WattBox WB-100-VPS-20 Vertical Rack Power Strip 20-Outlets

High-capacity WattBox vertical power strip with 20 rotated outlets, built to power dense racks cleanly without using any rack units.

The WattBox WB-100-VPS-20 is the right move when a rack starts getting crowded. With 20 rotated outlets and a vertical, rail-mounted design, it delivers a lot of power distribution in a clean footprint, while keeping bulky adapters from blocking neighboring outlets. It is a practical upgrade for AV racks, IT cabinets, and network enclosures that keep growing over time.

Why installers choose this vertical rack power strip

• 20 rotated outlets provide dense power distribution with better spacing for power bricks

• Durable aluminum housing is built for long-term use in busy racks and cabinets
• Flexible mounting, works on rack rails or wall-mounted vertically or horizontally
• Front-facing power cord helps with routing and access in tight rack spaces

Best use cases

• AV racks with lots of sources, control gear, extenders, and power adapters
• Network and IT cabinets powering modem, router, switches, and PoE accessories
• Commercial racks where density is high and clean serviceability is required

Quick guidance

Before mounting, decide which side of the rack gives you the cleanest cable drops and the least blocked airflow. Use the rotated outlets intentionally for bulky adapters, and group devices by function so future troubleshooting is fast. If you share your rack layout and device list, contact us and we will suggest the cleanest mounting position and an outlet plan that leaves room to grow.

1. Is this surge protection or just power distribution?
   It’s mainly power distribution. If you need surge protection and conditioning, add a WattBox conditioner or surge protector upstream.
   
2. Will it mount in a rack cabinet?
   Yes. It’s designed for vertical mounting, usually on the side rails or rear of the cabinet depending on your rack layout.
   
3. What should I plug into it, and what should I avoid?
   Use it for low to mid draw gear like modem, router, switches, NVRs, and controllers. Avoid overloading it with high-draw amps or appliances.
