Can I use a vertical PDU outside a network cabinet?

Yes. Although the vertical models are designed with rack and cabinet installations in mind, they also work well as high-outlet-count indoor power strips in other locations.

The vertical description explains how the PDU fits a rack; it does not restrict the unit to cabinet use.

Do I need a 10-inch or 19-inch PDU? Why would I choose a vertical PDU instead of a horizontal one? Does the 1U or 1.5U in a vertical PDU name mean it uses that much front rack space? What is a mixed-output PDU?
