Ideally, the PDUs that provide the NEMA 5-20R or 5-15R receptacles in the rack should have the NEMA L5-20P on their input cord.
If a new PDU needs to be purchased anyway...
I suspect the Akamai servers have IEC inputs. It might be worth considering a PDU with IEC connectors on the output side. This could provide enough outputs in 1U vs needing 2U for two PDUs.
If you do this, make sure you mount the strain reliefs on the PDUs and cable-tie the IEC plugs into the sockets. My experience with IEC PDUs has been generally positive, so long as you do this. If you don't, you are just asking for power issues as cables fall out (or partially out) of the PDUs.
