APC by Schneider Electric PDW32L21-20XC Cable Extender
Overview
The APC by Schneider Electric PDW32L21-20XC is a 9.75-meter (32 ft) cable extender designed to safely extend 5-wire, #10 AWG circuits. This black, male-to-female extender is crucial for deployments where standard power whips or cables do not reach the required location, particularly in commercial or industrial environments where precise power distribution is necessary. It supports up to 20A input current at 208V, ensuring compatibility with many standard power distribution units (PDUs) and IT infrastructure components.
Compatibility
This extender is specified for use with 5-wire, #10 AWG circuits, typically found in commercial power distribution systems. It connects a male plug to a female receptacle, facilitating the extension of power feeds for equipment that requires specific voltage and amperage ratings. While not tied to specific surveillance device models, it integrates into the broader power infrastructure supporting such systems, particularly where equipment is positioned further from the primary power source. The 208V input rating aligns with common enterprise power configurations.
Installation Notes
The PDW32L21-20XC has dimensions of 51 x 64 x 9750 mm and a package weight of 4.95 kg. The 9750mm length is the critical factor for deployment, allowing significant reach. It is designed for direct connection between a power source and a load, requiring no specialized tools beyond standard electrical connection practices. Ensure the connected equipment and source do not exceed the 20A and 208V ratings to maintain safety and operational integrity.
