Product Features
Technical Overview
This rack power cable utilizes IEC 60320 C13 and C14 connectors, which are widely adopted in IT and networking equipment for standardized power interfaces. The first end features two C13 connectors, allowing simultaneous power connections to two devices from a single C14 source, which is ideal for optimizing rack space and reducing cable clutter. The second end's C14 connector plugs directly into power distribution units (PDUs), UPS units, or standard power outlets with corresponding C13 receptacles.
The 6.7 ft (2.05 m) cord length provides sufficient slack for routing within standard 19-inch racks, accommodating various equipment depths and layout configurations. This length supports both vertical and horizontal cable management systems, facilitating airflow and maintenance access. The cable's construction meets industry electrical safety standards, ensuring reliable power transmission without signal interference in dense rack environments.
Key Product Advantages
The Lenovo 00Y3047 rack power cable offers several distinct advantages for IT infrastructure management. Its dual C13 connector design enables power sharing between two devices, reducing the number of cables required per rack and simplifying power distribution layouts. This configuration is particularly valuable in high-density server environments where PDU outlet availability is limited and efficient space utilization is critical.
Standardized Compatibility
IEC 60320 C13 and C14 connectors ensure broad compatibility with servers, switches, storage arrays, and other rack-mounted equipment from Lenovo and other manufacturers.
- Works with most enterprise hardware
- Eliminates proprietary connector issues
Optimized Rack Deployment
The 6.7 ft cord length is specifically chosen for rack installations, providing enough reach for equipment at various rack positions without excessive slack.
- Facilitates neat cable management
- Supports standard rack depths
Deployment / Use Cases
This power cable is designed for deployment in data center racks, server rooms, network closets, and other IT infrastructure environments. Its primary use case involves connecting two rack-mounted devices to a single power source, such as a PDU or UPS unit, which is common in server and networking equipment configurations. The cable supports both new installations and replacement scenarios where existing power cables need upgrading or standardization.
Typical applications include powering dual-server configurations, connecting network switches with additional appliances, or linking storage arrays to shared power sources. The cable is also suitable for test lab environments where flexible power connectivity is required for equipment validation and certification processes. Its standardized connectors make it interchangeable across different equipment generations, supporting long-term infrastructure lifecycle management.
Data Center Rack Integration
Ideal for 19-inch rack installations where space optimization and cable management are priorities, supporting both front and rear rack mounting configurations.
Equipment Expansion Scenarios
Useful when adding new devices to existing racks without requiring additional PDU outlets, leveraging the dual-connector design to maximize available power infrastructure.

FAQ
What types of equipment are compatible with this Lenovo power cable?
This cable is compatible with any equipment featuring IEC 60320 C13 power inlets, which includes most servers, network switches, storage arrays, and other rack-mounted devices from Lenovo and other manufacturers. The C14 connector connects to power distribution units (PDUs), UPS systems, or standard power outlets with C13 receptacles, making it versatile for various IT infrastructure deployments.
How does the dual C13 connector configuration benefit rack installations?
The dual IEC 60320 C13 connectors allow you to power two separate devices from a single power source connection, reducing the number of cables required per rack. This configuration optimizes PDU outlet usage, decreases cable clutter, and simplifies power management in high-density rack environments where outlet availability is often limited.
Is the 6.7 ft cord length sufficient for standard rack deployments?
Yes, the 6.7 ft (2.05 m) cord length is specifically designed for standard 19-inch rack installations. It provides enough reach to connect equipment at various rack positions, including full-depth servers, while allowing for proper cable routing around rack rails and management arms without excessive slack that could impede airflow or maintenance access.
Can this cable be used with non-Lenovo equipment?
Absolutely. While manufactured by Lenovo, this cable uses industry-standard IEC 60320 C13 and C14 connectors that are universally adopted across IT hardware. It works seamlessly with servers, switches, and other equipment from Dell, HPE, Cisco, and other manufacturers that utilize standard C13 power inlets, making it an interchangeable component in mixed-vendor environments.
What warranty coverage does this power cable include?
The Lenovo 00Y3047 rack power cable comes with a 1-year limited warranty from the manufacturer, Lenovo Group Limited. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions, providing assurance of reliable performance for your critical power connectivity needs in server and networking environments.
How does this cable support data center cable management best practices?
The cable's optimized length and dual-connector design support several cable management best practices. The 6.7 ft length minimizes excess slack while providing routing flexibility, and the dual connectors reduce overall cable count. These features help maintain organized rack layouts, improve airflow for cooling efficiency, and facilitate easier equipment maintenance and troubleshooting in dense data center environments.
