Description

StarTech 87L3-8400-POWER-CORD Power Extension Cord

Overview

This 4-foot (1.2 meter) StarTech 87L3-8400-POWER-CORD power extension cord provides a secure connection between your PDU or power strip and a device with an IEC C14 inlet. It's designed to prevent accidental disconnections in critical environments like server racks or surveillance equipment installations, ensuring continuous operation. The locking C13 connector mates with standard C14 inlets, offering a more reliable power link than a standard non-locking cord.

Compatibility

This cord is compatible with any equipment featuring an IEC 60320 C14 power inlet, commonly found on network switches, servers, PDU strips, and many commercial surveillance devices. The C13 connector is the standard female receptacle for IEC power cords.

Installation Notes

The cable is rated for 10A at 250V AC, suitable for most standard IT and surveillance equipment. Its SJT (3-conductor) construction with 18 AWG wire gauge ensures durability and safe operation within its specified current limits. The operating temperature range of -20 to 105°C (-4 to 221°F) allows for deployment in a variety of environments, including those with elevated temperatures found in some equipment racks.
