FAQ
What devices are compatible with this C14-to-C13 power cord?
This cord connects any equipment with a C14 inlet (typically power supplies on servers, UPS units, or some monitors) to power sources with C13 outlets (commonly found on PDUs, UPS output ports, or wall-mounted power strips). It's standard for most enterprise IT hardware power connections.
What is the maximum power capacity of this 18 AWG power cord?
The cord is rated for 250 volts at 10 amps, providing up to 2,500 watts of power capacity. The 18 AWG wire gauge supports this current rating while maintaining flexibility for installation and cable management in rack and desktop environments.
How does the 8-foot length compare to other power cord options?
The 8-foot (2.44 meter) length offers practical reach for most business IT installations. It provides sufficient distance between equipment and power sources in rack-mounted configurations, under-desk setups, or when connecting to nearby power distribution units without excessive cable slack.
What does the SJT rating mean for the jacket material?
SJT stands for Service Junior Thermoplastic, indicating the jacket is designed for junior service applications where flexibility, durability, and resistance to abrasion, oils, and moisture are important. This makes the cord suitable for typical office and data center environments.
Can this cord be used with international voltage standards?
The 250-volt rating accommodates common North American 120V and 208-240V systems as well as many international 220-240V standards. Always verify that both the power source and connected equipment support the specific voltage being delivered through the cord.
What are the primary applications for C14-to-C13 power cords in business IT?
These cords primarily connect UPS battery backup units to servers and network equipment, link power distribution units to rack-mounted devices, and power monitors and workstations from standard outlets. They serve as fundamental components in both data center and office power infrastructure.
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 250 V, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
