. power cord, you don't have to install the RS-1215-RA next to outlets you already have; it can be mounted in any rack position or across the room and deliver reliable service where you need it most. A lighted and covered On/Off switch helps prevent accidental shut-offs, while a 15-amp circuit breaker guards against dangerous circuit overloads. Additionally, every Tripp Lite power strip comes with a Lifetime Warranty for guaranteed peace of mind.

The Versatile Solution for Commercial Applications

With rackmount, wall-mount, under-counter and other creative installation options, a rugged housing and plenty of outlets, Tripp Lite's RS-1215-RA is ideal for back office, network cabinet, and network closet applications. It provides reliable, unfiltered, alternate waveform electrical pass-through, making it ideal for power distribution from a UPS or generator to supported equipment. Tripp Lite's 1U power outlet strips can also be used in server rooms and large-scale data centers in standard 19-inch racks or with 0U (vertical) mounting. The included hardware allows the RS-1215-RA to be installed wherever reliable, multi-outlet power distribution is required.

12 Convenient Right-Angle Outlets Accommodate Bulky Transformers

Featuring 12 outlets compatible with all standard rackmount equipment, the RS-1215-RA is an ideal solution for applications or locations that require power to many devices simultaneously. The unit's outlets are placed at right angles in order to accommodate even the bulkiest of transformers with ease.

Power Previously Un-Powered Areas with Extra Long Cord

Install the RS-1215-RA far away from its power source and provide power distribution to previously un-powered areas with the extra long, 15-ft. power cord. The RS-1215-RA can be mounted in a different area, or a completely different room from where it draws AC power, putting you in control of getting reliable power service where you need it most.

Premium Safety Features

The lighted On/Off switch features a translucent cover that eliminates accidental shut offs while still allowing you to see whether the RS-1215-RA is operational with a glance. A built-in, 15-amp circuit breaker prevents dangerous circuit overloads that could damage equipment. The breaker immediately shuts off AC input to the RS-1215-RA when it detects that the equipment load is drawing too much power.

Reliable, Heavy-Duty Housing

The RS-1215-RA's rugged, all-metal housing is durably constructed making it a great solution for all rackmount installations.

Lifetime Warranty

Get peace of mind with Tripp Lite's Limited Lifetime Warranty, which protects your product against any technical defects or malfunctions for as long as you use it.

I need a rack mount power strip with 6 outlets on front and 6 outlets on back. Check!
I need many low power outlets rather than a few high power outlets. Check!
Why pay up to 50% more for 20amp model when 15amp model is more than enough. Check!
Power should be unfiltered. Check!
Cap over power switch is nice touch to avoid painful accidents. Check!

This review is from: Tripp Lite RS-1215-RA Multiple Outlet Strip 15-Amp 12 outlets Right-Angled 15ft Cord (Electronics)

Most home electrical boxes are rated at 20 amp MAX for the entire circuit, so unless this is the only item on the line, why pay for the bigger units?

My HTPC might draw 5 amps if EVERYTHING is turned on, but an extension cord on the floor is ugly. The power cord is long enough to direct wire to one of your outlets inside the wall (hire an electrician if you're unsure how to do it)

This power strip is great quality. It IS industrial grade...meaning there is no cheap flimsy crap on it. I'd recommend this to anyone who has a use for it.
