Technical Overview
This jumper cord implements the IEC 60320 international standard for appliance couplers, with a 3-pin C14 male connector on one end and a 3-pin C15 female connector on the other. The C14 connector typically plugs into power distribution units or UPS systems, while the C15 connector mates with compatible equipment power inputs.
The cord is rated for 120V AC operation at 13A maximum current, making it suitable for powering servers, network switches, storage arrays, and other IT infrastructure in regions using 120V power standards. The 3.3-foot length provides sufficient reach for most rack-to-rack or equipment-to-PDU connections without excessive cable management challenges.
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.

FAQ
What devices are compatible with this HPE jumper cord?
This cord connects any equipment with an IEC 60320 C15 power input to power sources with IEC 60320 C14 outputs. Typical compatible devices include servers, network switches, storage arrays, and some high-power workstations that use standardized power connectors.
What is the maximum power capacity of this jumper cord?
The cord is rated for 120V AC at 13A, providing a maximum power capacity of 1,560 watts (120V × 13A). This capacity supports most rack-mounted IT equipment while maintaining safety margins for continuous operation.
Can this cord be used in countries outside the listed localization regions?
While localized for Canada, United States, Japan, and Taiwan, the IEC 60320 connectors are internationally standardized. However, you must verify that the voltage and current ratings match your regional power standards before use in other countries.
What is the difference between IEC 60320 C14 and C15 connectors?
C14 connectors are typically found on power supplies and PDUs, while C15 connectors are usually on equipment power inputs. The C15 connector is rated for higher temperatures than C14, though both support the same electrical specifications in this cord's configuration.
Is this cord suitable for rack-mounted equipment installations?
Yes, the 3.3-foot length and standardized connectors make this cord ideal for rack-mounted installations. It provides sufficient reach for connecting equipment to vertically mounted PDUs within standard server racks while minimizing cable clutter.
Does this jumper cord include any safety certifications?
The cord complies with IEC 60320 international standards for appliance couplers. While specific safety certification details aren't provided in the , IEC 60320 compliance indicates adherence to recognized electrical safety and compatibility standards.
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.
What voltage details are listed?
The listed power specification is 120 V AC, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
