Product Features
Technical Overview
This splitter cord employs a robust electrical design with NEMA L6-20 connectors, which are twist-lock style connectors commonly used for 20-amp, 220-volt applications in data centers, server rooms, and industrial environments. The 10AWG wire gauge ensures minimal voltage drop and safe operation at the full 20-amp rating over its short length.
The construction meets RoHS environmental compliance standards, indicating the absence of hazardous substances like lead, mercury, and cadmium. This makes the cable suitable for use in facilities with strict environmental policies.
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.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.
Key Product Advantages
The primary advantage of this Y splitter is its ability to efficiently utilize a single high-capacity power source. Instead of requiring additional PDU outlets or UPS connections, you can power two devices from one, optimizing your power infrastructure and reducing cable clutter.
Space-Efficient Design
With a 1-foot length, this splitter minimizes excess cable in dense rack setups, improving airflow and organization while maintaining accessibility for maintenance.
- Ideal for rack-mounted PDUs and UPS units
- Reduces cable management challenges
High-Current Capability
Rated for 20 amps at 220V AC, it supports power-hungry equipment such as servers, network switches, or power amplifiers without risk of overload.
- Suitable for 220V AC applications
- Handles continuous 20-amp loads
Deployment / Use Cases
This splitter is specifically designed for environments where power distribution needs to be expanded from a limited number of high-amperage outlets. It is commonly deployed in data centers, server racks, and telecom closets where PDUs and UPS units provide power to multiple devices.
Typical use cases include connecting two rack-mounted servers to a single PDU outlet, splitting a UPS output to power both a network switch and a storage array, or extending power in industrial settings where 220V twist-lock connectors are standard. The compact form factor makes it especially useful in fully populated racks where longer cables would create management issues.

User Manual
FAQ
What connectors does this Y splitter use?
This splitter uses NEMA L6-20 connectors. It has one L6-20P male plug on the input end and two L6-20R female receptacles on the output end. These are twist-lock connectors designed for 20-amp, 220-volt applications, providing a secure connection that prevents accidental disconnection.
What is the power rating of this splitter cable?
The cable is rated for 20 amps at 220 volts AC. It uses 10AWG wire gauge to safely handle this current over its 1-foot length. This makes it suitable for distributing power to two devices that collectively draw up to 20 amps from a single high-capacity source like a PDU or UPS.
How long is the cable, and why is the length important?
The cable is 1 foot (0.30 meters) long. This short length is ideal for rack-mounted installations where minimizing cable clutter is crucial for airflow and organization. It provides enough slack for flexible positioning without creating excess cable that needs to be managed in tight spaces.
Is this splitter RoHS compliant?
Yes, this splitter is RoHS compliant, meaning it meets the Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive. It is manufactured without hazardous materials like lead, mercury, and cadmium, making it suitable for use in environments with strict environmental and safety regulations.
What is the warranty for this product?
Tripp Lite provides a lifetime limited warranty for this splitter cable. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, offering long-term reliability and peace of mind for critical power distribution applications.
What are typical use cases for this Y splitter?
Common use cases include data center racks where a single PDU outlet needs to power two servers, server rooms where a UPS output is split for a network switch and storage device, or industrial settings with 220V twist-lock power sources. It is especially useful in space-constrained installations where cable management is a priority.
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 220 V AC, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
