Tripp Lite by Eaton NOT for Patient-Care Vicinity - UL 1363 1U Rackmount Power Strip with 12 Hospital-Grade Outlets, 15 ft. (4.57 m) Cord

Designed for critical IT environments and healthcare facilities where power reliability is non-negotiable, this Tripp Lite by Eaton RS1215-HG rackmount power strip delivers safe, flexible, and scalable power distribution outside patient-care vicinities. Engineered to live in admin suites, rack enclosures, and network closets, it provides a compact 1U footprint that maximizes rack density without sacrificing safety or performance. With 12 hospital-grade outlets and a long 15-foot cord, you can elegantly power servers, switches, routers, medical IT devices, and related equipment while meeting stringent UL 1363 requirements. This unit is the right choice when you need reliable power distribution that aligns with healthcare facility policies, IT infrastructure standards, and the demanding rhythms of modern clinics and hospitals where patient care areas must remain separate from non-patient spaces.

• 12 hospital-grade outlets within a 1U rackmount footprint: Optimize rack space while delivering dedicated segments of power for servers, switches, storage devices, and telecom gear in crowded enclosures. The hospital-grade outlets are built for durable, repeated connection and disconnection, reducing wear on plugs and reducing downtime caused by loose connections in busy data centers and clinics.
• UL 1363 compliant, 120V operation with NEMA 5-15P: Built to meet rigorous safety standards for healthcare-related power distribution, this unit provides reliable, controlled power delivery in environments that demand high levels of protection and performance across 50/60 Hz power supplies.
• 15 ft (4.57 m) cord length for flexible routing: The extended cord reach minimizes the need for additional extension cords and complex cabling configurations, enabling cleaner installations and safer power delivery paths from a central power source to equipment racks or closet installations.
• NOT for patient-care vicinities: Specifically designed to keep power distribution outside of patient-care areas, making it ideal for administrative offices, IT racks, network closets, and facility rooms where strict separation from clinical spaces is required and power reliability remains essential.
• Robust rack-mount design for daily use in demanding environments: Engineered for continuous operation, this 1U power strip supports heavy IT loads, protects critical equipment, and helps maintain uptime by providing a reliable, centralized power source within professional data and communications infrastructure.

How to install Tripp Lite RS1215-HG

• Prepare the rack: Choose a suitable 1U rack space in an enclosure or cabinet that is outside patient-care vicinities and has adequate ventilation. Ensure the area around the rack is clear to allow for safe cable routing and heat dissipation.
• Mount the power strip: Use the provided rackmount ears or rails to secure the RS1215-HG into the chosen 1U position. Confirm that the unit is level and firmly fastened to withstand the movement and vibration typical of busy data centers or clinical IT rooms.
• Route the power cord: Extend the 15 ft cord from the rear or side of the unit to a nearby appropriately rated 120V outlet. Avoid running the cord under carpet or through tight gaps where it could be damaged or create a tripping hazard.
• Connect IT equipment: Plug servers, switches, storage devices, and other non-patient-care IT gear into the 12 hospital-grade outlets. Distribute devices evenly to minimize heat buildup and ensure stable power distribution across racks.
• Verify connections and organize cabling: Check all outlets for a solid connection, route cables neatly with ties or Velcro, and label each outlet if needed for faster maintenance. Power on the rack and confirm that all connected devices receive power without interruption.
• Test and document: Once powered, perform a basic functional test of critical equipment and document the installation for facility records and IT asset management. Periodically inspect outlet connections and cabling to maintain reliability over time.
