FAQ
What devices are compatible with this HPE power cord?
This cord is compatible with any equipment featuring an IEC 60320 C14 inlet, which is common on servers, desktop computers, monitors, printers, and network devices. It serves as a standard power cable for HPE hardware and many third-party IT products requiring 230V AC power.
What is the voltage and current rating of the AF562A power cord?
The AF562A is rated for 230 volts alternating current (V AC) and 10 amperes (A). This specification supports operation in regions with 220-240V power systems and can deliver up to 2300 watts of power to connected devices under full load.
How long is the power cord, and is the length sufficient for rack mounting?
The cord measures 6.6 feet (2 meters) in length. This provides adequate reach for typical rack-mounted equipment, allowing connection to power distribution units (PDUs) or uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) within standard server racks while maintaining tidy cable management.
What type of connector does this power cord have?
It features an IEC 60320 C13 female connector on one end. This three-pin connector is designed to plug into C14 inlets on IT equipment, ensuring a secure and standardized connection for power delivery.
Is this power cord suitable for use in North America or other regions?
The 230V AC rating makes it suitable for regions with 220-240V power systems, such as Europe, Asia, and parts of Africa. For North American 110-120V systems, a different voltage-rated cord would be required unless used with a compatible step-up transformer.
Can this cord be used as a replacement for damaged or lost power cables?
Yes, the AF562A serves as a direct replacement for standard power cords with IEC 60320 C13 connectors. It matches the specifications of many original equipment manufacturer (OEM) cables for HPE and other brands, providing reliable power connectivity for servers, workstations, and peripherals.
