Product Features
Technical Overview
This power cord meets IEC 60320 standards for connector compatibility and safety. The C14 male connector plugs into common power supplies or PDUs, while the C21 female end accepts compatible equipment inputs, ensuring proper polarization and secure mating. The 15A, 250V AC rating provides ample capacity for powering high-draw devices without voltage drop or overheating concerns.
The 14 AWG wire gauge minimizes resistance over the 6-foot length, maintaining efficient power delivery. The jacket combines Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) and Service Junior Thermoplastic (SJT) materials for flexibility, abrasion resistance, and high-temperature tolerance up to 105°C. These technical attributes make it suitable for continuous operation in server rooms, network closets, and industrial settings.
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.
