Product Features
Technical Overview
This power cord meets IEC 60320 standards with a C14 male connector on one end and a C21 female connector on the other, supporting three-conductor wiring for grounded applications. The heavy-duty construction includes high-temperature-rated materials that maintain integrity across a wide storage range from -4°F to 221°F (-20°C to 105°C).
The 14 AWG wire gauge minimizes voltage drop over the 2.5-foot length, ensuring efficient power transfer. The jacket combines Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) with Service Junior Thermoplastic (SJT) for abrasion resistance and flexibility in tight spaces. Localized for North American use, this cord is manufactured in Vietnam under Eaton's quality controls.
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.
Key Product Advantages

- 15A continuous current rating
- Three-conductor grounded design
Durable Construction
PVC/SJT jacket resists wear, cracking, and environmental stress, with a storage temperature range suited for warehouse or data center conditions.
- High-temperature materials
- Abrasion-resistant jacket
Deployment / Use Cases
This cord is purpose-built for IT infrastructure where reliable power connections are non-negotiable. It commonly links PDUs or UPS units to servers, switches, routers, and blade servers in rack-mounted configurations, providing a secure and standardized power interface.
In data centers, the C14 to C21 setup allows for cascading power distribution from a PDU to multiple devices, optimizing cable management. For network closets or office server rooms, the 2.5-foot length fits neatly without excess slack, reducing clutter. It also supports temporary setups for testing or staging equipment, thanks to its durable and portable design.
