Deployment / Use Cases
The PAC101R3 extension cord serves multiple roles in business IT environments where additional reach or outlet accessibility is needed. Its 13A rating supports most desktop computers, monitors, network equipment, and peripheral devices commonly found in office settings.
In server rooms and data closets, this cable helps position equipment optimally while maintaining proper power connections. The right-angle plug is especially useful when rack-mounted PDUs or wall outlets are recessed or surrounded by other cables. For workstations and home offices, the flat design allows the cord to run neatly under desks or along baseboards without creating tripping hazards.
Office Workstation Extension
Extend power from wall outlets to desks positioned away from walls, enabling flexible furniture arrangements while maintaining safe power connections for computers and peripherals.
Server and Network Cabinet Use
Provide additional reach for rack-mounted equipment when outlet placement isn't ideal, with the right-angle plug fitting cleanly in crowded power distribution scenarios.
Localization and Operating System
