Product Features
Technical Overview
This splitter cord meets IEC 60320 standards for connector safety and interoperability. The C14 male plug interfaces with standard power supply inputs, while the dual C13 female receptacles accept common computer and peripheral power cords. Three conductors within the 16-gauge wiring ensure proper grounding and current capacity for stable operation.
Rated for 120V and 230V AC operation at 13 amps, the cord accommodates North American and international voltage requirements. The Service Junior Thermoplastic jacket resists abrasion, oils, and moisture, maintaining integrity in varied environmental conditions.
This section brings together practical product details such as First End Connector Type, First End Connector Detail, Second End Connector Type, Voltage Rating, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.
