Description

StarTech PAC101R3 AC Power Extension Cord

Overview

The StarTech PAC101R3 is a 3-foot (0.9m) power extension cable designed to bridge the gap between a power outlet and your equipment's power supply. It utilizes 16 AWG wiring, capable of handling up to 13A at 125V AC, making it suitable for extending power to devices like network video recorders, switches, or cameras that use a standard NEMA 5-15 power input. The cable features a straight NEMA 5-15 connector on one end and a right-angle NEMA 5-15 connector on the other, providing flexibility in tight installations where a straight plug might obstruct other connections or prevent equipment from sitting flush against a wall.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any device requiring a standard NEMA 5-15 power input and a 3-prong grounded connection. This includes most standard desktop computers, monitors, printers, and a wide range of surveillance equipment power supplies, such as those found on many StarTech NVRs, power distribution units, and select IP cameras. It is also suitable for extending power from a UPS or surge protector.

Installation Notes

The cable jacket is constructed from PVC, rated VW-1 for fire resistance. It operates within a temperature range of -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F), allowing for deployment in various environmental conditions. The 16 AWG wire gauge ensures sufficient current carrying capacity for most standard IT and surveillance devices without excessive voltage drop over its 3-foot length.
