WattBox WB-100-VPS-8 Vertical Rack Power Strip 8-Outlets

Space-saving vertical WattBox power strip with 8 rotated outlets for clean, brick-friendly power distribution in racks and cabinets.

The WattBox WB-100-VPS-8 is the “more outlets, same clean rack” upgrade for AV and networking installs. It mounts vertically to rack rails without consuming U-space, and the rotated outlet layout makes life easier when you have oversized adapters and wall warts that normally fight for room.

Quick guidance

Mount it where the outlet rotation supports clean cable drops and keeps power bricks from blocking adjacent outlets. A good habit is grouping devices by function, network gear together, AV sources together, so resets and troubleshooting are faster later. If you share your rack layout and what you are powering, contact us and we will recommend the cleanest mounting position and a simple outlet plan.

1. Is this surge protection or just power distribution?
   It’s mainly power distribution. If you want surge protection and conditioning, use a WattBox conditioner or surge model.
   
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?
   Low to mid draw devices like modem, router, switch, NVR, streamers, and controllers. Avoid overloading the circuit with high-draw equipment.
