Deployment / Use Cases
The C2G 17543 power cord serves as a fundamental component in enterprise power infrastructure. Its 15A/250V rating makes it ideal for connecting PDUs to rack-mounted equipment, ensuring stable power delivery to servers, network switches, and storage arrays.
In data center environments, the green color facilitates quick identification in dense cable management systems. The 4-foot length provides sufficient reach for typical rack configurations while minimizing excess cable that can impede airflow. This cord also supports backup power systems, connecting UPS units to critical equipment during power events.
Data Center Power Distribution
Connect PDU outlets to server power supplies using the standardized IEC320C13 interface, creating reliable power chains in rack environments.
Network Infrastructure Support
Power network switches and routers with the 15A capacity needed for PoE+ and high-port-density equipment.
Physical Profile
The green 14AWG cord measures 4 feet (1.22 meters) with a weight of 7.60 ounces (215.46 grams). This compact yet substantial construction balances flexibility with durability, allowing for neat routing in cable management systems without excessive bulk. The green PVC jacket provides both visual identification and protection against abrasion in crowded IT environments.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 7.60 oz (215.46 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

FAQ
What devices is this power cord compatible with?
This C2G power cord connects devices with IEC320C13 female power inlets to power sources with IEC320C14 outlets. It's specifically designed for PDU (Power Distribution Unit), switch, and server applications in data center and server room environments where standardized power connections are required.
What is the maximum current and voltage this cord can handle?
The cord is rated for 15 amps at 250 volts AC. The 14AWG wire gauge provides sufficient current-carrying capacity for this rating while minimizing voltage drop over the 4-foot length. This makes it suitable for equipment with higher power demands than standard 10A or 13A cords can support.
How does the 14AWG gauge compare to other power cords?
14AWG is thicker than the 16AWG or 18AWG wires found in many standard power cords. This larger gauge reduces electrical resistance, allowing the cord to carry more current (15A vs typical 10A) with less voltage drop and heat generation. It's particularly beneficial for longer runs or equipment with higher power requirements.
What are the environmental compliance certifications?
This power cord complies with RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) regulations. These certifications ensure the cord contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, or other restricted substances, making it suitable for environmentally conscious IT deployments.
What warranty does this power cord include?
C2G provides a 3-year limited warranty for this power cord. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions, offering assurance of quality and durability for professional IT installations where reliable power connectivity is essential.
Why is the cord color green?
The green color serves as a visual identifier in complex cable management systems. In data centers and server rooms where multiple power cords may be present, color coding helps technicians quickly identify specific circuits, power sources, or equipment types, reducing installation errors and simplifying maintenance.
What power capacity is listed for this UPS?
Power specifications help show where C2G 4ft 14AWG Power Cord (IEC320C14 to IEC320C13) - Green - For PDU, Switch, Server - 250 V AC / 15 A - Green - 4 ft (1.22 m) Cord - / (17543) fits best, including the kind of load level, electrical environment, and backup role it is intended to support.
