Product Features
Technical Overview
This power extension cord employs IEC 60320 C14 and C15 connectors, which are industry-standard interfaces for desktop computing equipment. The C14 male connector plugs into power sources such as UPS units, PDUs, or wall outlets, while the C15 female connector accepts the C14 plug from PCs or monitors. Both connectors feature 3-pin designs that ensure proper grounding and electrical safety.
The 2-foot (0.61 m) length provides practical extension without excessive cable clutter, making it suitable for rear-panel connections in desk setups or rack-mounted equipment. Blue coloration aids in quick identification during installation and maintenance. The cord's lightweight construction and flexible design facilitate easy routing and organization in constrained spaces.

Key Product Advantages
This extension cord addresses common workspace challenges by providing just enough length to reposition devices for optimal ergonomics or cable management. The IEC 60320 compliance ensures compatibility with a wide range of IT power infrastructure, while the lifetime warranty offers peace of mind for long-term deployments.
Space-Efficient Design
At only 2 feet long, this cord adds necessary reach without creating excess slack that can complicate cable organization or pose tripping hazards in office environments.
- Minimizes cable clutter
- Ideal for tight spaces behind desks
- Easy to coil and store
Visual Management
The distinctive blue color allows technicians to quickly distinguish power cables from data cables during setup, troubleshooting, or reconfiguration tasks.
- Reduces installation errors
- Simplifies inventory management
- Enhances workspace aesthetics
Deployment / Use Cases
This extension cord is primarily deployed in desktop computing environments where power outlets are positioned inconveniently relative to equipment placement. Common scenarios include workstations where the power strip is mounted under desks, media editing stations requiring precise device positioning, or temporary setups for presentations and events.
In rack-mounted configurations, the short length helps connect servers or network equipment to nearby PDUs without excessive cable slack. The cord also serves as a practical solution for testing benches, repair stations, and IT classrooms where frequent equipment reconfiguration occurs. Its compatibility with standard PC and monitor power supplies makes it a versatile accessory for both permanent installations and mobile setups.

FAQ
What devices are compatible with this power extension cord?
This cord is compatible with desktop computers, monitors, and other equipment that use standard IEC 60320 C14 power connectors. The C15 female end accepts C14 plugs from devices, while the C14 male end connects to power sources like UPS units, PDUs, or wall outlets. It's specifically designed for PC and monitor setups in office and workstation environments.
How long is the extension cord, and is the length sufficient for typical setups?
The cord measures 2 feet (0.61 meters) in length. This provides enough extension to reposition devices when power outlets are slightly out of reach, such as when connecting equipment to under-desk power strips or adjacent rack PDUs. It's designed to minimize excess cable while offering practical flexibility for common workspace configurations.
What is the significance of the blue color on this power cord?
The blue color serves as a visual management tool, allowing users to quickly identify power cables among other cabling (like network or display cables) during installation, troubleshooting, or reorganization. This reduces errors, simplifies cable tracing, and enhances overall workspace organization, especially in environments with multiple connected devices.
Does this extension cord include grounding protection?
Yes, the cord features 3-pin connectors that include grounding pins on both the C14 male and C15 female ends. This ensures proper electrical grounding between the power source and connected equipment, maintaining safety standards and protecting against potential electrical faults in desktop computing environments.
What warranty coverage does Axiom provide for this power extension cord?
Axiom backs this power extension cord with a lifetime limited warranty. This coverage reflects the product's durable construction and reliability for long-term use in business IT environments. The warranty provides assurance against manufacturing defects throughout the cord's service life in typical office and workstation applications.
Can this cord be used in rack-mounted equipment installations?
Yes, the 2-foot length and standard IEC connectors make this cord suitable for rack environments where servers, switches, or other equipment need short connections to nearby power distribution units (PDUs). Its compact design helps avoid excessive cable slack in rack cabinets, though for longer reaches, users may need to consider alternative cord lengths or cable management accessories.
What power capacity is listed for this UPS?
Power specifications help show where the unit fits best, including the type of load level, electrical environment, and backup role it is intended to support. These are usually the most decision-critical facts in a UPS or power-protection comparison.
Is this unit designed for rack or tower deployment?
For power-protection products, the most useful FAQ topics are usually capacity, outlet arrangement, runtime characteristics, and installation format. Those details do more to explain real deployment fit than generic marketing language.
