Deployment / Use Cases
This 1-foot power cable is ideal for scenarios where minimal cable length is preferred to reduce clutter and improve organization. Its compact design makes it well-suited for connecting devices in confined areas where longer cables would create unnecessary slack or tangling.
Common applications include linking UPS units, power distribution units (PDUs), or surge protectors to nearby IT equipment in server racks, under-desk installations, and media consoles. The blue color can also aid in cable identification and management within multi-cable environments, helping technicians quickly distinguish power cords from data or peripheral cables.
Server Rack Power Connections
Use this short cable to connect rack-mounted servers, switches, or PDUs to adjacent power sources, keeping cable runs neat and avoiding excess length that can impede airflow or access.
Desktop and Workstation Setups
Connect monitors, desktop computers, or printers to nearby power strips or outlets, minimizing visible cable clutter on or under desks for a cleaner workspace appearance.
Physical Profile
The cable measures exactly 1 foot (0.30 meters) in length, providing just enough reach for close-proximity connections without excess slack. Weighing approximately 0.80 ounces (22.68 grams), it is lightweight and easy to route through cable management channels or behind equipment. The blue PVC SJT jacket offers a consistent color that stands out for identification, while the flexible construction allows for tight bends without kinking or damage.

FAQ
What devices is this power cable compatible with?
This cable is compatible with any device that has a C13 power inlet, which is common on desktop computers, monitors, printers, network switches, and many UPS units. The NEMA 5-15P plug works with standard 125V AC wall outlets and power strips in North America.
What is the maximum power this cable can handle?
The cable is rated for 125 volts and 10 amps, which translates to a maximum power capacity of 1250 watts (125V × 10A). This is sufficient for most IT and office electronics, but always check your device's power requirements to ensure compatibility.
Why choose a 1-foot power cable over a longer one?
A 1-foot cable is ideal for reducing clutter in confined spaces like server racks, behind desks, or inside equipment enclosures. It minimizes excess slack that can impede airflow, cause tangling, or create a messy appearance, while still providing enough length for close-proximity connections.
What does the 18 AWG gauge mean for this cable?
18 AWG (American Wire Gauge) refers to the thickness of the copper conductors inside the cable. This gauge is appropriate for the 10-amp current rating over the 1-foot length, ensuring low resistance and efficient power delivery without overheating or voltage drop issues.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
No, this cable is designed for indoor use only. The PVC SJT jacket provides durability for typical office and data center environments but is not rated for outdoor exposure, moisture, or extreme temperatures. Always use cables specifically rated for outdoor conditions if needed.
What are the jacket materials, and why are they important?
The jacket is made of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) and Service Junior Thermoplastic (SJT). PVC offers flexibility and resistance to abrasion, while SJT is a robust thermoplastic that enhances durability and longevity. Together, they provide a tough yet pliable outer layer that protects the internal wires from physical damage and wear in everyday use.
What power capacity is listed for this UPS?
Power specifications help show where the unit fits best, including the type of load level, electrical environment, and backup role it is intended to support. These are usually the most decision-critical facts in a UPS or power-protection comparison.
What voltage details are listed?
The listed power specification is 125 V, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
