FAQ
What types of plugs can connect to the CX hybrid outlets?
The CX hybrid outlets accommodate both standard C14 plugs and higher-capacity C20 plugs. This UL-tested hybrid design eliminates the need for outlet adapters and provides forward compatibility with equipment using either plug type, making the PDU suitable for current infrastructure and future equipment upgrades.
How does the RamLock locking mechanism work?
RamLock provides a mechanical locking system that securely retains power cords in the outlets. When a C14 or C20 plug is inserted, the locking mechanism engages to prevent accidental disconnection due to vibration, cable tension, or incidental contact. This ensures reliable power connections in server racks and data center environments where equipment stability is critical.
