FAQ
What devices is this power cord kit compatible with?
This power cord kit is specifically designed for APC AP8000 Series Rack Power Distribution Units (PDUs). The locking connectors and electrical specifications are optimized for these rack PDUs, though the IEC 60320 C19 to C20 configuration may work with other compatible equipment.
What connectors does this power cord use?
The main extension cord features IEC 60320 C19 to C20 connectors with a 90-degree locking design. The kit also includes six jumper cords (three left-angle and three right-angle) for additional configuration flexibility in rack environments.
How long is the power extension cord?
The primary extension cord measures 4 feet (1.21 meters) in length. This provides sufficient reach for most rack installations while maintaining clean cable management and avoiding excessive slack that could impede airflow.
What is included in the package?
The kit includes one AP8714R Power Extension Cord, three left-angle jumper cords, and three right-angle jumper cords. This comprehensive set provides multiple configuration options for different rack layouts and equipment placements.
What warranty coverage does this product have?
This power cord kit comes with a 2-year limited warranty that includes repair or replacement coverage. The warranty protects against defects in materials and workmanship when used according to specifications with compatible APC AP8000 series rack PDUs.
Why does this cord have locking connectors?
The locking IEC connectors prevent accidental disconnections that could disrupt power to critical equipment. This feature is particularly important in data centers and server rooms where maintaining continuous power is essential for uptime and data integrity.
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.
Is this unit designed for rack or tower deployment?
For power-protection products, the most useful FAQ topics are usually capacity, outlet arrangement, runtime characteristics, and installation format. Those details do more to explain real deployment fit than generic marketing language.
