Product Features
Technical Overview
This standard power cord is engineered for compatibility with devices that accept a C5 connector on the equipment end and a UK plug on the wall outlet end. The C5 connector, commonly known as a cloverleaf or Mickey Mouse connector, provides a secure three-pin connection that is widely used in IT and networking hardware for safe power delivery.
The cord's 6 ft (1.83 m) length translates to approximately 1.83 meters, offering sufficient reach for most deployment scenarios without excessive slack. This measurement ensures compatibility with standard rack configurations and workstation setups where power outlets may be positioned at varying distances from the equipment.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cord Length, Country of Origin, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
