CyberPower RKBS15S2F10R Rackbar Surge Protector

Was looking for a power bar / surge suppressor before adding on a UPS later on in my rack. I noticed a lot of the top rated / best selling rackbar had 6 outlets in the front and 6 in the rear, and so on -- I didn't understand this. After going to CyberPowers site and poking around a little more I discovered this line compared to the more popular ones. Looking at the comparison it seemed like a no brainer, there's more joule coverage overall, more NEMA ports in the rear, two extra up front just in case, and actual surge suppression (If you wanted more in the rear on the other line your option was to go 20 amp, or lose out on surge suppression). Seemed way more fitting the bill than anything else. Received it in a great packaging, I had to put the wire bar on manually which I thought was a bit of an odd setup but everything went together pretty easily. Wired everything up and works great. Got the twelve outlets in the back and two up front. Easy to hook up to a 19" rack width too. There was also an option to set the depth a little more into the rack if you so chose, seemed like a few configuration options that I didn't particularly need.

Was looking for a trusted surge suppressor for a smaller 6u rack. This thing fits the bill. It installs well and all the hardware and mountpoints are sturdy enough from what i can tell. For a smaller rack where you probably don't need all the plugs this offers you can space out larger adapters without much trouble. I wouldn't recommend this is you however needed all 12 outlets as having no room for larger adapters could be an issue.

This is a great power strip with flexible mounting options. It comes with a cable management bracket which is a great idea, but also kind of the weak spot of the product; once it's attached, it's impossible to get plugs in/out of the back of the power strip if there's a device installed in the rack slot directly above it. Also, the bracket is close enough to the power strip that it can be impossible to plug in larger wall warts. A flat cable support bar with anchors for Velcro would work just as well, and be somewhat easier to use in practice.

The power strip is working very well for my laser cutting setup. It has provided power for my laser, water chiller, exhaust filtration fan and laptop without issue. Very happy with it.

Got this to help my 1/4 rack and 1/2 rack systems mounted to the front to get power without having to get super long power cords. Works great. Even has front power ports that I didn't think were going to be useful but they turn out to be super nice for the Monitor cart.

Great product. One minor issue is the distance separating each outlet. Makes it a little difficult to plug things in when the outlets aren’t facing you. The ground wire is such a great addition.

The CyberPower Rackmounted Surge Protector arrived on time and in perfect condition. The unit is built well and installed easily. For “wall wort” type connections I suggest getting the short 3 prong extension cords as not to block the outlets. I have not had any voltage surges so I cannot comment on its performance.

When I got the box it was opened as it had no tape on box, but all items seem to be there and no damage seems to have been done. Just be aware that this might not arrive whole or undamaged because of lack of shipping prep.

I bought this as I wanted a power bar to connect a bunch of low draw devices (switch, router, modem, POE injector) to a single UPS backup outlet. The cord is LONG, but ultimately makes less of a mess as I'm able to bring power to all the devices and shorten those cords up a lot. I don't even have it in a rack yet. Ultimately its priced barely more than a decent strip power bar and still works fine out of a rack. I purposely picked this one as it does not have a power switch, don't need to shut all that stuff off by accident.

Pros: 15' 14gauge shielded wiring, very sturdy. Any other time in my life the cable length would've been a godsend, but was an inconvenience for me that was easily overcome by ziptie's. Sturdy construction, lots of outlets for my immediate use and cleaned up a ton of power cord mess from my wall outlet. Holds up very well under a hefty power load, which means I don't have to have a quad outlet splitter in my wall socket. Coloring matched my rackmount and it was easy to install. Cons: There's a cable guide / tie-down bar that is a bit flimsy and was more of an annoyance/frustration than anything. The tiny screws were a pain to get in because the slots in the bar were too close to the outer casing, so I had to find a thinner screw driver. In the end I just tossed it into the trash because it didn't work for me, was too much frustration and by the time I had it on, I found I'd put it on upside-down so yeah... that piece didn't survive my temper ;) I wasn't too concerned with the price, but I did get it initially at a reduced price which is what caught my eye. Would buy it again (and ditch that bar again, too!!) if I needed to. Definitely worth it if you're looking for a solid power bar for your rackmount.

Very good quality PDU. Installed it in my home network rack, I can connect all my device into it without any issues. Be aware that you might need some 1ft extension for those bulky adaptors that would otherwise block one or two slots since these are pretty close to each other. but this isn't the fault of this PDU, just something to keep in mind depending on your device power adapters. 15 ft cord is also pretty awesome for that far-reach wall plug.

Tbh I'd rather have a 20A unit but this one does fine, don't thing it's a full on surge suppressor but is fine. Rather have this than a cheap plastic one. No issues as of yet.

Works really good, I like how the ports are all laid out. So far no issues, powering lots of expensive server equipment.
