FAQ
What devices can I connect with this splitter cord?
This splitter cord is designed for computers, UPS systems, surge protectors, and data processing units that use standard IEC C13 power connectors. The dual outputs allow you to power two compatible devices simultaneously from a single power source, making it suitable for workstations, server racks, and equipment clusters.
What voltage ranges does this splitter cord support?
The cord is rated for both 120V and 230V AC applications, with compatibility across the 100-250 VAC range. This dual-voltage design makes it suitable for North American 120V systems and international 230V environments without requiring different models or adapters.
What is the maximum current this cord can handle?
This splitter cord has a 13-amp current rating, allowing it to deliver substantial power to connected devices. The 16 AWG conductors ensure minimal voltage drop even at higher current loads, maintaining reliable performance for demanding equipment like computers and UPS units.
How long is the cord, and is the length sufficient for my setup?
The cord measures 1.2 feet (0.36 meters), which is ideal for connecting adjacent equipment in server racks, network cabinets, or desktop configurations. This compact length minimizes cable clutter while providing enough reach for typical power distribution scenarios in constrained spaces.
What type of connectors does this splitter cord use?
The input end features one IEC 60320 C14 male connector (3-pin) that plugs into power sources, while the output end splits to two IEC 60320 C13 female connectors (3-pin) that accept standard computer and peripheral power cords. This configuration follows common industry standards for power distribution.
What warranty coverage does this product include?
Monoprice provides a lifetime limited warranty for this splitter cord, covering manufacturing defects and material failures. The product also complies with RoHS and REACH environmental standards, ensuring it meets regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.
What power capacity is listed for this UPS?
