Description

StarTech PXT101_3 3ft Flexible Computer Power Cord

Overview

The StarTech PXT101_3 is a 3-foot (1-meter) flexible power cord designed to reliably connect standard computer equipment and peripherals to a wall outlet or PDU. Featuring an 18 AWG wire gauge, this cord ensures sufficient current handling for most IT devices, preventing voltage drops and overheating. It's ideal for tight server rack installations or desktop setups where cable length is critical, ensuring your StarTech equipment receives consistent power.

Compatibility

This power cord is compatible with any device requiring a NEMA 5-15P plug (standard North American 3-prong grounded outlet) and an IEC 60320 C13 receptacle. This includes a wide range of IT equipment such as monitors, desktop computers, printers, network switches, and many surveillance devices. Specifically, it's suitable for powering StarTech KVM switches, docking stations, and external hard drive enclosures that utilize the C13 connector.

Installation Notes

The cord operates within a temperature range of 37°F to 140°F (3°C to 60°C). The PVC jacket provides flexibility and durability for routine installations. Ensure the connected device's power draw does not exceed the cord's 10A rating at 125V.
